Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 2484680, member: 1899"] This game is a perfect example of why I love this club - so much character. What I really appreciated was that when things were beginning to look pear shape, the boys stepped up another gear and really took it to the Cowboys with McCullough hitting Scott with the tackle of the game to regain possession. Then that effort in the corner - great hands from Norman and Reed equaled by a great effort to just put the ball down before entering touch from Hoffman. The boys have shown a lot of belief since that Storm game and it's just really reassuring after some anxious performances. Forwards were sublime. Up against one of the best front rows in the world, the boys stood tall and out-played them with Hannant & Parker in particular starring. Tough to pick between either player really for man of the match but I believe Channel 9 got it right with Parker who threw a beautiful offload to help set up the first points of the night before making an absolute try saving tackle on Cooper that changed the complexion of the game. Speaking of that instance, maybe it's my Broncos tinted glasses, but the refs. have seemingly been against us since Round 1. Some of those calls from Klein were dead-set terrible and it just seems like he tries to stand out by making 'clever' calls that just turn out to be really stupid. Still can't believe he got a gig after his terrible performance in the 2008 WC Final. Good to see Hala improve on his last game too. He's still far from match fit hence he came off only 5 minutes into the second half (he looked buggered coming off too) but once he gets going, he should be an absolute weapon off the bench. What a run to open the second half! Also how good is it to see the side assert themselves as the dominant Queensland side? After all the hoopla about how amazing the Titans and Cows were (even from our own supporters) it's good to be able to rub it in their faces. [/QUOTE]
