[QUOTE="McHunt, post: 3226877, member: 9853"] [COLOR=rgb(255, 255, 255)][I]Adorable double agent [B]Gorden Tallis [/B]has submitted a column in today's [B]Tower of Turd.[/B] If you don't know how these things work you might imagine he's actually put pen to paper because it carries his byline. So the entire article might seem like a quote. No. To protect the innocent, we still need to paraphrase it. [/I] [B][I]Gorden [/I][/B][I]says the Broncos have given us a taste of what to expect under [B]Kevin Walters[/B] but now they need to step up. He reckons we would've won had it not been for injuries to Matt Lodge (hamstring), Xavier Coates (neck) and John Asiata (shoulder), even after running out of petrol in the second half. He was particularly impressed by the [/I]"effort and attitude in defence" [I]and how they[/I] "rattled the Eels early with their energy off the line" [I]putting the Eels' playmakers under pressure. He says it was Milford's best control in years, taking[/I] "ownership in the first half" [I]and pulling off [/I]"great passes and kicks." [I]And that Milford appears to have returned to old and is praising the[/I] "impact Walters has on him as a player." [I]He describes [B]Brodie Croft [/B]as having done his job,[/I] "backing up in support, having the odd run and kicking." [I]But he singles out Jake Turpin, saying he was[/I] "fantastic at hooker with 47 tackles, including some bone-ringers on Parramatta’s big men." [ATTACH type="full" alt="Hremote.axd.jpg"]11803[/ATTACH][/COLOR] [I][COLOR=rgb(255, 255, 255)]You will believe a man can fly[/COLOR][/I] [COLOR=rgb(255, 255, 255)][I]He says that although Brisbane lost there was [/I]"very little in the game and it could have gone either way. The Broncos didn’t get many decisions going their way." [I]And reckons all the tries conceded could've been avoided with[/I] "some marginal defensive improvements and experience." [I]That although Blake Ferguson is a[/I] "sensational finisher," [I]more [/I]"experienced defenders would not have allowed him to get the ball down in the corner." [I]He couldn't fault even one Bronco for not wanting to win the game, and said they all tried their hardest for the full 80 minutes. He expects them to have their character tested again this Friday night against the Titans, and is talking up [/I]"a mouth-watering derby after the improvement the Titans showed last year." [I]The Titans, now with added David Fifita have[/I] "another dimension to their game." [I]He says the Titans no longer expect to play[/I] "second fiddle"[I] to the Broncos. Brisbane must[/I] "keep moving forward if they are to continue the long task of rebuilding Red Hill. They have set a platform and must not go backwards." McHunt[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
