I will be very disappointed if we cannot knock up a decent score / effort against the Gold Coast Titans, especially if the weather is fine and it is a dry track at the fortress SCG.

Easts by 24.

Hopefully Ryan Hall gets to play, as I think this will be his best chance to break his try scoring duck in this country!

If Hall couldn’t score against the Broncos, it’s never gonna happen, bud.

Hahahaha, you are probably right mate, but one can always live in hope I suppose.

Bad luck to BMoz after sustaining a small transverse process fracture in his lumber spine. That doesn't sound too flash. Let's hope for a speedy recovery and return to our team.

He is currently paying $1.62 for anytime try scorer. I won't be going anywhere near him. Hell, I wouldn't even back him at $10. That said, he will now score three.

Looks like you are right on this one @Headless Chook, he was very disappointing today. I have to admit that my patience is starting to wear very thin. He has been a real under achiever unfortunately.

The game to me was very dour and actually worse than last week. Nevertheless, we won ugly, but we still won, which I guess in the circumstances is a very positive sign.

I don't think Sitili at centre is the way to go. Let's just hope that Josh Morris (and Boydy) returns next week.

We now have a shorter five day turnaround before we meet the Dragons next Thursday. There is plenty for Robbo and co to work on before then. We are certainly in our usual mid season flat spot. We will have to improve for next week and a lot more again the week after.
