Again, not totally upset with that loss. Penrith are the back-to-back Premiers and were excellent in defence. We were without Reynolds, but we defended really well and should give us confidence going forward.
We really need to work on our discipline and attacking decision making. There is a lot...
Really didn’t need Walsh to have his worst half of the season with Reynolds out. If he can pick up his level in the 2nd half we might just be a chance.
There are 2 options here for Kevvie if Reynolds is out (I think he should be rested, it will be important to have him fit during Origin period).
Option 1 & most likely. Madden in as a straight swap for Reynolds.
Option 2. Walters to halfback, Paix to start and Mozer to bench.
I think Kevvie...
This!
The ref wasn’t great, but we didn’t help ourselves. The fact that we were in it for most of the game, with everything going against us and playing with 13 for 23 minutes we should be proud of the effort, and use it as motivation all season.
I’d rather beat Melbourne later in the season...
Take off the tinted glasses. Cobbo has had a shocker, Farnsworth a bludger and Walsh some sloppy moments. Munster, Hughes & Grant have aimed up when needed.
Why are people blaming the ref? Cobbo couldn’t catch one all night. Walsh had some good moments, but some shockers as well with ball handling and Farnsworth had a bludger of a game. Storm got the bounce of the ball and their spine is experienced and know how to win big games.
We have been...
We needed everything to go our way once Reynolds went off and just hasn’t happened. We’ve looked on top for periods of the game, but Melbourne are a class act and never let Brisbane feel comfortable.
