Ah fair enough. Good play by us then lolDon't think repacking is an option when it expires... repacking is only an option for offside, broke early, etc.

While he has been playing competently this year at least we only wasted 4 years developing him for him to reach a first grade standard as he approaches the age of retirement. Only about a decade after most other players. Oh yeah the jokes on us.

If you are mates with kevvie you are probably mates with CONEHEAD too.
Im a massive fan of Reynolds and appreciate him 100% but I think if he was our 7 we wouldn't have won. Hunt done a bloody good job and helped us win that game.
There is something special though with a Ben Hunt "follow me" masterclass where he's folding back-rowers one-on-one and tearing the opposition's tired middles to shreds.
There is a thread I started called Conspiracy 101 where I laid out a lot of my thoughts on this back in 2020. The introduction of not only another Brisbane team, but also 6-agains, etc. Plus our complete ass-raping in confidence throughout corona (we were the guinea pigs), really just forced me to write something more complete. @Morkel, I think @Midean, @BroncsFan and I have been consistently banging the drum about the complete sham the game has become.Someone said in the live game thread about this being manufactured 'entertainment' and they are correct, you could just so obviously tell that the league wanted the "Thecliffe have booted the Broncos out of the 8" storyline. It was reffed for exactly that.
Back to your point, It was so hilarious to see Penrith and Melbourne get into a bitchslapping fest over which team was dudded by the refs more. The refs were so confused with what to do that they ****ed it up for both teams until they crept into golden point, for the EnTeRtaiNmEnT.
Wish the club would start calling out all of what you've said.

finally!True, different approaches work for different groups as well. They seemed to respond to Hunt.
He has been unreal most games this year what are you on aboutStaggs is a beast, and I really wish he fired up every game.
Billy played solid and done his job. That kick he put in for Karapani was amazing. His utility has helped us all year and was a great choice for 5/8.G'day kman, big fan.
What are your thoughts on Billy's performance?
Shibasaki let in one try by not moving up quickly to shut the play down and got done for speed. Otherwise he played well and set up a great try for Walsh.Shibasaki was bloody horrible and has been for a month now. Keen to see him get dropped
