Sandow is our 7, Kelly is what he is, ordinary

Players have games like that, and Chris had some bad errors tonight, mainly goalkicking which looked like it affected his confidence. Please don't let Kelly anywhere neat the NRL team, would rather we played ZDC

Kelly is our next choice halfback, and rightly so. He'll come in if Sandow or Norman play Origin. If they both play Origin we're f**ked but.

Miles worse. Hayne's pass should never have been thrown. Sandow passes two seconds quicker and we are in the corner.

From where I was sitting at the game, it was always going to be intercepted, I was screaming not to pass it........both plays were f**king terrible!

I like Sandow,he is an entertaining player but when you're getting payed 500k you have to slot home at least ONE of those wide ones.

Agree with strangenuts re the pass,he had to take a chance there,i won't blame him for that.

Richards was about 5m off side...

Their defensive line was offside all game, so it wouldnt suprise me if he was.
Refs should be treated like players, when u have a shyt tame you get dropped until you can prove you are up to it.

For what it is worth, Sandow is an 80.5% career goal kicker. He is struggling so far this year, but it would be amazing if he suddenly became a 65% quality kicker for the rest of his career.

I'd expect him to be kicking well again quite soon.

I know every team would have their own hard luck stories, but we would be sitting 2 points clear in first place if we kicked at FG level vs Manly or W/Tigers. Lost both matches with a 1 from 4 day with the boot.

Yeah goal kicking is an issue. Chris should have nailed that last conversion. Not sure what the problem is as he kicked very well last year.

I also wasn't happy when he took the wrong option to pass to a Tiger when he had support left and right to bomb a certain try.

I think he's getting caught up in the moment too much (goal-kicking that is) and overthinking. He definitely steered that last shot rather than just kick it. An afternoon of just kicking 50 or so goals and someone to come out during the game and to get his mind off situation would fix him right up

Apart from bombing a certain try, throwing the intercept pass that lead to a try, and missing all the conversions, he had a pretty good game. He kicked a 40/20.

Don't forget missing the winning conversation and knocking on two sitters when he had been put into space (making up part of his 5 errors).... Oh and the obligatory defence issues. Good 40/20 though.
