POST GAME Round 23 - Broncos vs Dragons

My funny moment of the night. Reed and Copley are sitting on the turf after the game when the interviews etc are on.
Reed unwraps Copleys bandage around his head, looks at his wound and nearly spews. The look on his face as he pointed Copley towards the sheds while nearly heaving was classic.

I really liked the depth we had with our set moves. Like others I think the come to me defence just won't cut it against big good sides.

I don't understand how Reed was allowed back on, he was knocked the **** out, we may have to answer for this.

Milford and Dodds could be in trouble for shoulder charges. The shoulder charge thing is getting messy already, I'm not sure where we are headed with it.

Good to see some of you coming around to my thinking re: Copley :wavey:

I was vocally against the signing of Blair, but i actually agree with Gould on something ... Blair is probably the most improved player in the NRL. The Tigers will be looking at his form and think "where the **** was that when he was playing for us ..."

Bennett was right again ...

As Gould say last night, he just thrives under structure and discipline, and is probably the most improved player of 2015.

I don't think it's any of those things, he said in the MOM interview, his family have settled and love it here. That was his biggest light bulb moment.

Unlike a few of you I can't see Reed knocked out. Stunned yes but never knocked out, in fact he was squeezing his fist on the ground because of a shoulder problem. Came off fine right in front of me. The club won't have anything to answer for.

When you see someone go stiff as a board like he did it's lights out however briefly.

It was the classic "fall to the ground without protecting / bracing yourself" or whatever that wording is. I think the squeezing fist thing has been taught by every coach of every team.

I seriously wonder if he went into the game carrying an injury. He was well off the pace all night. Lost count of the times he was palmed off out there.
