Greatest Defensive Display of all time? *spoilers*

Brisbane just won a game of football with the whole world stacked against them. 60% possession at fulltime, lost the penalty count by 3 and 11 line drop outs. That's the stats that Melbourne had, and they lost by 2.

Just unreal.

Brilliant defensive effort no doubt.

Let's look at this without the bias. You were playing Melbourne who were bereft of attacking ideas (apart from gaining repeat sets) without Slater & Cronk.

The whole world stacked against them ?

Suddenly Cronk and Slater are just average first graders eh?

They're injured. Even if they had played, they wouldn't have been 100%. What could Cronk and Slater have done in our defensive 20 that would've been the difference? Munster served Slaters purpose fine and Hampton...Well yeah, he is no Cronk.

Roosters 4-Manly 0 semi final was a better defensive effort by both sides.

At least they were both defending quality attack.

Gus says this kind of stuff every week.

The only time it matters is during finals.

It was a great performance.

Too bad people are going to be petty and tarnish it because of the OP.

That is the game that first came to my mind. Best defence I've ever seen. The QLD win against NSW in game one of 2005 is right up there too (QLD 2-0). NSW pounded them, just couldn't crack the line.
