vs Cowboys

[MKEB...]

Now my nerves are royally stuffed.

 

[Cold Roses]

Happy for the win, but seriously, we're still just playing in patches. Same as we have for the last few years. A better team than the Cows would have put us away tonight. We were our own worst enemies. Case in point, penalty against us for strip in the 77th minute on the 4th tackle against Mannering?? Can't remember who else was in the tackle. Pathetic. Wtf are these guys thinking sometimes? Still a long way to go.

 

[Blair]

Or Hurrell's dud play the ball which Friend knocked on. What was there, one minute to go at that stage?

Yeah we all know that. But shit, sit back and enjoy a hard fought win. They played with heart. They won.

That was our senior player Mateo

It was just well milked by Thurston. He knew there was no way the refs were calling a lost ball in that situation.

 

[Fufu Andronez]

Some very good signs though, Townsend giving it to Friend for that sloppy pass from dummy half was a very good sign we need more people calling out shit behaviour. Also good to see Manu and Hurrell start to run in when Sims tried to hurry up Neilsen who was down with cramp. Show some mongrel boys

 

[TheDMC]

Yep, they never showed a replay where you could see what happened. Chances of Thurston milking - 100%

And one of the Sims dived between player legs from what looked like slightly square of marker, in a play that would of been plenalised 99 times out of 100.

100% agree he is pretty much not able to knock on in the last 5 in a pressure game. Te refs will never ever call it

 

[Cold Roses]

Like I said, happy for the win, but there's a bigger picture to look at. If we continue to come up with those dumb plays we won't get wins against better teams. We may have finally played with a bit of heart, but NQ were desperately unlucky tonight.

Oops. Sorry Konrad.

The ABC radio commentators said it was Hurrell. They generally sounded punch drunk all game.

And the bigger picture also means that if the game had been lost we'd be on here having a go at the coach, the management, senior players, new recruits, the culture, the princess...

But the ball bounced the other way tonight, good.

great call...

I don't think Johnson is a Tomkins fan…see SJ manhandle ST at the end there?

No, what do I have to go back and watch?

 

[MKEB...]

Mannering 110m 27 t
Lilleyman 180m 27t
Rapira 174m 24 t
Bakuya 57m 36t
Mateo 101m 21t
Matagi 97m 14t

main forwards appear to have played bloody well

 

[Cold Roses]

But the ball bounced the other way tonight, good.

And I'll take it every time it does. But a lucky win after massively losing our way from a healthy lead isn't going to get me imagining premiership glory just yet Intrinsic problems don't just change overnight.

 

[Cold Roses]

I actually liked his efforts in general tonight. It was far from perfect, but he is at least trying to create opportunities.

 

[Scorpio30]

I think its the penalty we receive at the very end when Fish is tackled on the ground?
