Disagree. Ball ON the ground rolling only needs a fingernail to touch it without propelling the ball forward. Which is clearly shown in the replays. Try

For the first time in awhile, during a Broncos game, I was quite calm and thinking pretty clearly. I was watching our boys during that game and it's all very clear to me what our issue is. It comes down to one thing and one thing only - attitude.
Our attitude is so inconsistent it's getting ridiculous. The 1st round, we didn't even want to be there and the Dragons killed us, we were absolutely pathetic and deservedly got hammered for it by the media and everybody. So, round 2 comes along and we play to our potential and then some. We were hitting hard in defense, the forwards were on fire and totally dominating their opposition, the attack was crisp, fast and on, kicking game was good and overall, our attitude was switched on, energetic and we had a killer instinct.
Then, after that win, all the negative talk went away because we won etc. The boys won, everything was all good. And tonight, we dished that up. Unenthusiastic, no energy, clunky attack, frustration, uninspired performance.
Yes the 2 points is fantastic, I'm happy we got the 2 points but honestly, that was a very worrying performance. I don't know what Broncos team is going to show up anymore. When we are on, we're on and we can smack every team in this competition, we are deadly when we want to be but that's the thing - do we want to be? Do we really want to pay the price? At the moment, we look like we want to get the easy wins without fighting hard for it getting into the grind and dominating.
We were just lucky the Tigers attack was just as bad as ours.
I'm happy with the 2 points but that's it. I'm concerned.

I don’t agree with that
Jk. I would be ready to Russell packer someone if that had been awarded against us. I don’t think it’s a try ever and am glad it wasn’t awardwd

Personally I think no try as IMO he pushed it .
WTF was Niko doing with the no look pass to Gillette? unnecessary fLAIR or looking to see if the fullback moved off to go himself, whatever it was just draw and pass, footy 101. It shits me when tries get bungled like that.

At what point can we officially admit we have no #7. Being fast isn't enough.

Easy. Tagataese.
I imagine Pearson will come in. Although, Opacic has shown he can be quite handy on the wing.

That's spot on. At the same time, we are still standing too flat, no real depth. It's been endemic to this team for years.
Their defensive pattern was also a perfect opportunity for some shot kicks behind the rushing defensive line for runners like Milf and Roberts. Sadly, that sort of creativity is missing.

I can usually find fault with any try awarded against us.

Ennis played at the Broncos, but like Ikin I wouldn't really regard him as being a player fully attached to the club either.

For the ball to be deemed grounded, pressure must be applied by the player’s fingers, hand, wrist, forearm or torso so as to create a reasonable influence on the plane of the ball including the spin, rotation, momentum or bounce.

That’s Klein’s horribleness right there. Benji knocks on, he goes to put his whistle in his mouth and then thinks, “You know what? That didn’t go forwards at all.”
