The bigger question is: Why does that play always work? We've been doing it for ages and it seems to come off more often than not.

It's been funny just how little Hunt has touched the ball since Anasta went off. I think he's been tackled twice. Can't believe he didn't get sent off.

How many weeks do you blokes think he'll get?

Andrew Ryan was let off after hitting Ryles in the head with his forearm as it was deemed that Ryan was aiming at Ryles' chest but Ryles fell into Ryan's forearm. If that set any precedent then hopefully Hunt's penalty won't be too harsh.

It's a bit like our second man play, just the sign of a good play when you can trot it out week after week and opposition defence's can't shut it down.

As I type Carroll barges over and we should be all square at 14 all shortly.

Jeez, disallow a well worked try, and then allow a brush across the top of a bouncing ball.

How was that a try? Mini kicked it dead didn't he? or did I miss something?

pretty close, I think Boyd grounded it a mili second before Minichello kicked it. Fair try.

although the obstruction looked more of a try than Boyd's one.

Dont agree, should have been a penalty and on report thats all

Fair enough....I think it was a shoulder charge gone wrong but ended up being an elbow/forearm to the head. In my view if thats not a sendoff then I dont know what is. I know it was an accident but that doesn't excuse it.

btw...Gary Neville is gay!!!

And what you're seeing now is why Brisbane fans feared how we'd handle the new 10 interchanges. We're dead on our feet, it's going to take something special to hang on here.
