Never let the truth get in the way of a bs narrative.

DCE told management at the end of 2023 that he wanted out.
Mestrov and Spoony knew exactly what DCE wanted to do for a long time.

Yet, nothing said from DCE last season about leaving. Mestrov and Spoony are also silly buggers as well.

We let go utility players like Humphreys and Weeks and we keep Arthur
We deserve what we get

Bozo, how many times can this be said before you get it mate. Humphreys wasn’t let go, he was off contract & chose himself to move on. As for Weekes I don’t think he would have made any difference last night at all

I can't believe someone, in particular Arthur or Brooks, didn't try at least one grubber kick through the line. They have no football instinct.
Obviously the plan was to kick deep and hope for a dropped ball. Well, you'd think after this tactic didn't work the first 10 times you'd change it up.
Brooks continues to disappoint me. Normally he's a good tackler but not tonight. His attack is inneffective. Time to drop him and promote TT2, either to 5/8 or on the wing and give Hoppa a chance at 5/8.
Overall, there is something missing from the mindset of most of our team. To play so tough one week, and so listlessly the next, is infuriating. Seems like they only play well when they are expected to lose.

I actually didn’t think we were that tough last week. Cowboys were dog awful. We’ve had one good display in 2mths and that was against Penrith.

He got a lot of poor passes on the 5th tackle, but he just hasnt got it.

File with Cooper Johns.

Agreed mate, if Walsh is in the top 30 squad and in the box with the coaches like he was last week in Townsville I don’t know why he isn’t being given a crack. Things couldn’t have been better for Arthur to perform tonight and he couldn’t get it done… how would he look against a half decent team that weren’t missing their key players?? Just a career reserve grader performing as such.

Arthur was probably the right call last night. As if Walsh played and we got done, you know what the narrative would be today. That said, next game without dce, we gotta try something different. I also think the trip away for Walsh was possibly the first step in him getting a game during origin. Prob next one v titans or v souths depending on nsw cup form.

What did you expect DCE to do? Come out in 2024 and say he is leaving in 2026. Seriously

He was denied an early release.

Maybe he should have in 2024 for the sake of the club and not his own interests.
