I'm supposed to meet up with EWS as the lazy prick still owes me a carton from when we bet on the 2007 series.
Mate, two passes also means more chance of errors. Watch QLD closely on the replay. You can't tell me we looked any better going two wide than simple dummy-half and one out runs. One out is acceptable and IMO, preferred in soaking conditions.
Definitely more chance of an error, but better to have our guffrey forwards running into Harrison and Thurston wider than running into Petero and Scott up the middle. I do understand why players wouldn't go out there looking for it, but when they started to get dominated in the forwards I was waiting for a plan b and there was none. A bit off topic but what did people think of Cronk when he came on? Looked pretty dangerous at times imo, I'm going to watch a replay this afternoon for a better game analysis.
If they're going to pick absolutely nobody else to make metres, I've no issue with him giving away the odd penalty or dropping the odd ball. Makes sense for him to be tired.
Just happened to notice during the last few years how well my neck of the woods (North Brisbane) has been represented. Petero Civoniceva & Brent Tate - Redcliffe Dolphins (15 minutes down the road, over the Hornibrook/Ted Smout Bridge). ****ing hate Redcliffe. Michael Crocker - Brighton Roosters (At the end of my street). Played and refereed there since I was 6. Ashley Harrison & David Stagg - Aspley Devils (15 minutes away). Played there when I was 11. David Shillington - Norths St. Josephs (10 minutes away). Played there when I was 12 and 13 with Rohan Ahern (Broncos squad). Shaun Berrigan - Wests Mitchelton. (25 minutes away). Fatty Vautin's old club. Dane Carlaw - Brisbane Brothers. (20 minutes away). Brother played colts.
Maybe not at the start of the game... blind Freddy could've told you that Weyman and TLL were much more effective than the two ****s once it started though.
Mate, when I saw him at fridays last weekend I literally would have let him anally penetrate me. It would have been a ****ing honour. Oi dude, did you go to ladies oaks day today? It was so ****ing epic.
