Agree re Melbourne. Please note I said not illegal to wrestle well. Intentionally putting players in unsafe positions isn’t acceptable. As for the second effort it’s subjective re momentum. Got no problems pushing the envelope on that one.

1. Fair enough 2. It’s not cheating to wrestle well. I can not recall anything specifically in the rule book (although admit can’t say read it lately) and rest is open to ‘interpretation’ which consistently allows it. I don’t think it’s a try when u land on the ball with your chest but the...

Need to bring him to Broncs so the brothers can complete the ruin a broncos finals trifecta! Family traditions are important after all.

That was the problem with under 20s. Very few go onto NRL. It wasn’t a fail in the usual sense for me. A lot of international and SOO and bad luck with injury. The problem was they were overly hyped, overused and relied upon which prevented us seeking better options and have all peaked...

Refs won’t penalise us 20-1 no matter their agenda cause their primary motivation is ‘a close competition’. They need something close to an even count. Giving away soft ruck penalties is fine for the first month. The problem is we don’t do our wrestling with finesse to look ok. It just looks...

Easily fixed drop Macca from the spine.... give someone else a shot based on preseason. Pick 2 of Bird, KNik, Turpin and hopefully at least one show the goods at hooker or at least Macca gets the message that despite his hard work without using his fricken brain or developing core skills of a...

There is nothing wrong or specifically Bennettball about having a good structure and taking percentage plays more often then not. That’s just good coaching. There are however problems with a ‘lock’ taking half your forth tackles in decent position, wasting 3 tackles inside the 20 with inane...

I agree mixed year with a handful of huge highlights namely the young forwards and beating top teams (except Storm) but more problems coming to the surface and not really being dealt with any of issues from last 4 years. Finishing 2 points off in what seems like a high ‘regulated competition’...

For me deserves to start more at prop. Could take a horses for courses approach to starting props and form. Need to get rid of the starting vs bench status issue. For me the key is quality minutes and to a lesser degree number of minutes. Some games might want aggression of McGuire (if...

Called an exercise bike. Put game of thrones on loop and leave him there 8hrs a day 5 days a week. Agree would be nice to have him get a full preseason one of these years... but of a worry having another go. If only there was a position where Milf could make less tackles on bung shoulders...

Fair point. Difference is don’t think Souths have it in them mentally at this point against a very different Roosters with Cronk primed for finals football. Also not confident Souths strike weapons are firing. Bennettball of late is heavily reliant on individual brilliance usually outside the...

Yep same one that lost by 30 points to Hunt. Or can’t beat the Titans. Let’s not talk about the Storm... Bennett gets his players up for big games that’s very different skill set to actually having a clever game plan.

Seibold is looking Bennettesque. Not using bench players in an exhausting game. Taking the 2 when have them on the racks. Team struggling to put them away with handling errors and missed tackles... he’s only young though first season and finals so not too concerning. Next week against...

Just trying to be something he isn’t. A halfback... You don’t take a Porsche 911 to the worksite and except it do to the job of a Hilux not matter how much u overpaid for the Porsche. Dragons set him up to fail. You can’t partner Hunt with a Kurt Mann style player. Needed a backup halfback...

That’s true but is he going to bleed for Broncos jersey like a Hodges? For me that role is best with a Queenslander but will see.

It was a low probability play full stop. Agree contributed by Hunt not wanting to face Reynolds in a shoot out but in finals it is extra time now golden point at first. The fact that Reynolds can slot field goals made it imperative to get the ball down the other end with a time wasting kick...

Last night was pretty good crowd. Can’t believe it was really 48 thousand people there based on number of empty seats but easily 40. Mind u that needs to be what they are doing week in and out in the regular season let alone finals. Need to make the tough call now and move or cut at least 2...

With a mostly fit roster (without the soft tissue injuries at least) used well we play Storm in grand final with a half decent shot of winning (depending on which fairytale sounds better). For me injuries didn’t help and might have been a killer this week but didn’t give ourselves a shot with...

Classic Hunt. Does enough to get you there but sh*ts the bed on the final hurdle. Hope bloke is ok but f*** he is not fit to wear number 7. In his defence without his try they don’t get close but who the f*** runs it that last play? Did they just lose count?

Think we need to be upfront about WB position with signings. Need to deal honestly and foster that culture of trust. As much as I hate his bulls*** WB decisions of late just re sign till 2020 but just put a strong tactical deputy in to keep him on his toes. Make the contract include...
