Good second half. Sin bin was the turning point.

Scoreline masks things a little. I don't think they will be complacent next week but it was a poor first half execution wise. Much better in the second.

Good win in the end.

The swarming defence seems to have gone.

Reynolds was awesome for the Broncos.

Nathan only seems to go into his bag of tricks once we are well ahead.

Yeah I can't imagine Ivan being happy with the defence

Yep not happy.

Tago copped a hiding of one of the best attacking centres in the game (when in form)...

Tbh im happy we won.. tago and may will take a lot from that but realise that its not all roses in the nrl.

Overall we did what we had to.

Pretty avg performance but put on 40 so cant conplain to much i guess.

Hats off to the bronco’s, they played really well in the first half.
100% completions and no silly penalties, Reynolds kicking was great.
The thing about our team is we just keep chipping away. The score board just ticks over sometimes and we turn performances ee don’t look amazing into 40 point wins.

I reckon we need to give Tago a couple of games back in NSW Cup to get his mojo back. His defence has been getting consistently worse all season, and excluding the first 20min last week, he's pretty much been invisible in attack recently too.

Bring in Rennings or Salmon for a couple of weeks, bring Tago back for the Eels game with a new fire in the belly, and less video for Eels and Storm to exploit.

Overall it was a weird kinda game tonight. Got the feeling that we were a bit complacent in the first half, and were lucky to go into the break ahead.

Really took our chances during the sinbin period. Thought our power game through the middle was really good.

Deadset its a weak comp at the moment though. We haven't looked great in attack since Rnd 1 and we're still averaging 30 points a game.

Tago won't learn anything back in Cup imo. Needs to keep getting tested at NRL level in defence

It was a good game. Bronocs probably just about played at their full potential (particularly given outs) in the first half and we were probably a 7 out of 10.

In the second half we probably played a little better and they were a little worse.

Overall great to win by over 20 points!!
