The Broncos have an offensive coordinator on the field and it didn't do them much good.
Gina Riley: Oh, come on, John. That’s a bit old hat, the corrupt IOC delegate.
John Clarke: Old hat? Gina, in the scientific world when they see that something is happening again and again and again, repeatedly, they don’t call it old hat. They call it a pattern.

Why did I choose the Raiders over the Roosters again?’

50th min Munster kick goes dead. They simply can't find a forced line drop out. The Roosters are making huge metres every set. The Storm just can't get any decent territory.

The spiral of silence refers to the idea that when people fail to speak, the price of speaking rises. As the price to speak rises, still fewer speak out, which further causes the price to rise, so that fewer people yet will speak out, until a whole culture or nation is silenced. This is what happened in Germany.

If you do not speak, you are not being neutral, but are contributing to the success of the thing you refuse to name and condemn.

Roosters tactic of first 3 tackles setting up the set isn't new, what makes it impressive is they do it so well consistently

53rd min The Roosters' Joseph Manu knocks on the grubber on his own goal line. This is really the Storm's first opportunity in the red zone the whole game.

55th min Munster goes over, but there's a stupid obstruction from Asofa Solomona on Cooper Cronk. Incredibly stupid. Clumsy.

60th minute mark... and the Storm still trail 18-0. They must score four tries in the final 20 minutes, but have not really looked like scoring.

63rd min TRY STORM to Josh Addo Carr. An intercept and he goes the length. Looking at an eight point try, with Tupou going in with the knees. Not an issue according to the bunker. Cameron Smith converts.

Roosters 18-6
