Try but as shown when your forwards are firing you can carry a few spuds.

[icon_lol1. I found it funny at around the 30 minute mark when the Broncos were getting hammered Sterlo was ready to call it the game of the year...
Sterlo doesn't even know some of our players names, he's terrible commentating Broncos games.

Very disappointing obviously but just one of those nights. We've had them every year since 1988, just have to make sure we bounce back.
Not much changes going in against Manly in 2 weeks time because we more than likely wouldn't have had Hodges and Lockyer playing anyway. Looking forward to getting Hoffman and Te'o back.
What I was most disappointed in tonight was our defence up the middle. The Panthers just made easy easy metres all night, I reckon they would've gained 50+ metres in 95% of their sets that they started from in their own half. We haven't seen that all season so I really really hope it is addressed and that we don't see it again.
And while I hate singling out scapegoats, that really has to be McCullough's last chance. He started alright because he just did his job and provided good service, but after he came back on after his first break he got back to his old ways. I threw the remote when he threw that stupid dummy on the last tackle in the set after Petero and Parker got sinbinned. He has potential, but at this stage he is NOT first grade standard.
Time to call up Tom Butterfield from Redcliffe.

I think Macca needs more time, He defends well remember and that is really his only job.

Know exactly what you mean. Hopefully it was an anomaly, I'm prepared to give them the benefit of the doubt at this stage.
The back up dummy half thing is really hurting us though. Unless he's playing in the halves, Norman shouldn't be in the team. If Griffin wants a hooker on the bench, Baptiste should be the guy or as Jeba said, wouldn't be averse to Butterfield getting a shot either. No more shuffling and playing guys out of position, just a straight swap.
