POST GAME POST GAME [Round 9, 2023] Broncos vs Rabbitohs

Classy - what a turd.

There's no real context for it just going by this, so I wouldn't be surprised if its just friendly banter between two ex teammates.

The Webcke/Parker incident was "minor", Webcke was in the hands of 2 trainers 60m away from the play and Parker entered the field slightly early.

in response to that, they introduced interchange cards to stop a repeat from happening ... so i have no idea how this was able to have happened. Either the interchange official fucked up in which case the NRL should (but wont) admit it and take disciplinary action against them. Or Souths deliberately cheated, in which case the NRL MUST strip them of the 2 points from last nights game at a minimum.

It will be clear as day whose fault it was once the NRL have made their decision on the Souths penalty

Parker was told he can’t go on-went anyway and scored.

It was 100% banter. He said it while laughing, they're obviously good mates.

So Souths are under investigation for having an extra man on the field when we were down to 12 men.

Yeah, his name is Klein

 

[Foordy]

The reporting on the extra man incident has now changed.

This morning they were reporting that the extra man was on the field for 30 seconds ... that time has been revised to 15 seconds

It will keep changing until it is zero seconds and the angle of the camera was funny for that photo, then somehow the broncos will be fined for having a stadium that can get that angle of photo...

 

[I bleed Maroon]

Any news on Reyno's shoulder?

Any news on Reyno's shoulder?

He’s still carrying us

 

[BroncsFan]

Confirmed only a fine for Herbie... How is something that the judiciary deems only worth a fine considered ten in the bin??

The idiots in the NRL have barely punished trips for 8yr, but because brain dead Hess gets himself binned for stupidity, we happen to be on the end of another 5min crackdown that won't be seen again for another 8 years.

Not the end of the world. I think we get far more out of that game the way we played than if we had won it playing like that. As Reyno said “You win and you learn”. If they actually decide to take on board some criticism of their shortcomings and make changes it will be a big win within a loss that was probably going to happen regardless of how well we played with just to many crucial players out.

I don’t want to be to rough on Jock but that just isn’t acceptable. If he chucks up that sort of performance next time I just don’t think you can pick him going forward. I’m not even overly phased with the lack of doing anything with the ball in hand it was really shit defence. To compound that there was really poor defence from Capewell and Herbie which I think really demonstrates the importance of Mams defensive abilities on that edge. Who would have thought that we would have really high opinions of his defence 20 games in to his career.

There is a lot of strike power and a lot of ego’s in this team that need to be managed. Absolutely no patience and respect for possession can be put down to hero plays on stupid tackle counts. Just take the tackle and either score points later in the set, get a drop out or make them work out of their own end. Compounding to this poor discipline the amount of piggy backs we gave them out of there own end was woeful.
Need to be far more disciplined than that. Most inexcusable part of the game really just bonehead plays especially from outside backs.

Middle forwards. Bit disappointed to be honest, they had an opportunity as a unit to prove Payne wasn’t doing everything for them but they did not rise to the occasion. Jensen and Hetho did alright, Keenan and Taupau weren’t liabilities but did essentially **** all, Flegler was disgraceful considering he needed to step up and demonstrate that going elsewhere to be the top dog was the right move for him and Pat was really just let down by nobody really going with him. This limited Pats effectiveness and meant he was working his ass off for near no gain. Kev needs to fix his time management there for Pat as well, his minutes and stint lengths are wrong. Pay Payne the big bucks he is genuinely worth it at this point. I have admired what he has done this year with his attitude and footy, he has been really mature and stood up in a time personally where nobody would blame him for not quite being 100%.

Staggs and Herbie just weren’t quite up to it in decision making on both sides of the ball, both doing some good things but just some even worse things that put us on the back foot. Need to be better but I can’t really see a performance like that from either of them happening anytime soon. Shit games happen to everyone. Arthars really just didn’t suit the role he needed to play in getting metres out of our own end and meant he lacked the ability to be effective for most the game but in most other areas he was pretty good. Cobbo had that one really stupid and lazy attempt to catch a pass but other than that I was pretty impressed. Solid outing where you could rely on him most the time. Made a lot of runs out of the backfield that against any other team would have been heaps more effective but they just had 3 or 4 men every tackle driving you back. All be it his absence on the edge led to a try (not his fault) but I was really impressed how quickly he got to fullback when Reece was having cramps and was waiting on the wing. Was one of those things where it can take a little while to realise but he got there super quick and started directing the defensive line. Sadly they kicked it to Reece and the rest of the team was to pea hearted to get there in support and Latrell went over untouched.

Combining giving away possession and field position far to easily with not being able to get out of our own end to save ourselves we were our own worst enemies. Nobody really ran with any sort of starch to gain metres and it just turned into this endless cycle of line break, unforced error, soft penalty and conceding points on our left edge. Undoubtedly Haas, Mam and Oates make a big difference to that game and if we decide to go back to nailing basics with great discipline, completion, win the ruck and having top quality defence we win nearly every time and when we don’t we will at least give a good account for ourselves.

It seems like a lot but it really doesn’t take much, it takes a little bit more thought every play to not just do stupid shit. Add to this the 3 players out who would have absolutely helped in our biggest shortcomings of not being able to get out of our own end and that disgraceful goal line defence and it would have been a close game even with some of our players playing like shit. Just think what a better approach and our full strength side would have done. We could have done a lot better than that if shit went our way but it was one of those days. Better it happen in round 9 when you are 7-1 (now 7-2) than later on in the year be it finals or the last few rounds when there is minimal room for error and minimal time to change our ways.

We will be back better than ever. Need to change that mindset and need to make sure as many of our stars stay on the park as possible. Carn the Broncos, **** South’s and let’s have at it Aye! Year of the ambush!

they had no choice but to fine Herbie.

because it was the bunker that tipped Klown off to the trip ... and the bunker are only permitted to get involved if it is a chargeable offence

Classy - what a turd.

Reynolds was being a bitch with that headbutt accusation though, there was nothing in it.

 

[Broncapz]

Whats worse is we could have had JD as our coach and avoided a wooden spoon if we had just stuck with WB's plan.

 

[Midean]

I'm not angry.
I'm disappointed.

Maybe he is only getting fined because we already received a spanking on the night.

Tripping is an abomination. Used to be an instant send off and multiple weeks out. Now it's classed as Dangerous Contact, dealt with first by the on field officials in accordance with their first impression (at least a sin bin), handed to the Match Review Committee for a formal grading, and then passed through to the Judiciary for a ruling. Each level of the process involves fresh eyes, and further deliberation often with new evidence.

Herbie's trip was judged as a Grade 1. He had no priors. A fine was the expected outcome.

Here are the key elements of each grading:

What are the key elements and indicators of each offense?

There are currently eight different type of offences that can be charged under the NRL Judiciary Code. Each offence has particular elements and indicators which are detailed as part of the NRL Judiciary Code and what actually constitutes an offence.

Phil Gould was one of many who complained about the downgrading of tripping years ago:

Tripping must be stamped out of the NRL

Why is tripping no longer considered a dangerous offence?

I'm well aware of what it used to be, but the NRL haven't given a shit about tripping for a long ass time now.

Used to be several weeks on the sideline and was a very rare sight to see on the field.

They've been changed to fines now and barely end up as penalties, but now all of a sudden they're sin bin offences.

It's a crackdown they now have to commit to ... or will it be like so many crackdowns before and just fade off into nothingness 5mins after it started
