Would have thought Pene was a shout. Nervous about how we run out the game if we have all of Olam, Coates, Tui and Sims back without a run in QLD first.

Honestly surprised it looks like Pezet is going to play. Not sure what it means for Wishart? Still hasn’t had the right opportunity despite plenty of game time. Feel like it would be better for his development if he played one position in the Qcup every week.

Tend to agree blazza, but he probably goes back to that 14 role for now.

I'm wondering whether we can do any worse than this shower of shIte, Doing everything we can possibly do to hand them the 2 points. Ill-discplined and wouldn't b surprised to see him marching players off for 10 soon. Fkme.

Absolute rubbish...So far 3 6 again sets,,,countless penalties and I've lost count of the number of times we get the ball back, then give it straight back to them and they score!!

That is a shocker from Warbrick. I mentioned in the preseason (I think) that I thought he played with no aggression. We saw it on that "attempt". Really really soft.

His defence is terrible. He just can't read what's in front of him.

We can consider ourselves very fortunate as we are playing against a team of dead set spuds.
