I actually feel sorry for him. That is one bog average squad with a 3/4 like cotric that is completely wasted.
Cotric didn't help himself mind you but he is still a weapon. Surely if you got a bloke like him up against a rookie like niu, you work them into a one-on-one, but their back...

I respect Wolfie's opinion on farnsworth, but I want to see what Isaako can do at the back with a bit of confidence.
I don't want him trying cut out passes and sweep plays. Just do what he did tonight and help in the back line and feed off the second rowers.
Farnsworth is currently doing...
For mine he was consistently our best back this year and another outstanding game tonight.
For a lot of the team this was a game of two halves but he was fantastic for all 80.
The mental is a huge issue with this team, and any future recruitment, regardless of how good they are, must focus on strong willed and above all else resilliant characters.
We have too many with confidence issues as it is and definitely shouldn't be adding to them.
My understanding was it was going to be a qrl run franchise initially but was stalled when the brl clubs couldn't come to an agreement.
The NSWRL then offered it the private consortium and the rest is history. The brl may have thought they would have ended up with more input perhaps (their...
He's got the Brent Tate take look happening after inspiration from the old boys. So long as the titans don't do the same and wear one of mal's arm braces.i swear he stuck an iron bar underneath when he played us :p
That and stealing the ball. It's one of the reasons I rate him so highly, even after lockyer, Thureson and Cam Smith's careers.
No other player has a specific rule change targeted at them directly and still walked away from the game with the reputation of an all time great.
He never let a...
I remembering them change the rules interpretation twice just for Alf. Those early days made you wonder how much they would have loved to see the place fold.
You have got to remember the broncos establishment was an after-thought when the qrl stuffed up their own team (brl clubs hated the idea).
You heard from me first: we use Asiata in a starting 17 we lose the points every time (mainly because of having four extra players on the field. Other than that I agree)
I think the Turpin no try is a 50/50 you live with. What was really dissappointing was the Ferguson try. It's a clear knock-on that wasnt even questioned. But in the end, that's football.
What will bee important is how we approach round 2. They were obviously pumped for round 1, but if they...
Look. We were far from perfect, but a bit of luck or another interchange then we win.
There were a couple of crucial lapses of concentration that really cost us.
I tell you now just from that game and the reaction post match we will win more than we lose.
That wasnt a side that was beaten...
I think losing by a significant margin will be a set back. If in losing, they show improvement that will be a tick in Kevie's column for retention.
If they win, it will do wonders for morale, but what is really important is consistent improvement of a series of matches.
It's worth noting they're all spine players but not every spine player has that capacity. I get the impression a lot (like Milford) play pure off instinct and probably couldnt tell you why they did what they did when. It probably felt "good"and so they went with it.
In the end you need to...
I hope someone is working with Corey. I know he is middle aged in terms of his career but as a second rower, he is still a rookie.
If he worked on getting his defence right he could still end up playing there this year. His running is as good as it ever was, but you cant carry a poor defender...
Yeah that's a fair call but I'm hoping a few things go to change that outcomes.
Milford is being given responsabilty to drive the attack as he sees fit and is apparently fitter than he has been in years.
I'm not expecting him to be anything more than a turnstile in defence he has always been...
