Where's that "caught bombs" stat coming from? Is there a "number of bomb catches attempted" stat? what about a "fell over with the try line wide open" stat? "ran back in off his wing instead of trying to go down the line"? Vidot made more line breaks (10) than Reed (8) and Maranta (7). Vidot...

Well that's about the worst justification ever. "I left him out there for the 80 minutes because since he dropped the ball on all 20 of his hitups before a defender even touched him he wasn't very tired".

Cause apparently you drop your best players to reserve grade to make them play even better, and give your worst players all the minutes lol.

And that was more good than Reed and Maranta have ever done, yet they got picked. Vidot > Maranta/Reed, yet they kept their spots. It was a stupid decision to leave Vidot out then, and it's still a stupid decision now.

He'd be a better fit for retirement. The titans don't need any more shit players.

Did he choose the much maligned Reed and Maranta in his squad in that one game? yes. Griffin copped shit every week of the year for doing that. Bennett gets praised. I'd consider he has done a good job if we play differently than we did last year, for the better. We made the 8 last year, beat...

Origin in QLD now is basically 75% corporates, many of whom couldn't even name the 2 teams that are playing. Big money for the QRL as it's guaranteed sales, but it's wrecking the game. I'm not, because I'm not paying $200 to see a band. Much like I'm not paying $200 to watch an origin that I...

Fact: Henjak/Griffin is a better coach than any one of us. Fact: Henjak/Griffin knows more about the players than us. Forgive us for not berating him, and actually discussing what the motivations are behind each move. Because, strangely enough, there is most likely a reasonable explanation...

Yet 3 years ago it was 1/4 the price. That's what people don't like, not just the fact that it's $200 a ticket. Well that and the fact that only about 10% of the tickets at suncorp are available to the public, and you can only buy a handful in a row.

he missed 1/3 of his attempted tackles. Junior football positions are basically irrelevant. Someone like milford would carve up playing prop in the juniors. They put the best players in positions where they get their hands on the ball the most.

As someone who went to pretty much every origin in QLD from ~1998 to 2013 and stopped going because of the price rising from about $60 to $200 for the same seats over 2-3 years I'm extremely pissed off, and I'm not going to another Origin match in the foreseeable future. Talk about biting the...

We don't need to develop a proper 5/8th, we should be focusing on getting an actual 5/8th and bringing them in instead of trying to turn a fullback into a 5/8th.

You guys realise how hypocritical you're being? banging on about people criticizing bennett when you guys won't let anyone say a bad or even not positive thing about him without you leaping to his defense, more often than not just resorting to personal attacks? (like broncos4life just did above)...

I said IF.... The Whitchurch selection was already one stupid selection. Same with reed and maranta. Same with not picking vidot. If he picked vidot at prop like was rumoured it would have been another.

Re: Bennett explains why he axed Vidot I don't follow?

People are forgetting that Lockyer was just slightly better than a turnstile in defence at the back for his first few years. He ended his fullback run as one of the best. Slaters defence was also questioned, especially here on bhq, and again, one of the best ever now. Milford is 19, his defence...

Didn't watch the Broncos game on Thursday night I see lol.

He was tackled in the air iirc? Or it was raked in a 2 man tackle or something like that. Either way it was a penalty, incorrect ref decision.

If you consider a blatantly wrong refereeing decision as barba losing it then I guess barba helped lose the game. Wait on....people are now blaming barba for the team losing from 20 points in front against the sharks? Lolololololololololololololololol

Thats speculation unless you can provide a source. My opinion is that he was moved because Hoffman was stinking up the place at 5/8th, so having them switch was better for the team as Hoffman is a better fullback than 5/8th and barba wasn't setting the world alight from fullback. Better to have...
