Missed the last 25 mins. What happened to Oates?

Mistimed a run off a Milford dump pass and ran full-pelt into Milf's shoulder who was getting tackled by Cleary at the same time. KO'd himself

Nice little Rugbypass convo with Joel Caine saying he hates seeing that Corey Oates stuff.

Look Fittler is actually making a good point, I don't think he is trying to be a jerk.

It wasn't like the ball spilled out, live it appeared the Penrith player wrestled the ball free from Oates who was out cold. At some point the tackle is either made or play has to be called.

The handling has been piss poor, but really fucking happy with the effort in defence.

Apart from his usual dumb penalty, moga has been pretty good
Yeah I quoted the wrong post. Moga is playing like a future immortal. Come on Tautau! Give us this effort trhe next to weeks too! Lead us to the promised land!

Not a great half. We're not getting a lot of mileage out of this rejigged spine. We're also missing Oates big time. Big runs from him and our backs set the platform for our early dominance in yardage which has now evaporated.

Some positives in holding them to nil despite less possession, losing the penalty count and 63% completion. Would get us killed against whoever we play next week if we make it that far.

Dare say Penrith would have scored if they hadn't gone to CHN a million times.

If we are even allowed to get down their end of the fields we'll destroy them. But, the refs have allowed Panthers to slow down the ruck to disgusting levels. We hold down Peachey for half of what they're doing to us and, fucking penalty.

We haven't had any chances at attacking their try line but they've had plenty of chances against ours, yet we lead 6-0. Just need to cut out the errors, hold the ball and gain field position, we should win.

Milford needs to stand up here. Benji is out of sorts.

12/19 completions and 8 errors, we are pathetic at the wrong time of year. That said, Penrith had 18 plays in the 20 and came up with nothing.

Awful first half of football. Fortunately Penrith are telegraphing all of their plays and giving the Broncos defence a night off.

Get the feeling this one will go down to the wire and will be decided on an error more than good play.

Benny should be good by off his nut at half time.

The error count looks bad but about half of those errors are from 50/50 high pressure situations, We are making half breaks and making errors. If we could just make the passes stick we win

I don't think we were that bad, just us getting to cocky at points and offloading it back 10 metres to no one and incompletions sets, our defence has been much better.
