Surely this game must indicate to Lockyer that he needs to devote his time to the Broncos next season - we needed him badly out there to guide the team, give them direction, make sure the game-plan was being well executed etc. Tonight he looked very tired and his contribution when it really mattered (i.e. for the first 25-30 mins after halftime) lacked!

I'm not sure about that, I know I was expecting Wallace to step up and relieve some pressure from Lockyer, especially after his (Wallace's) performance last week. But, bar his try, Wallace had a woeful game IMO.
What really hurt us was the amount of mistakes we made, which were very basic. We only have ourselves to blame.

Very Very Very bad. The problem being is that we cant afford games like that this year. Past years we have been in the top 4 but with this loose we will be out of the top 8. Problem is we go to Parra stadium next week and try and beat a team in form and if we happen to loose we will be looking at 13th, 14th spot on the ladder. People may go Meh its only one loose but sadly the past 5-6yrs we have continually lost numerous games during and after the origin period. Year after year we are in the top 4 and then we drop right off. THIS YEAR THAT CAN NOT HAPPEN OTHERWISE WE CAN SAY GOODBYE TO FINALS!@!@!@!@!
I am hoping that this isnt the start of a familar slide during the origin period for the Broncos!!! TBH i didnt see this loose coming but like the past years i didnt see them looses coming either. If we play like that next week im going to start to feal very sick!!!!

IMO Hunt needs to start at Hooker and McCollough can come on as a impact player. Hunt's passes are a lot better and he gives the ball straight away. McCollough needs to pick his act up. I have been calling for Hunt to start all year and that game from McColllough just reinforces my thinking that Hunt is playing better footy then McCollough.

Spot on Mr. Rock. Our halves struggled terribly and apart from Sammy and Ashton Sims, so did the forwards and Penrith were very strong defensively. Yet the Broncos could have just as easily won that game with a little luck. I'm not pressing the panic button yet, we will be in the playoffs and will probably make some noise there as well.

Yeah mate, I noticed your POTS points and figured you were a bit of a loony. :mrgreen:
We'll have to disagree I guess. I don't think he looked dangerous at all, in fact, I think he wasted a lot of opportunities. He seemed to throw a lot of dummy's, which eventuated in nothing, and I just don't think he ever really threatened the Panthers' defensive line - except for that try.
His defence was good though, I'll give him that.

I'm with ning, I thought Wallace looked bizarrely lost quite a few times. It was as though he didn't understand why they kept passing it to him.
Either way, the entire team was flat. I'm not worried at this stage but it will be very interesting to see if they can dig themselves out by next weekend.
On the plus side, I thought Hoffman had another pearler of a game.

Where was our go forward from previous weeks. It looked like a deliberate tactic to play wide but this should have been corrected at half time or early in the second half by IH. We have enough very good and inform backrowers without our props playing that way as well.
Macca seriously needs to be told to get his dummy half play in order first then worry about having a lash, he is a good kid but he looks to much for the stand out play.
This was a game for the taking and such a shame to lose 2 points with a really soft performance.
