  • That second half

    Is the level we are capable of. We play to that level we can beat any team and that includes the storm.

    How good was that defensive set when we just bashed them. That's why I love this game.

      We just have to stop giving away silly penalties. We know the game managers won't do us any favours.

          If we are that fresh going into 2nd halves the rest of the season then we are indeed a good shout, the coaching and fitness staff may have tapered this to perfection, was shocked how fresh we looked.

              Interestingly I felt we were gaining similar ascendancy in the 1st half but the standard or bar for relieving ruck pens is much lower in 1st halves and 2 or 3 pens completely turned the tide.

              But in the 2nd half the refs rewarded our dominance by putting their whistles away. Tauks was deservedly penalised but thats it.

              I've no doubt that in those 2 or 3 crushing defensive sets at about the 55min mark that if they were at the 10-15 min mark the ref would have blown the whistle to "set the tone" or some BS as per Archer's instructions.

                Commentators were very vocal on how the Calfgirls were looking very unfit.

                  We only see league in glimpses these days.
                  But I'm right with you on that 13

                    Can't plan for the game managers , Tommy/Morley.
                    Ruck penalties create the grey rules they want.

                      Yeah, that second half was the best we've played all season.
                      And against quality opposition that had come to play.
                      Tauks was huge.

                        Yup. They can call anything that tickles their fancy. Or bank account.

                          That was the reason the Roosters won.

                            +1

                            I was expecting some kind of bullshit marker/offside penalty during one of those massive defensive sets.
