Not quite the same quality as the last 3 encounters but still great viewing. These teams are tremendous at the moment.

Couldn't believe Milf sprayed that droppy. If only there was a game where you could get a point for missing...

4 games with a total margin of 7 points between them. All outstanding football matches.

Sad to lose those tight ones but it was quality, even with a bit of dropped ball.

Last night, no. The closeness of the contest saved that game from being an absolute bludger (22 errors). The last time I witnessed a game with that many mistakes was Dragons V Panthers Rnd 4 (23). Bog average game last night (apart from the finish) TBH. We've been spoilt when you look at their last couple of games.

This and so much this. The wank fest over this game is odd. It wasn't a patch on the first game this season. The last 15-20mins saved it from being a very average game.

Bronx won that game IMO if milf doesn't have a well below par average game. He just didn't look on at all. Was still dangerous at times but didn't look like he was mentally into the game.

Broncos are a bit mentally soft it seems. Prone to choking against the cowboys.
The losing momentum in the second half thing has been consistent feature in their games this year and it's a massive liability for any team good enough to take advantage.

Last night they had no gas left and started getting injuries, because they were defending, they defend and defend and defend.
At some point, as the season gets on, these things will start happening more and more.
1 injury is bad luck, almost a whole bench injured is fatigue.

Wayne Bennett is a great coach but he's had some questionable coaching techniques this year.

What the hell has happened to James Roberts. His style of play is obviously not suited to the donkeys regimented straight line game. Now just another cog in the wheel. Old man Bennett has certainly stifled his avant guard brilliance.

If my schlong was bigger I'd be a porn star

If feldt catches the ball in the first half, if dick fingers doesn't bomb three tries we run away with it

Similarly if Brisbane were not down to no reserves on the bench with ten to go The result might be different

That's the way it goes
