Yes we made some poor 5th tackle options and bad defensive decisions but If we had a reliable goal kicker we would of won comfortably.. There is no denying the importance of turning 4 into 6..!

Given his involvement in the Club surely he would be aware if Hastings had a strained quad..
I also don't understand how he can play a whole 80 minutes with a quad strain!

I don't think that's the reason we lost, but yes... bit funny that we actively told Maloney to look elsewhere without having a backup plan.
We did have a backup plan. He hurt his quad. We could obviously do with some more depth though.

I saw Reynolds crying in front of me after the game and yelled out 'WHAT ARE YOU CRYING ABOUT?!?!? GO SAY SORRY TO COOPER YOU GRUB!!!' He looked up at me with a pretty broken looking face.

My reckoning is:
- If the team hadn't let in so many p!ss weak tries, we mighta won.
- If we were better in offence, we mighta scored more.
- If the tries we scored weren't all out wide, Mitchell would have had an easier time converting.
- Had hastings gone for a drop goal rather than trying to run the ball himself (and had we setup a box for him like the Storm and QLD ALWAYS do for Cronk) then the scores woulda been even.
There's so many variables that go into it, and at the end of the day, we lost because of multiple faliures thoughout the game. I'm sure Robbo will work on them over the next few weeks (wonder if Joey can work on Latrell's kicking although he's not a half? IMO he's just getting psyched out a little. Other than that, he's frigging awesome given that was his 2nd NRL game ever!
