[TDS-Reporter]

Canterbury coach Trent Barrett was left disappointed with a few basic areas that played into Penrith's hands but otherwise saw patches of improvement during the side's 28-0 loss on Saturday.

I’m glad he is. Honeymoon period always helps

There was definitely improvement in our attack against the Knights.. I think if it was last year we probably score one out of the 3 tries.. likely the last one which was pretty much a gift

we desperately need meters from our forwards otherwise we're not going to get many opportunities to attack going forward

The 28-0 score line doesn’t tell the full story.
At 10-0 before half time Penrith had 60% of the ball with all the calls going there way.
Second half we had the ball 30% and 1 penalty and down to 12 men which team can even compete.

it's often going to be that way regardless of penalty counts just because we play so much in our own end that guys start going for desperate plays and losing the ball or some other stuff up.. they've got to use this Broncos game to fire up and get some confidence for going forward

I get what you’re saying but it’s hard to go forward when you’re on the back foot all the time.

Yeah I know man I think Jack looked ok in round one, Waddell made decent meters in round 2 (for a Bulldog).. Thompson will help.. we really need more from Ogden and Renouf.. We need forwards running together as well like the Roosters.. get the short passes going like Dogs 2012 I dunno ahaha fuck being a coach

 

[boxer]

Yeah I agree we do need more from our forwards hopefully we turn up against the broncos as it will be a dry track.

 

[Captain Ibis]

yeah.. I reckon Renouf could be a real beast in the comp so hopefully he can find form as he is coming off contract

 

[boxer]

Will be interesting to see there mentality going into this game.

 

[BomberBurton]

Someone needs to send them wooden spoons to get the message across to the players.

 

[spiritofaslan]

Team just needs a win on the board to boost confidence. If we can't get one over the Broncos, it could seriously free fall our season as we have some tough games coming up.

 

[BomberBurton]

So, do these cunts deserve wooden spoons yet?

 

[Bad Billy]

Beaten 20+ by last years wooden spooners. I wonder if Barrett still sees improvement?

 

[Sleeky]

i didn’t watch it, seriously lost the passion for garbage

 

[BomberBurton]

How long have we've signed Barrett for?
Do we need Brown as an assistant coach to slap sense into him?

 

[spiritofaslan]

It's hard to stay interested when we constantly underperform. We are like a lawnmower that's almost run out of fuel.

 

[Captain Ibis]

The biggest concern is that there is legit nothing to build on... Every game is getting worse
