Sam Burgess doesn't normally have 2 bad games in a row. He would be smarting after last week, and I'm expecting him to come out and lay a few of the Broncos down (legally)
make that 3 bad games in a row. Penalty in the ruck lead to try and did nothing in the second half when Souths should have put Broncos to bed. He wasnt the only one tho.

Broncos get up.
A few handy calls that they seem to get.
Sims should have been in the bin for a professional fowl on Reynolds bumped off ball.
Robert's taken into touch, called back as held and Bunnies penalised.

and the no try to walker. Ive seen those given, even last weekend from memory.. but he did f**k up. he should have just dived for the ground instead of stepping back.

We need to win and we don't have the worst draw. We should win 2. We could win 3. If we don't win 2, we don't deserve to be there. It's the business end of the season and it's time to see if we're actually serious.

Would have been good to see Souths win last night, but they didn't have a backline.

Broncos have Roosters away next week- that'll be tough. Their match against Manly will be crucial, as will the Tigers last match against Souths (who will be in better shape by then). Round 25 will be intriguing

A three-way spoon battle tonight, just right for nervous nellies to take their minds off the Warriors.

Titans v Manly. Storm v Eels.

yep I was definitely wrong on that one, the whole team had flashes of awfulness

Bunnies very mixed ATM but Gagai was the only first choice outside back available

Last couple of years both Cowboysvand Sharks have fallen over the line and then hit reset for the playoffs. I wouldn't rule out any team that's shown an ability to put together a sequence of wins, I guess that even includes us and the Dragons

Very open comp

Konnie's D is still suss. A bad miss there on Tom T led to an easy try.

Titans go up 6-0 early, but Manly storm back for a 16-6 lead. Twenty mins gone.

Trbojevic bros sound like they're in tremendous form.

If Manly win the spoon and we won the comp it'd be the stuff of fantasy

Us in the semis and then with the spoon would be f**king special too

f**k the silver tails LOL

42-34 to Titans, that was one heck of a game though. Spoon or not.

Perenara was upstairs. Beave might be ropible!

Perenara is an absolute muppet but can't complain, although the sinbinnig of Walker for a professional foul was a joke, was like watching a game of the old U20s rubbish, defence nowhere to be seen

Neither team deserved to win that, amazing though the turnaround after the ref got injured, we were up 16-6 and well up on the penalty count too, when that ref disappeared all of the sudden the Titans got 8 of the next 9 penalties with 2 sin bins tossed in

3 held ups, a double movement and a try disallowed for downtown, we left some points out there

Worst part of the result was needing those purple bastards to win next up

Man Penrith miss Peter Wallace

As we've seen quality at #9 is huge
