    Another dumb play from Keary.

    • Glad we got the two at least. Time for a bye and hopefully we come back refreshed. Hopefully Butchers injury isn’t as bad as it looked, and hopefully Manu doesn’t get suspended
      EASTS TO WIN!

      • The Manu sin bin was absolutely ludicrous. This game is getting closer and closer to oztag every week.

        • Somewhat dreadful first half. Relatively pretty happy with the second half. Not sure what to make of the thing as a whole.

          Ultimately, a gutsy win. Walker, Crichton enormous among others. Also thought Suaalii was good.

          Young cost us some more points in that first half. I actually felt safer once he came off, to be honest.

          The Bye probably comes at a good time. We look maybe a bit frustrated, probably because they know how good they can be (and man, they’re doing a lot right).

          I had us well and truly pencilled in as premiership contenders a few weeks ago, even after the Storm loss. We badly need to stop conceding so many points though. We can’t do that against the Panthers, because they won’t let us score 40. 88 points against in 3 weeks… less than ideal.

                • Great game by Sammy. Gotta let this one sink in. Need a few stiff drinks.

                        Absolutely on Young. Was saying he needs a spell in Reggie’s. I get his upside in the opposition 20m, but fm he is such a liabilty. Can’t defend, and the errors are ridiculous. Y tf did he let that ball bounce. Surely we’re better off with Pauga on the wing, or Jenko at centre and Su on the wing

                            Not a doctor but Butcher looked like a broken rib. Easy injury but apparently painful as

                                Yeah I’ve been feeling this way for a while. He is easily directly responsible for more points than anyone else in the team this year, and also partially responsible for a heap more. He also doesn’t seem to accelerate into contact, and often gets dominated in his hit ups unless the previous PTB was lightning quick.

                                I doubt they’ll drop him for Pauga, although I’d be tempted. I wonder if there’s anyone we can play for a week or two to give him a freshener in Reggie’s. Hughes and Cleary will tear him apart in the finals atm.
