Benji said after the game that it looked like they weren’t trying. There is possibly some truth in that? The only game they’ve been up for since the round 8 win against Raiders is the dogs. They must have been strongly motivated for that game? Would love to know what demotivated the team? Has...

No team has made the finals after a 68-0 whitewash.

Yes good point, we missed those key players who know how to catch the ball.

Correct Oldman, a chain is only as strong as its weakest link.🔗

Benji still has so much to learn about coaching. Penrith have been using the same method of shortening our line in defence, with the middle’s carefully running into gaps from the PTB or the back rowers breaking from the scrum running through the line. It only took a split second to put our...

Penrith made us pay for those 6 1st half errors.

I think he has shown us his peak performance. Tuck, this is his 3rd season with us, he's 21 and a 30 gamer. His defence is solid, but I'd like to see him more involved in offence if he wants a halves position. I hope he goes well. His biggest asset is his love for the club and Coach.

I'm happy to see Madden in too Brownie. I just cast an eye over the stats for Line break involvements. I knew he was going well, but he is killing it in that area that really counts, pulls the team together etc. There's only Dylan Brown ahead of him. If we're lucky enough to have Jock at 7 for...

b he missed 2 tackles. His halves partner Luai missed 5. There were 12 teammates who missed 2 or more tackles.

Tim Sheens?

I think he has shown us his peak performance.

Lestrange, if I may be allowed to have an opinion, I reckon there are 2 equally important facets of halfback play. 1. Execute Coach’s game plan, keeping teammates on point. 2. Count the numbers, constantly being aware of opponents weaknesses in defence and our corresponding strengths in attack...

Try sticking with the facts if you really believe in your argument. I'm not saying Adam is not good for the team, he's a clutch player. But at times he is a bit of a hog when he should have more faith in those outside and the stats back up this point. It's still a team game.

All I know is that Madden was involved in our first 3 tries. He is always in the action and he is getting better with every game. Both Jock and Adam have played 8 games each in the halves to date. I know stats don’t tell the whole story but they are interesting just the same.

Madden does more defensive work than Doueihi does.

This is an interesting game. We win this game if we can number up in the backs.

A very strong Blues squad, well thought out by coach Daley. I like the inclusion of Olakau'atu, Radley and AFB. The inclusion of Moses at the expense of Luai also strengthens the squad. Looking forward to this game.

Good points Tom. I just listened to the post match recap from Benji and Jarome. They must have said “it’s back to the drawing board” 10 or more times. No doubt they would go back to the drawing board after every game, win lose or draw. Benji knows what has gone wrong in the last 3 games and...
