Wellll how appropriate is it, that after a supreme effort by Hunt and our outside backs, that it would be the incompetence of our starting halves and Thaidays butter fingers that would cost us the game.

Not sure how to take that one away. It's not like all the other sides will suffer down their right edge like the Storm did tonight.

On the bright side, you actually had something that resembles attack tonight.

Matt Duffie is a complete spastic,the type of player that Eels management would think is great and offer him 800k a season

Based on early seqson form, this is Souths comp to lose...

Storm lucky...but then I guess the great sides make their own luck...

It was the holding on at the scrum try that was the difference. Every team should do that now - refs said it was OK. "just part of the scrum" i think i heard the ref say. Still, no other team bar the Storm even have a go off a scrum - so good on them for being attacking.

Kinda offset by the first Hoffman try, that really should have been called held.

Your first try should have been disallowed as well so that's a BS comment first off. It's not as if you don't see that in other scrums, you see it all the time when the scrum can't pack cause props are being idiots grabbing each other.

Both should have been no tries though.

At what point does Griffin realise Ben Hunt is a much better player than Mccullough?

Shit I think I'm a better player than Andrew Mccullough

Incorrect, would still win by 2.

Smith missed that kick at goal.

You say it was the difference but some Broncos fans in this thread are failing to acknowledge that Hoffman's first try was very dubious.

Thaiday, along with Hannant and a few others from our pack, dragged us back into it. If you don't understand that then those who call you a genius on this board are 100% correct.

Sam Thaiday and Ben Hannant were your best by a mile though. Wallace was by far the worst. Did he run the ball?

I havent seen that play ever. Holding the prop, then inside pass to fullback through that gap. Its a first for me.

Maybe the props should just man up and not get held. Start swinging or something.
