I wasn't actually convinced the point of the ball hit the ground. Nikorima had his arm under the ball as he slid over the line, not actually sure the point of the ball touched.
TPJ has come along so much this season. Been arguably our best player all year. Milford had improved dramatically too.
No need to say arguably, he has been our best by far, but Goates was our best tonight. Bird is an absolute shit cunt. He is a liability in defence and with ball in hand. I really hope he needs to go back to Sydney for family reasons after this season. Major Payne was very impressive in his short stint. The entire team was good apart from Isaako and Bird.
I only caught the 1st half and then the last 10mins to be fair so I probably missed his highlights but he was comically gassed at the back end of that game. There was one set where the Broncos were attacking the line and he dead set didn't move a metre, regardless of where the ball or play was going. It got to one point where a player looked to pass to him and he didn't even flinch. Just so obviously fatigued he just thought fuck it I'm going into an on field coma. Then a couple of minutes later he got penalised for being the 3rd maker cause he was just like 'fuck this shit I aint getting back onside' so he just stood at 3rd marker. Then he got hooked which was a shame because he was good for the lols.

Haas was in everything when he came on, definitely got tired by the end. He's a huge talent though. Nothing wrong with Milford's thing. He barely landed and was clearly off balance. Slater used to do this every time he caught the ball.
Yeah he nudges out a bit but it's pretty innocuous. A little jab like that at someone's thigh isn't going to do anything at worst. When you have people like Slater and Smith kicking out at faces it's much worse.
Oh yeh there's nothing to it I was just posting it for the lols. Starting any defence with "Billy Slater used to it..." is a laugh though
I thought he was going to gas earlier. When he came on he was making 2-3 tackles per set and at least 1 hitup every set, he really tried to be in everything.
