Round 8 - Broncos vs Titans

Just re watched all our tries and one thing I noticed was that Milford never celebrates a try. Could be nothing but he hardly even breaks out an air punch and for Arthur’s try he didn’t even join the celebration huddle at all.

Fair enough. So you're saying the people who were actually at the game voted for Isaako. Hmmpph, seems I'm not alone in thinking that the one player who scored more points than the rest of the team was the MOM. How weird, you'd think if TPJ was the best on ground the crowd might have noticed. Guess they're all stupid too.

That doesn't mean I thought there wasn't other great contributions especially from TPJ, Haas, Gamble, Oates etc. In fact there weren't any bad players and only Milford had a standard/average game.

So now you're using the crowd as your defence...Wow, you're next level. Because the crowd who are half filled with morons voted the guy who made a few linebreaks as MOM that makes it fact hahaha.

Here's a quick breakdown of Isaako involvements tonight:

Proctor try - Isaako way out of position.
Thompson try - Isaako way out of position.
Brimson try - Isaako way out of position.
Peachey try - Not his fault, did his job taking the man with the ball.
Herbie try - Good catch and pass by Isaako.
Isaako try - Good ball by Milford to put him through a huge hole, and great right foot step to finish it
Coates try - Awesome step to get past a rubbish Kelly effort and poor kick chase, then put Gamble away, really good to watch.
Isaako try 2 - Literally all TPJ and he supported well.
Oates try - All Oates
Arthars try - Simple catch and pass similar to Herbie effort.
Fifita try - Not involved, no fault of his.
Kelly no try - This was horrible from Isaako, he was walking under the posts and didn't try to get involved, luckily TPJ held him up and stripped the ball.
Rein try - Isaako bought his dummy and over ran the ruck, could have stopped it.

So he was personally responsible for 3 tries, and a better fullback would have stopped the Rein effort, although most of the blame on that try is on Levi. So out of the Titans 5 tries tonight, he was solely responsible for 3 of them, and shared some blame on another, and he is some peoples MOM.


But as long as the fans at the ground think he was the best, you're spot on. Fool.

Gamble will need throat surgery after today- screaming for the ball to get at Souths left with Piakura.

If he needed surgery two weeks ago he will need one of those voice activation things now.

Gamble made a difference tonight and that’s his thing. I thought back to 2019 when he came back from Sydney.

Very energetic and generally makes a difference to games. Adapts really well to change, nice pass too.

When he came back to Redcliffe last year after his stint at the Tigers three games stand out- Dolphins were down 22-10 with 12 minutes to go against Ipswich and they go left three times and score- Gamble was massive in all of them and then he kicks the winner from the sideline after the siren.

Against the unbeaten Falcons 15 games, he slots in mid week in a new team and kicks five goals to beat the Falcons- tryl-ess second half so his penalty goals were pivotal. That was the game were Harry Grant made 60 tackles.

Then finals, 24-24 just calmly pots a field goal against Tweed. He's very calm.

Tonight he was on the left and went across to the right behind the play but dragged two players with him- physically dragged them across then called it and they had the Arthars try.

I told ya’s. TPJ bullied Fifita and we won.

I’m so glad his attitude has apparently been better because he’s been my favourite player for years. The beast was running sideward with the ball just to find Fifita and run into him.

Haas is an machine who does huge amounts of work but TPJ comes up with so many big plays that you almost take them for granted. He was immense.

Imagine if Staggs was being fed those great balls that was giving Arthur’s half breaks all night.

TPJ and Staggs could form a very lethal combination. Arthars got fed some real quality ball.

He’s a flake, he just drifts in and out of games all the time. Kevvie needs to fit him for a shock collar to wake him up throughout games.

That is a halfback! Absolutely loved what I saw tonight.

Yes. I'd agree with that. You'd be an excellent Dally M judge.

You know what else is funny? TPJ, Gamble and Flegler all had one thing in common...5 missed tackles each. That's 15 between them out of a total of 37 odd.

Gamble and TPJ were definitely good but no more deserving than Isaako.

I think Gamble rubbed off on the rest of the boys, he lit the fire.

F#*€ yeh!

The first 15 minutes was absolute rock bottom but then something happened. Maybe there’s a pulse in this club and Kevvie continues to give compressions to save the club.

TPJ is the man. Best forward in the comp when he’s on and how good was it seeing Corey Oates running the length of field. I nearly woke the kids I was that pumped.

That bit about Cozza running the length of the field. Yes!!!

I think he could be a really good winger and get some more games there for NZ if he played there full-time, and a solid enough centre if needed. But he isn't a fullback. He can keep having these glimpses of brilliance, but he just can't handle the job defensively, and also struggles a lot playing down the right edge, the left to right passing isn't there for him. His support play was much, much better tonight

At least they were in position to miss the tackles. Your boy is so far away from where he should be, they score untouched.

He floated in and out of games on the wing as well.
 
We had our moments in defence, but our first contact is still piss poor, hit and stick ffs.
