May showing his passing game.

His last two touches have been better than Burton just hitting and hoping.

Kikau has a lazy error in him.

Ben in the top grade long enough that they should be gone.

So far one of our worst performances on the year. Defence hasn't been that bad since 2019. Korisau and Martin stopping us from getting embarrassed.

One forward pass away from being down by 12 at some stage....

Better than the Tigers game (and the first half versus the Sharks) with ball in hand!

The main problem I see and it’s been there a few weeks is our lack of or no line speed when defending.we are giving them way to much easy ground .We will win more because there injuries in this game will mean fatigue will hit them last 20 .Martin and api helped tip the game back our way
If we don’t fix the defensive line speed we will lose to the broncos next week

I see it too. Luai/Cleary missing on both edges, probably not communicating and moving up together.

The centre hasn't looked much better. Need Korisau out there for the full second half.

I think Burton will be a good 6 ultimately, but I don't think he is the type of player that you can just drop in there randomly once every 7 or 8 games and expect him to control the game. He needs time to work on his game to find consistency.

May has been anonymous as usual with one excellent, excellent pass. That's all we need today. Let's feed Burton the ball and see what he can do with it. If we lose Luai or Cleary for any finals game.....

We are going to walk all over them in the second half because of all their injuries. Hopefully, it gives Burton a chance to work on his kicking accuracy.
And either

I think the heat is having an effect. We should run away with this in the 2nd half and pile on at least another 20 points.

I thought May had been a lot better today. Definitely have more fluency on the right hand side than there has been in previous games he started.

Burton is still a long way from the finished product. Will be a good player but can probably expect a few tough years unless the Dogs buy some quality big bodies....
