Good win. Much improved across the park and we looked like a much more cohesive unit. Still a fair way to go though, I think we're still playing a gear or two below where we can/will be. Both areas of attack and defence was great to see. Thought SKD had a solid first half but really threw us off in the second with his two blunders which was a shame to see considering he has been good so far this year. Was nice to see Ross step up in the centres as well; aside from one or two breaks from Roberts, he was great and even better on chasing kicks.
Usual suspects were amazing. Ponga is a freak that gives me a chub every time he touches the ball, Pearce is the leader the club has needed for years, Griffin is incredible in the middle and Fitzgibbon had a blinder. I didn't worry about this result even when they pulled it to 5 points; their attitude these last two weeks stopping the Dragons and Roosters from scoring more points than what they probably deserved was encouraging despite those losses. I couldn't see Brisbane scoring again in the final minutes. A real testament to what the new, experienced players have brought to the team.
Think we'll have a real crack at Melbourne next week; keen to be there for it.
