What happens to the other 5 minutes? Just call it a day because someone did the wrong maths?

33C. I think they'll appreciate the 5 min reduction.

 

[Sproj]

I feel like I might hire some company named BMD to do...whatever it is they do because...brainwashing.

On a negative note, I think Ben te kura needs a year and a half at least to even be looked at as a possible injury-riddled depth option tbh. Can tell he has talent and his height is great but just very, very raw. Nowhere near willison currently.

 

[Big Pete]

Solid start, the spine is doing a good job of getting the team around the paddock and Mariner is looking very sharp.

The defence still remains a concern. They're struggling to maintain any line-speed and they're struggling to get players to the ground. No real venom in their first contact either, and it seems like they're relying on cheap shots to hurt the opposition.

 

[Big Del]

SMOOTHY has started this great absolutely perfect I'm very impressed thus far.

Nah not perfect .
Good , but he threw a pass at the half back`s feet just before the break .

 

[Jason Simmons]

All I know is I want to hire BMD for something…

 

[Lockysillegitimatechild]

Been impressed with Smoothy, Mariner, Sailor and Frei so far. Rodgers and Leota too, and that 13 might have something about him. Love the brand of footy these guys are playing, geez I hope our NRL squad play similarly.

And I have got to say, this spine looks better than ours did half the year last year. At least they know what to do in an attacking situation...very refreshing.

I've thought frei has been a little bit quiet tbh...

 

[Sproj]

Mariner surely has to be looked at very closely but who does he replace in the first team? He is just looking so, so good.

 

[Cult]

The 13 has looked lively as well

Full of energy but looks almost ineffective

There's just no room for him sadly. Best we can do is first in line for a spot for injury coverage

Yep haven't been noticing a whole lot of wrapping the legs to get them to the ground... two up top and allowing the ball carrier to walk forwards for extra meters... maybe they've been tackling Haas too often in training

 

[Spoon]

I do like the one handed pick up and go method from Smoothy

 

[ZTop]

Commentators seem to have some affiliation with wynnum

 

[Sproj]

Mariner is doing great stuff both sides of the ball. Kotoni is going to want to be watching his back I reckon.

 

[BroncsFan]

Should be a penalty against Wynnum... player gets up resenting a normal tackle and no reaction from the broncos player despite copping multiple face palms

 

[Foordy]

not a bad position for us to be in.

He'll keep the pressure on the first string guys. at least until he gets a new manager

 

[McHunt]

Not impressed with Ahearn.

 

[Cult]

Sailor is fucking quick
