    Also, note that Pearce gives up chasing Manu after 10 metres. I have no doubt that he would of reeled him in, given he is one of our fastest players over 100, while Manu is quite slow for a winger. FFS Cordner and FPN put in the effort.

    It's actually funny how the winners on the night compare to the losers.

    Jennings scoops up a loose ball and races away- while Johnson reels him in through sheer effort. Manu does the same thing and Jnr lets him run. That's the difference between a winning at all cost mentality and a losing one.
    100% right.

    That fark up at the end is on Pearce.

      Agree with that.

      The Bros out enthused us all night.

        Hi BigMike,

        This is a very good observation and I do agree with you. Both of our halves let down the team and both of the second half tries were their fault. You can not blame Shaun Kenny-Dowall for the grubber kick as he should not have received the ball anyway when the blind side was well covered by the Auckland defence. Perhaps Mitchell Pearce did not trust James Maloney's last tackle option or perhaps he wanted to put something on himself as I do recall James Maloney taking most of the last tackles plays. Who knows what went through his mind but it was awful.

          Trust in Robbo

          Yes SKD is currently a shit player, but Robbo knows what's best. If there was a better player knocking on the door, he would get the gig. I actually thought SKidmark defended well for most of last night. He was rarely caught out of position all night.

          He just looks like a retard when he has the ball in his hands. Simple solution, throw cutout passes to RTS.

            Nice idea......BUT...I have a vision of SKD thinking the pass is for him and lunging for it.....only to knock on.
