I think it’s a sin-bin very day if the week. Why did Young lift him there? Absolutely no need.

Nothing happened on this one but all it takes is a few degrees more once you go in that position for it to get very ugly. Should be a bin every time when the lift is intentional.

There must be certain things being said to Ponga behind the scenes. I don’t know if it’s Connor Watson or Wayne Bennett, but I just see a player who has checked out of the Knights. His body language is all wrong.
If this is what he’s going to give us, release him now. We need more than this from 10% of our salary cap.

The decoy runs seem to be lacking tonight, probably why we're getting smashed and dealt with so easy.

This has been one shit team effort. Never would have thought the return of our captain and attacking game breaker would result in this uninspiring effort.

I'll commend the scramble tonight and not giving us but everything else has truly been ugly.

How do you actually defend Ponga? Even if not 100% fit there are things he does which aren't indicative of us being a threat to even play finals footy.

We've seen the best of Kalyn Ponga imo. Talent alone can't get you by with an attitude like that. It must be a terrible influence on the younger guys too. Never seen a player so hyped having achieved so little.
