LIVE GAME Round 5 v Broncos

[incontrol]

Was the first try the broncos got an actual try or a gimme for favouritism ?

goal kicking and no field General. Very proud of the performance tbh. Some tries awarded which were a joke also.

Can only go as well as the rest of the team.

I actually think the ref has been ok. I think some of the penalties around high tackles have been soft, but that is in line with what his higher ups have wanted and we were told before the weekend (not in so many words) that this would be the case.
Touchies however have been poor and the forward passes and a blatant knock on are more on them than the ref in my opinion.
Finally, I don't like Klien but I don't think we've anything to complain about from the bunker given they can't over rule forward passes.

Fair enough, but blatant forward passes need to be pulled up by first grade referee imo

Look at you, you philosopher.

Only comes from an admin role here.

I actually don't think we've played that poorly. We got a bit overwhelmed at stages and have several periods of like 10 minutes where we didn't touch the ball once.

We scored 5 (really 6 if you include Hunt's) tries and only conceded 7. Goalkicking makes the score look a a lot worse than it was, and we've done this missing our starting 7 and then back-up 7 for half the game, along with a few other injuries to our starting 17.

Old Tigers lose this game like 56-10.

There were just moments. Eg Twal was having a cracker until he dropped it cold coming on from a break.

First try was a knock on IMO

I think it probably was as well. But I also think it looked a try live and insufficient evidence to over turn. If we scored it and it were overturned I wouldn't be pleased.

I've had a few beers but did the game really change after Latu went off?

Brisbane had already grabbed the ascendancy by then imo.

 

[incontrol]

seemed like there was 24 points given to the broncos! not saying the tigers would have won, but made them have to take risks which lead to more mistakes.

 

[Gazman]

Boys did well , but we knew this was coming , I hope they can pick themselves up for next week

Willison changed the game man is a beast. Goal kicking also crucial. Refs awarded two tries one dropped by broncos and the other 3m forward.

 

[king_sirro]

Terrible scoreline in the end, we didn't really deserve that. Goal kicking and the 5 minutes before and after half-time killed us. Blatant forward pass for Broncos try and its terrible to disallow Hunts try. Yet another example of how embarrassing the NRL is with there rules.

We lost our way badly a few times, but outside of that we probably showed more promise in this game than we have in a long time

 

[Greek tiger]

The Broncos are just the much better team in the end and have too much quality for us, the score line went how we all expected first half and gave us some hope but Broncos too good in the end anyways we move on and bring on the Knights

It's a loss but so happy to have such a competitive side for once .broncos got a lot of luck early in 2nd half . Don't give up people .we all should like where we a r goin

I thought when we let brissy score in the 37th minute that was the turning point

We really should have went into the 2nd half leading

We have Luai back; hopefully also Skelton and also hoping Latu is all good.

I don’t think you can give anyone a 3 this game, nobody stood out amazing. Only one I could argue is jahream

 

[TYGA]

My take from today. Benji will make it as a coach.

 

[Demps]

We have Luai back; hopefully also Skelton and also hoping Latu is all good.

I'd like to see Luke Lualilii stay
If that means moving Turuva to centre, so be it.

Really?
Its called a driver

Yep. Real problem is that Pole didn't know. Just instinct I suppose, but our game awareness let's us down repeatedly.

 

[Tim Sheens]

OH please he was left posted big time there and had to change direction quickly due to a good play by the Broncos and bad read by his team mates.

It was a well executed set play, so I don't really blame anyone for that try.
