2024 R5 Thu - Melbourne 34-32 Brisbane @ AAMI

Bloody proud of the boys despite the loss. When we get our missing players back, we're cruising back to the top 4.

 

[Burwood]

Except he kicked it hard, flat, straight to the winger 8m into the in goal.

Woeful.

The ball was in the air for 4 seconds- plenty of time to get there if they weren’t standing so deep in attack.

5 starts for 2 wins after declaring yourselves premiership favourites? Gai Waterhouse would be calling you the best horse she’s ever trained.

Cracking game between two top sides. I think the defence manual went out the window for both teams there but it made for some entertainment.

Felt like we probably should have been a bit more comfortable with the win but I’ll take it

Baker out, Te Kura in. He can be our very own NAS going off tonight's performance.

I'd feel better about the Storm than the Broncos. Close to every try the Broncos scored tonight was a bit of a freak one. Storm won by playing better footy....score flattered Brisbane a bit I thought.

Yeah, in the context of the season I am not too concerned, but still some poor defensive reads that need addressing

Baker isn't a front rowers arse hole. No motor that MFer. One good pass last week and 5 weeks of plod.

Think the result's about right - only a couple of points in it. Yes the Broncs dropped 2 certain tries, but so did Remis Smith - one he tripped over his own feet with Warbrick outside with a clean run to the line, and another where he fumbled a pass with the line open.
Both sides have plenty to work on in defence.

Not to mention when the game was there for Brisbane they absolutely choked and gave up two soft tries. One team has a winning mentality, another just have a few exciting players who every so often find themselves in space.

Connected to the thigh bone

It connects the femur to the tibia, in the centre region of the knee.

Having torn three of them I'm well aware tbh.

PCL is at the back of the knee. But the point is where he's clutching doesn't really say anything either way.

A torn ACL is of the the worst injuries. I'm glad I've never torn one.

 

[gerg]

Getting call after call wrong as usual. They’ll come out and apologise for all of his terrible decisions on Monday before announcing he’ll ref all 3 origin games, the grand final and have a solid gold statue built in his honour outside TAB headquarters.

Haha... even when they punish him for a poor game, their form of punishment is to put him in the bunker where he can f**k it up even more.... following Tuesday - for Christ's sake, give him back his whistle.

Yeah they're not what you'd call fun. Especially for randos on the street who haven't got access to NRL standard rehab lol.

Brisbane continuing to play Reynolds when he clearly isnt 100% fit

Brisbane gonna Brisbane....

That's not how I read the tweet...

He mentions the innocuous nature of the injury, and then mentions, how given the knee issues, that it could be an injury as a result of compensation.
