Jack Bird was very grateful for the Vunivalu drop ball.

He almost had to make a tackle or be slightly productive.

Vunivalu with some more poor handling. I don’t get it.
These blokes struggle to catch a ball at times but can hold an iPhone in one hand, go the vinegar stroke with the other & post to Instagram at the same time.

Melbourne should really be leading by 20 at least. Broncos have hardly looked like cracking them.

Welp, I'll get the only positive out of the way first. Our defence has been very brave. Melbourne have piled the pressure on with plenty of help from the refs and we've kept them to 10. Could've easily been 22 but lucks a fortune.

The rest has been an exhibition in everything wrong with this team and this game. Can't buy a penalty, meanwhile Melbourne are allowed to do what they please in the ruck as usual, slow, plodding shit from Boyd at the back, shit defence on the line and shit kicks from Nikorima, garbage dummy half work from McC but that is a surprise to nobody, nothing doing from Milford, allowing easy offloads and stupid penalties leading to conceded points.

So far...

Broncos hyped pack massively over rated
Broncos can't finish sets
Milford and Nikorima look frantic and rudderless
Bird and Boyd look slow and disinterested
Storm look slick and professional
Smith controlling the game
Storm look stronger up front, faster out wide
Storm still the most hated team

Clearly the wild offseason didn't actually change anything at either of these clubs.

Bird's been okay actually, he's made a few errors which is less than ideal but some of his carries have been strong, it's good to see
