Glad Panthers won. Not sure that Tigers would fare well if they had a point to prove. Hell, I'm not sure they'll fare well anyway, especially with Twally out. Panthers can really turn it on when they need points.
3. Maybe Luai's best game for the Tigers. His defence was outstanding, plus a try assist.
2. Bula is super important to this team. While he was out, every bomb gave the opposition a strong chance to score. Needs to rein in his brain farts, though.
1. Could be Api, Skelton or Twal.
Seems to me that Galvin looks good while the team around him is patchy. Before Galvin moved to the Dogs, Sexton didn't look that great but the team around him looked great.
Much is made about the Galvin-Preston connection but Preston was already going gangbusters running off Sexton. Fact is...
Terrell needs to improve his attacking chops. His offloads are slowly improving, but he needs to be more of a running and offload threat to go to the next level.
I'd like to see him do shorter minutes too. Just because he is brave enough to play long minutes doesn't mean his standard doesn't...
I reckon the turning point was Qld kicking a penalty goal when they could have kept their foot on NSW's throat. It's super common for a team kick a penalty goal and then the opposition scores the next try, and it happened again.
