We can play footy

Those final 13 minutes was something that hasn't been seen for years. The team rolled forward with ease, offloaded at will, threw the ball around and just played the style of football we all know they can play. Hayne's try was a perfect example, receiving a ball from an offload and in space he pushed his way through 2 defenders and carries them over the line. When the team plays football they look like world beaters, let's hope they turn up and play for the full 80mij next week.

  • Why cant they play like that for 80 min? those final 13 minutes prove we have enough talent to score tries,but our defence lets us down. we scored 30 points in 13 minutes, 18 of which were the last 5.Tigers needed 63 mins for their points.I thought the number 17 Ryan had a pretty good game and god involved. 

    • SK has got to let them play football. When we do it we look brilliant. Screw the structure. Our team plays best when they play ad-lib, let them do it and watch what they can do.

  • I totally agree, that last 5 min was exciting footy to watch, probably the best footy parra has played all year. They just threw it around and the Tigers had no comeback for it. if only they can just tighten their defence up, i really think we will see a completely different team.

  • I think good defence will cause other teams to change their game plans, which can create confusion and frustration for them, leaving guys like Hayne, Sandow and Roberts to carve em up!!

  • i missed a good part of the 1st half but thought he played quite well towards the later part of the game. I think it was his 2nd 1st grade game, he scored a try and got involved
