Agree there but a coupe times last night we had that opportunity and they stopped and tried coming back in.
Just run the ball like a hairy goat.
Also our service to our centres last night was awful. We got the ball out to them sometimes, but I seem to recall Reimus getting it a few times in the attacking zone with two defenders already lining him up and his winger also marked.

So there's been 3 captain's challenges so far, and 2 of them the video ref has got it wrong.

Why did they think this would work?

Reimis belongs on the wing, service is an obvious issue all the way from dummy through Lewis. Share the ball playing more and piss off the one man out runs

What is being revealed is the fiction of ball control in RL. This was all fine back when it was just the ref making decisions in real time, whatever he decided was how it went, end of story. Now with super slow-mo we discover the truth, the ball is bobbling all over the place, deciding knock-on, strip, or anything else is rendered subjective.

Yeah the one out runs really annoy me, especially when we are starting to make a few metres and are in their half. We need some guys on the edge of the ruck who know how to engage the line, draw in defenders, get a pass away.

Pretty much what Foran does...

He’s worth the mil easy.
No way Bonkos should be able to hang onto Haas, Fifita, TPJ, Flegler, AND have anyone in their backline worth more than 300k. Time to start tracking what clubs are offering players and counting a players worth in the cap at least partly based on what other teams are realistically able to offer them.

100%. If they keep him it’s a joke, you’d think we’d offer something decent. Along with 14 other clubs

Croft has been such a great addition. Broncos biggest weakness has been no real Halfback to lead this team, and Croft's come in and straightened them right up.
Letting Milford play his natural running game.

Fifita's already done that exact same thing multiple times. He didn't even have the best game tonight but still nasty.

Wish we made an offer. Always had the talent. It's hard to follow in Cronk's place
