At least there will be something to play for. Can't wait to see the usual thread started by someone stating "Let's think of the positives of this match".

I can think of a positive. Souths have reached their peak this year and they'll still fall short of the finals. For Parra the best is yet to come.

With so many heartbreakers a loss like this was going to come sooner or later.

We have played much worse and been beaten by much less.
Souths were on fire tonight, the confidence was high for them after last week and soon as GI scored that first try so easily they all grew a extra inch and that confidence lifted even more and the played a fast attacking game plan and attacked our weaknesses in defence and we didn't stand up.
they beat the dragons last week ffs we should have known they would be up for the contest by contrast we were flat as a punctured tyre right from the kickoff

Souths had alot of 2nd phase play.

I miss our 2nd phase play.

Brandy said, to play with structure you must be able to defend well.

Right, because we have the players to score from second phase :crazy: And don't mention 2009, because we actually had a bloody good back-line then.

Eric, Joel and Krisnan alone make a huge difference. Add to the fact that injury and a lack of quality players has forced the coach to chop and change. And believe it or not but Mortimer and Hayne were on fire.
