    Lewis is the worst half to ever play any form of football for 125 years

    I'll jump on this and say while i don't think he's near thurston in terms of ability and execution i do think he has great vision. He is too complacent and sticks to structures and trying to set up for something a play or two later rather than taking chances or playing whats in front. Last night...

    Opinion Nick Meaney

    I think Lewis fits the team well with another half like Foran, Lewis doesn't have that urgency that Foran has but he is pretty good at looking at the game in a calm way compared to how we used to be when Josh Reynolds was playing. They are polar opposites but i think if Lewis can pinpoint the...

    Tonight was the night to use him, that last 20 he would have had fresh legs and could have come on for JMK and also would have given more options in the 20. But nah let him sit there, go in against the cowboys pack with one less bloke on the bench, that's a great plan from Pay

    NRL makes massive blunder re Rhyse Martin kicking position.

    Three huge calls that cost us big time

    the penalty try was a penalty try, and i say that as someone who was blowing up about it thinking there was nothing wrong the first time i watched it. He wasn't going for the ball he was hitting chambers and he was a second too early otherwise there would have been no problem.

    NRL makes massive blunder re Rhyse Martin kicking position.

    side line isn't an easier shot, taking it further back from the tryline makes the angle better, not taking it wider out closer to the sideline, a 30m kick 10 in from touch is so much easier than a 30m kick on the sideline
