It's a game you will love or hate. I've maybe put 5 or 6 hours in. its very repetitive but I'm enjoying it.
Something totally different.
I think it's a game I'd dig, but do to remoteness i can't get a strong Internet connection and can only play ps4 offline

I blame you for this mistake, jinxing him Diego

Shows when your more expensive players do there jobs, burgess brothers cut the mistakes, so called 'duds' just chip in and it's amazing what can happen.
Don't need mass sackings.
Don't need Inglis to shift position or move on
Let guys like clark and turner just do the job they are paid for.
Definitely don't need farah

Before Souths pride/reborn comes in and writes a novel on why we won I'll just put it down to one simple thing. We are a team that played for each other over the last 2 weeks. As cheesy as that sounds it's true. Everyone did their jobs and gave those little extra efforts.

I agree 100% something has happened behind the scenes and I just wish it happened 10 rounds ago.

Inglis back at 1 helps
Maybe the rumours of Tom being shopped around has had an effect. With the stakes so high it looks like all the key stakeholders in our team are back on the same page as each other.
Maguire has said for weeks if we cut out the mistakes things will turn around. It looks like he was right.

I think GI looked like a different player almost like he forgot which shirt he had on. He deserved to be dropped from 1 when he was but he put in a good performance tonight.
He even looked like a captain which I'm normally very critical of.

I'm sick as a dog. Pleasantly surprised to wake up after half time and it was 31-12.

For 35 minutes I thought I was dreaming.

Could have been the most complete performance I've seen from the bunnies in 20 odd rounds.

And the the two tries Vodafone chalked up in the second half came from soft defence on Manu and a spilt ball from Cody.

Yes. GI looked engaged. At one point I thought I was watching SoO.

100% agree. We don't need a massive clean out. It has been a shit of a year. An outside back, an experienced backrower and improved hooker play (be it in house from Cook or McInnes or from outside) less injuries (we had half our squad out at one stage) and we are a contending team again.

A big part of GI's resurgence the past fortnight could be put down to the fact he played 3 games in like 8 weeks. His knee injuries are a real problem and time away to recover helps big time. The worst thing for us is Kangaroo duties at season's end.

Correct.

The duds played liked dudes.

I don't think it's the knee. In the early rounds we had no go forward. He was being used as a battering ram. In the last week before he was moved, in the game against the broncos, he was our best player. But he ran for something ridicule like 300m+ that game and none of it was from breaks, it was all from forward style hit ups. I think he was mainly moved so he could just focus on doing his own thing in attack and not trying to carry the teams go forward

I've said it heaps of times, our season started with three big injuries to Sutton, Reynolds and Musgrove.

It's been the same all year.

Couple that with ill discipline on and off the field, our season has been a complete cluster***.

They've obviously weeded out some trouble makers, got players back in the squad.

I really thought the nadir was the 50 point shellacking against Canberra and they turned a corner against Melbourne. Beating the Warriors is meh. If we can match the Sharks and Dogs in the next two weeks, I'll be happy. Tough tasks but play like they did tonight and they'll go close.

Nice to see some pace too. Hymel Hunt is exciting. And can we please start a campaign to get Richo to brown paper bag Joe Burgii to stay?!!?!?
