LIVE GAME Round 7 versus Brisbane

[mike]

The Broncos didn’t score a try in the 2nd half.

 

[stevied]

What am.i wrong about?
My opinion.is wrong? Lol

Never mind Ink.

 

[stevied]

It won’t happen anytime soon, but our best side will be Madden 7, Luai at 6, Douhie 13, Twal starting prop, Pole into rotation with Hunt, SFainu, Latu Fainu

That's the one! Douehi didn't play well at centre before. Went into his shell and looked unenthused.

Staggs should have been binned in the 4th minute. The broncos had 3 back to back set restarts.

It's starting to look as if it could come to fruition, especially if the orange jersey makes an appearance at LO.

And it will turn out to be another shit decision, just stirs up the dinosaur devision, that would prove they are just too dumb to learn.

Haven't we already worn our orange jersey at Leichhardt? It's only been at Campbelltown we've worn the white jerseys as our home because it's Magpies home apparently even though they only started playing there in 1987 after ditching their real heartland. Only like 20 years max I suppose until they all die out. Maybe then we can finally just be displayed as the Tigers on the matchups and television instead of the Wests Tigers, just like every other team is just displayed as their mascot name. So annoying seeing it displayed like that, just looks aesthetically unpleasing.

Think we will always be called Wests Tigers, PVL was adamant, leaders change though, time will provide the answers.

But why? They don't show "Canberra Raiders" or "Penrith Panthers" when showing half time stats for example. It doesn't have to be that way, it's only dinosaurs that are stopping it from happening and by dinosaurs I mean Western Suburbs dinosaurs who don't want to let go. When you ask people who they go for they don't say Wests Tigers or Wests, they say the Tigers.

 

[stevied]

Still annoyed.

We need Jock from the start.
His direction and control.

That loss hurts.
Imagine what a full strength Broncos could've done.

However;
1 point loss.
We didn't get smashed.
But the better teams won't be so easy on us.

Penrith won by a field goal in Golden Point.
We just didn't have a chief on the field to lead the show.

A good, balanced assessment.

Back on topic lets leave this orange white crap be eh?

True, but those clubs aren't joint venture teams, I get it, the chant at home games is only Tigers and it has always been a strong brand world wide.

Yep would be good
But we have a single home strip and a single away strip, it’s not rocket science.

So are the Dragons. We can still be the Wests Tigers while being called just the Tigers on fixtures etc.

Haven't watched replay yet.

Was at the game. Adam D was not the reason we lost against the Premiers.

Strong in defence and he stretched them in attack.

One thing I did notice is that Broncos did everything through Reynolds.

That could be jock into the other halves

AD can and should play other roles like centre. AD is an upgrade at centre over Herbert.
We have a 4 time premiership winner in Luai who can play 6
Jock must play 7, he plays that traditional u role so well digging into the line.

A 4 time premiership winner off the back of Cleary who's done nothing for us. Just a coincidence our attack was clunky as soon as he came back when it has been smooth and fluent without him. Doueihi at 6 and Madden at 7. Nothing wrong with Herbert, he can be our first choice right centre over To'a.

For as long as i can remember our home and away or main and alternate have not been.strictly based on where weve.played. ie LO or Cambo, telstra commbank etc
I never recall any hard.fast rule.and having watched.almost everyone.of.our games thats confirmed

I don't know what it means for a referee to cost a close game, because there will always be other factors. However, there were a couple of atrocious calls that led directly to points. Willison clearly grassed with Douehi standing over him and touching him then offloads. Dummy half takes 3 steps and is 2m wide of the ruck and is absolutely fair game. At that point we had been dominating field position. It was ilan incredibly impactful incorrect decision.

I thought the penalty against Api was an incorrect decision for the exact same reasons you mentioned.

At the time I also thought our penalty where we kicked our goal was lucky for us as I thought the short drop out did just pass over the 10m line before the Broncos caught it.
