Tough game but closer than I thought it would be. I expected to lose by a large margin as soon as Reyno went off. This game does have me excited that by the end of the year our forwards could be Haas, Jenson, Carrigan, Piakura, Riki, Te Kura, Willison, Oates(sorry Kobe we need that backline cover). We just need to win some games during this injury period and the origin period(and learn how to get the ball back from short drop offs or erase them completely).
Whatever you don't read any comments on facebook about the Walsh injury. I've seen numerous monkey emoji's, people calling Walsh a sook, other people having a go at the broncos for trying to put him back on... etc etc... it really is the worst.
At this point I am hoping that the broncos give TPJ a deal right before the next penrith game with the terms in the contract of causing as many accidental HIA's as possible.
May should be suspended but I am sure the MRC will clear him because he isn't wearing yellow and maroon. At the end of the day it sucks and the next month or so will be rough but it could also be the sort of month that really brings a team together in the trenches if they can hold it together and snag a couple of wins while the big guns are out. Hopefully the time off healing allows the big guns to be fresh by the back in the of the season.
I think the match would have been different without the HIA so nothing to worry about yet but the team do have some things to work on.
I am still waiting for the headline of "OMG IS THAT TPJ's MUSIC?" and the media to say we need to get him in the team ASAP because we lost a game on a non regulation field with one man down after 3 minutes.
