Round 3 - Storm vs Broncos

[Kimlo]

Based on his first half performance, is Cooper Cronk worth a million?

Perspectives, folks.

Based on his career to date, he's worth triple Milford.

 

[I bleed Maroon]

Milford has been a passenger so far this year. I'm starting to wonder if he even still wants to play footy

 

[Mitch06]

Why aren't we at our best though?
I get it, players make errors, but some of the errors I've seen tonight seem very very strange.

Melbourne have been very good and have shut us down. Other than that it's just been piss weak errors I think!.

 

[Tera]

At the game. We've had zero go forward that half partly due to the Storms line speed. Need to mix it up in the second, get some decent kicks for field position and put some pressure on.

 

[Broncoman]

Must admit, its what i'm starting to think. I'd be chasing Foran and Taylor tbh.

Taylor no way, Foran yes way

 

[_wwong]

Pretty dog act by slater to stand over Boyd like that. He's an origin team mate not Mitchell Pearce.

 

[Wolfie]

Based on his first half performance, is Cooper Cronk worth a million?

Perspectives, folks.

On first half obviously not, he has been ordinary, but overall i'd pay him 1 million instead of our halves mainly because his poor games are few and far between and he generally does the simple things well. Hunts kicking is disgraceful most of the time, it tests nobody.

 

[Brett]

We have made a lot of simple errors. It must be said though that the Storm are holding down and wrestling for a long time in the ruck, which is slowing our progress down field and frustrating us into silly errors, imo.

 

[Wolfie]

Taylor no way, Foran yes way

I'd take Taylor in a heartbeat. He will only get better, and Foran to me is the type of player that brings out the best in the half playing alongside him. Milf has the potential, but he can be potentially good every year, he has to step up if he wants big money.

Are you surprised? They can do whatever they want while they have a lawyer in the 9

 

[Jason Simmons]

We have played lazily at times too, Gillett and Milford most obviously with silly erros, but our defence has been excellent. Have to keep it up though or it could be a cricket score in the second half.

 

[jd87]

im amazed that not one single commentator has commented on that elbow to face followed by him standing over boyd mouthing off looking like he wants to kick him. all because boyd had tackled him. if it was any 1 else they would be saying what a grub. imagine if josh reynolds did that?

 

[Horseheadsup]

Come on Boyd try.

 

[jarro65]

Our kicking game is so shithouse.

Against a well drilled team of grapplers like the Storm, you really need a pinpoint kicking game to get you into good field position.

 

[2ndPhase]

Every effective kick tonight has been from Macs.

 

[Big Pete]

It was only a few weeks ago that Milford was the match winner against the defending premiers who belted the premiership favourites a week later. I think some of you are very quick to stick the boot in.

 

[broncoboy]

as much as i love Gillet when hes putting on good hits and saving tries it just annoys me that he has no attack in his game, or atleast has forgot how to attack

Dont you think he has to start stepping up to the plate a bit more though?
