Outside of the missed sin bin at the start I like this ref now.No Sutton, no win for the scum of the league.
both are equally shit in defense but atleast with avo you can see he knows how to chime into the backline. Perham just can’t do that.The elephant in the room is Jake Averillo. Potter could see it but ciraldo couldn’t . Our attack looked way better with him playing FB. Although defensively I think perham is better with his positioning , averillo adds more to the team playing fb. The dogs are going to regret losing him I feel
Wasn't it revealing that we didn't get the rough end of the pineapple every single time. Very, very obvious he reffed as fairly as we've ever seen for quite a fair while. Made it a fair contest for a change.Outside of the missed sin bin at the start I like this ref now.
It was a catch 22. Averillo was also our best attacking centre this year but his defense is suspect. When all is said and done, we were a couple of spine players and a couple of middles short this year so CC was doing a juggling act.The elephant in the room is Jake Averillo.

Thought we were clearly better than Souths than the score indicated. We sure do give away some easy tries. Broncs will target Sexton so CC needs to coach some protection for him close in. The guys proved they can look like a f/g team and need to continue progressing.As much as we played a very weakened team last night, the victory was a very important one for us (and for me as I was surrounded by a bunch of quite feral Souths fans). The score ended up significantly closer than it should have been but it wasn't surprising considering confidence would have been very low after the past month.
Hopefully, the win will help them build a little confidence moving forward as they have a very tough month ahead. Some good signs without getting too carried away with the result. Sexton's debut was a good one and his partnership with Burton looks to have some great potential. It's a tough period ahead so I'm sure there'll be some very painful times to come but it was great to see how happy (and no doubt, relieved) the team were on the field after the game.
Thought we were clearly
Pleasing to see some green shoots after last week in the efforts of Wilson, Skelton and Topine and Kiraz looked fresher than he has in recent weeks and looked much more like the early season version that was so effective. On to Belmore and the Broncos...
I agree but last night was kings best game in monthsKing missed 2 tackles that led to tries. He has fallen off a cliff. His defence has been horrible for most the year
did u want me to praise them after the game last week broEvery Person (so called supporter) that rubbished our team after last week should be named and shamed... ooo ahh up the dogs
With Avo at FB @ Chriten would have hhave been the way to go.If Crichton is getting $750k and Burton $800k Ava is worth $400/$450k we should have matched the fins offer.
Instant replacement for GrubTopine bleeds blue and white
Our sets at their line when we had them scrambling were very wasteful. Stood too deep and passes too long. Someone did something silly before we could execute or build.I hated this fkn game. They deadset scored every single time they were in our 20 - bar one when Burton got away with a loose ball and one where they scored from their own 20.
Whatever the fuck our "defensive structure" is - it is either fkn shit or the players are fkn shitter and literally cannot tackle anymore.
EQW is not the answer at centre.
Unsure if I fell into commentators narrative with Sexton also but we had like 6 sets in a row on their line and we got nothing out of him.. Jury is out.
I'm very negative about this whole club atm too so I really can't find the positive. That's just me though.Our sets at their line when we had them scrambling were very wasteful. Stood too deep and passes too long. Someone did something silly before we could execute or build.
They should be better over next few weeks. Put it this way: they'll need to be
