Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 3119041, member: 1899"] With the 2015 Grand Final, I feel it's important that fans watch previous clash for context. This wasn't just an 81 minute game, it was a 161 minutes of pulsating action. I feel for the Broncos in the GF. They received a lot of criticism for not playing football but they were starved of field position. A lot was made of their decision to keep finding touch which started happening early in the second half. The thing was, it was rarely by design. There was one kick that completely bamboozled Feldt and it somehow bounced on a right angle towards touch instead of bouncing forward and possibly giving the chasers a play on it. Then there were instances where Nikorima went for a scurry got caught on the last, panic past to Hunt who just had to get a kick away. They only started going for it in the last 10 minutes when it made sense. There were a few times the referees would have relieved the Broncos if this was a regular season game. However since it was a grand final, they tried to stay out of it as much as possible so Brisbane found themselves trying to kick themselves out of trouble. Don't forget that Feldt knocked the ball out of Milford's hands forward either. [/QUOTE]
