Message: [QUOTE="nopatience101, post: 2330125, member: 1755"] The refereeing in the first half was terrible, If Gidley was penalised how was it not a professional foul? How does a linesman not see a ball going dead on the full? How does a ref award a strip when anyone with common sense would conclude he offloaded the ball because he was caught with it on the 5th tackle? Its not an excuse but those decisions do swing a teams momentum and the way the game is these days its too hard to get it back. The only thing worse than the refereeing was the Broncos defence, its awful atm and the signs have been there since the roosters game, they also didn't do themselves any favors with the poor discipline and dropped balls. Norman seems to have a safety option whereby rather than passing to open men on his outside he straightens the play and kills it, he seems to be very hesitant to pass and would have made more hitups tonight than passes. Dodds workrate atm does not justify his position on the bench. Folau made a lot of noise about going looking for the ball throughout the week but he didn't seem too interested tonight. One of the big differences between the sides tonight was the knights had options, every tackle Mullen or Gidley had at least 3 runners while for the broncos Wallace was left either taking the line on himself or the ball was shifted out to Parker or Gillett to crab across the field looking for an offload. McCullough was great early and really took it upon himself to lead the side, not sure why at that stage he was hooked. Glenn was good again, hes really running hard and showing some good strength the last few weeks. Its a long season and i think its starting to show on the young blood, they're not beyond sneaking into the 8 but i don't think they will be in any condition to challenge if they get there at this stage. The knights were too strong and too fast for us tonight and if Locky's not back next week I think Hunt should probably be given a crack in the halves, it looks a bit beyond Norman atm. [/QUOTE]
