Poor kick by Hawkins, poor miss by hohaia then another poor miss for the try.
Cooper didn’t even like making a tackle. You have to be better than that.

Our lineout throwing is dreadful.

Red. Why a shocking tackle.
If you start high that’s the result. Had to be red.

Best thing the ref did all game.

@kev shocking technique. Learn to tackle Hawkins. One guy the Lions can’t lose is Numia.
@canes4life while he is my least favourite player and not someone I will defend, but he is usually a bloody brave and good defender, not really about learning, just a poor attempt.
3 weeks away I expect.

Worst part of our performance was the lack of intent. A ball would fall to the ground and we would just stand around and watch instead of diving on it. Haven't seen us wave the white flag like that in a long time.
Hawkins has probably had his time at this level but at least he was trying - his red card will probably save Cooper from getting dropped next week...he looked like he didn't want to be there.

@taniwharugby they have some major work to do. Te Whata Colley, Grant, Tou, Hohaia, Leilua not great.
@kev yep all them, plus Moemoedonu and Cooper, and a mixed bag from the likes of Tua, Reihana, Rush, Li then McNamara and Hallam-Eames were very quiet, all made for a pretty dire performance!
BOy, bet they are regretting not getting Matich in now, that game was tailor made for him, reckon he was worth 14 points out there, just by making 2 tackles!
Next week, I dunno what we do...I was pretty happy overall with the side that was named, but they were so poor as a unit it is hard to really take much from the game.

Cooper not even trying to tackle was disappointing. Thought he would be ok at Fullback but based on that? Reihana is fantastic so if he wants to play at 1st, job is his.
Like you say Chiefy the lack of intent in all phases was evident. Not sure what coaches did but nothing was evident in that performance. As a team they have to turn this around.

Hearing that Ranger has a broken arm ,definitely season ending if it’s the case

Sad. He is a big player for us.
Backline of Nock, Reihana, Gregory, Tua, Hyland, Macalai, Rush would be great.
-
@winger he was solid. Didn’t let the jersey down at all, he’s bigger than I thought he was aswell.
Plumtree was the standout in the forwards, PUJ in the backs.
Only blemish on the game was Numia get hit high at the end there.
