Jack Bird is fit as **** and he's fucking fired up.

He wants to shut everyone up. And when Jack Bird is in that kind of mindset, he tends to deliver. Hopefully he can remain injury free and can continue to build on his good performance tonight. He'll be a huge asset to the side if he can.

He can be that missing piece we've been missing on the left edge since the retirement of Jack Reed.

Yes 100%, he’s going to be one of our best this year if the last two weeks are a guide. It’s a shame what happened last year, but the kid can definitely play footy.
 
Few thoughts on tonights game.

-Bird was awesome tonight. That should give him some confidence.

- Love Flegler!

- Pangai is not human, needs to be starting Lock when Lodge comes back. He is literally born to play there.

- Macca had a reasonable second half but fark me his service in the first half was horrible, simply not good enough.

-Boyd was great tonight. Did what a captain should do and lead by example.

- There is a lot of things we can improve on but it was still a big improvement on last week.

- I was not surprised to see our young fowards smash their overrated pack.
 
Taumalolo's stats.

7 runs, 46 metres, 0 tackle breaks, 0 linebreaks, 0 linebreak assists, 0 offloads.

That right there says a lot about TPJ's performance tonight. He made Taumalolo his bitch for the second year in a row.

Stats are obviously massively skewed by that hit.

Which was phenomenal, but tpj won’t get him at that angle every game.
 
Loved being at the game. The boys were fired up and hitting hard. Tpj and lodge should start the game and Flegger and either hass or offa can fight it out for the other spot. Offa was good tonight and aggressive but Flegger in two games is a fucking weapon. He hurts you. I would keep Gillett and Sua as our Locks.

I think everyone improved from last week so now we must totally destroy the merge.
 
1. Boyd - Pretty happy with his game. Ran hard, was barking orders in the huddle and made no stupid mistakes. Now if only he could play like that every week. 6
2. Oates - Bagged a couple and was fairly solid running us out of our end. Also scored me 90 bucks on FTS so he gets the crackers. 8
3. Roberts - GO YOURSELF MAN. The kick he did on zero for the repeat set worked out well for us in the end but he had space to move. Go yourself boy. Show us why you're in the side. Otherwise he was quite solid and happy to see his back pulled up good. 6
4. Bird - His best game in our colours. Hit hard in defence, ran hard in attack, shored up our left side really well and made it a mission to support Milf in tackles. He may make his signing worth it yet. 7
5. Isaako - Probably his worst game in first grade. Was far from his sharpshooting best in goalkicking which cost us a 40 point drubbing of the nemesis and was never sure of himself under the high ball. I'm confident its a one off though as he works incredibly hard. He'll bounce back. 3
6. Milford - Had a couple of decent kicks in general play but otherwise was still incredibly quiet in a dominant side. I'm pretty concerned about him. It's like he's been rattled mentally by an injury and is scared to go nuclear. Seibold needs to sit him down and get it sorted. When you're getting outplayed by Nikorima, you know you've got issues. 4
7. Nikorima - Didn't shame himself. Ran when he saw some opportunities, had a few good kicks and was very unlucky to not to get that beautiful long kick which barely trickled dead in the 2nd half. Lets hope he can keep it up. 6
8. TPJ - Absolute. Monster. Came out with a mission to demolish everything in front of him, especially JT2, and boy did he pull it off. The young Lion came in, mauled the older pride leader and made a statement I hope he backs up consistently. Sadly for us, he may have just played himself into the Blue. Couldn't have done any better playing Prop. He gets the 10
9. McC - He remains the biggest weakness in this side other than underperforming halves. He tackled less tonight, yet still seems very slow, especially the dummy half runs he makes which barely dent the line. His fanboys need to accept that he's plateaued. 4
10. Joe O - Perfectly serviceable work in the middle though a tad overshadowed by others like TPJ and Flegler. Can't recall any penalties or errors from him. Good stuff. 7
11. Glenn - The least impressive starting forward of the night. Couldn't bend the line and just generally was far from standing out. Might need to look over his shoulder a bit towards the young blokes flying up his ass. 5
12. Fifita - As opposed to Glenn, he did pretty well. Ran with some starch and defended well. Would like to see a bit more from him in attack going forward but seems pretty safe. 6
13. Gillett - I think it's time he moved back to the edge. He certainly isn't shaming himself at 13 but his best qualities clearly aren't being utilized there. I wanna see that hole running again. 5

14. Staggs - Had limited minutes but jagged himself a try assist off a good run towards the end. He is useful as a utility option but I can see Turpin troubling him if McC continues to underwhelm. 5
15. Su'a - Speaking of underwhelming. He just hasn't had a very good start to the year. He looks out of shape and just pretty mediocre in general. May be on shaky ground with Lodge and Haas yet to return. Needs to put in fast. 4
16. Flegler - Welp, this young man has a big future. Considering this was his 2nd game of first grade, he was very impressive. Has at least earned some time to grow on the bench for a few rounds. 7
17. Fensom - Not much to say for him. Came on very late and only made a handful of tackles. Will get some bench time when we're inevitably torn apart by Origin but otherwise, will be lucky to get beyond 18th man. 4

Is it they're not standing deep enough?

or is it because our dummy half is as slow as **** and can't pass for shit?

WOW! Good thing we won by a mile or you would be really cranky!
 
I was pleasantly surprised to see The BRONCOS play so well. Hats off to them. Earlier I was worried but they hunted as a pack. Everyone bought in and played as a well functioning unit.

Thought our 1 and 9 had better games. Macca was a bit better and Boyd had a good steady game. The standouts have been given a shout but even Isaako had good moments in amongst the plentiful forgettable ones. Milford wasn't terrible and will get better.

Fantastic effort from Seibs Broncos.
 
Happy with the win though we still have lots of room for improvement. This win will only march us in the right direction and pave for something phenomenal in October.

Few things that's weird to me:
1. What's wrong with our design of jersey's (both home & away). They look dreadful. Wonder who's making decisions in finalizing the designs. They surely are on a mission to choose something that doesn't appeal to the fans at all.
2. What was the reff thinking towards the end? Glad it wasn't a close game like last year. If it was was, then Mr. Atkins was on a mission to hand over the 'W' to Cows.
3. In all honesty, neither Maccas try nor Oneil's try should have been allowed. In saying that , we bombed a couple and Osako missed hell lot of conversions to his sharp shooting standards.

Hope Anthony.S polishes on our goods & improve on our mistakes for the next game against 'Drag Queens'. Would love to see our boys absolutely trash them next week especially a couple of tries towards T.Sims side.

Don't blame the refs for that cluster **** of 5 mins at the end. Both Staggs and Isaako need a fucking clip over the ear for the shit they pulled. Very, very dumb football.

I hope you're not a teacher. No one would pass with the marks you hand out!
 
Much improved performance. As long as we continue to improve small 1%ers im happy. Maccas premeditated kick on 3rd when under pressure wasnt on, just gave them good field position and Isaako going for the speccie catch from the bomb.
Should easily smash the dragons next week. Time for payback on last years finals embarrassing exit.
Tpj has to start when fit, either lock or prop.
Lacked execution still, milf still needs to improve his passing game.

According to ARL Rules book February 2019 Section 10 in the notes section seems to say that there has to be a catcher for a pass to be forward. Have I interpreted this correctly?
