Two tough ruck penalties as well

what was that for? ref called that ok??
No luck. Kicker jumps while trying to charge down. Unlucky.

man Nock fucked that up going blind, then we blow yet another chance
Stupid low %. What was Latu doing there? Brain dead
well, the last 2 games we have scored 0 in the 2nd half, so I wonder what this 2nd half has i store for us....

I think we have the slight wind advantage so hopefully better territory. Have to score early to make a game of it.
Some of our forwards look slow. That first try was symptomatic - passive tackling with players spreading for next phase, and no one attacking the ball at the ruck. You could see it coming.
cracks me up listening to the comms, they mention a player (Nock) about how important he is, shows they havent watched much of him.
fark, only 7 points form those possession and territory stats...hopefully they will tell the final quarter
that end pretty much sums our game up.
Plenty of endeavour, just lacking any accuracy.
Stuff to like from that, but ultimately, we have seen this movie before and dont like the ending.
IMO, there are several of the starters need a rocket and be benched, i know the comms were prasiing Nock, but he only had about 10 mons where he was decent, rest he is a handbrake with his indecision
@taniwharugby true re overuse of kicking. Also, Murray probably had his worst game. But they both are quality.
I like the threat of Latu on attack, but we just can’t afford players that choose bad options. He is a repeat offender. Nock needs to run the cutter better. Harris is doing a great job when he comes on.
