Gold Coast Titans head coach Des Hasler expressed his frustration following a narrow one-point defeat to the Wests Tigers at Leichhardt on Sunday.
He criticized both his team and the refereeing decisions during the match.
Despite briefly leading in the second half, the Titans delivered a disappointing performance, ultimately losing after Adam Doueihi kicked his first career field goal to clinch the game.
Referee Belinda Sharpe faced scrutiny for her officiating in the second half; however, Hasler made it clear that he wouldn't place all the blame on her.
"It's really disappointing that in the second half we fumble, we bumble, we miss tackles, we throw balls over the sideline, we get carried over the sideline and we complete 9 from 15 sets," Hasler remarked during his post-match address.
He added, "I'm really disappointed in that performance.
It was really dumb."
