Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 2697457, member: 1899"] Just had a sneaky peak at the replay and wanted to share something I noticed before I head to bed. Live, I thought the try was really and undeserved. Bounce pass to Kahu with a ton of room? Clearly the Broncos simply took advantage of an inexperienced pairing. However, watching it again, I didn't realise how well constructed the try was. Nothing fancy, just good ball movement that stretched the Dragons on both sides. The key moment was the ball from Thaiday to Parker that put Parker one on one with Frizell. This caused Ah Mau to rush off the line to close it, causing the Dragons to reshuffle. Next play, Macca hits Blair with a great ball, sucking in Widdop who's forced in much closer than he should be. Blair did exceptionally well to win the ruck for the Broncos, get the quick play the ball giving the Broncos an easy four on two advantage. It just highlights how much more direction the team has this year, as well as the difference Blair makes. If it was Wallace taking the hit up, there's no way he get the play the ball through before Widdop recovers. Also got to give Maxwell credit. I thought the penalty against de Belin was pretty harsh on first view. I just thought it was a dominant tackle on Milford and he deserved some extra time in the ruck. However, replays showed that the Dragons peeled off 3-2-1 giving Maxwell no choice. I rarely see those given, definitely didn't see enough given against the Bulldogs so credit where it's due.
