20 mins - Souths Logan attacking the line, sees a Cronin pass from dummy half intercepted, but the offending player was ruled offside. In the ensuing set, Rapana takes the ball to the line, pops a neat offload and Anderson scores a good try. Souths Logan 4 - 6. Conversion five metres in from left side line floats across the sticks. No goal.

25 mins - A move out to the right sees Bateman (I think - the camera angle isn't the best) pass to Mago out the back, who runs a nice unders line to cross for the second Souths Logan try in two sets. Rapana kicks the goal this time. 10 - 6.

Thanks for this Travis

Son, we live in a world that has forums, and those forums have to be guarded by Mods. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Nickman? I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for Lucy, and you curse GE. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know -- that GE’s moderation, while tragic, probably saved lives; and my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, keeps threads on track and under the appropriately sized, highlighted green headings.
You want moderation because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that forum -- you need me on that forum. We use words like "stay on topic," "use the appropriate forum," "please delete." We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very moderation that I provide and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather that you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you get a green handle and edit a post. Either way, I don't give a DAMN what you think about moderation.

38 mins - Easts score after some good offloading draws in too many right edge defenders and the ball is passed out to the left winger. 10 - 10.

Sounds like a better game.
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.

Not a bad half from Souths Logan. Very high completion rate and not too many missed tackles. Easts have also played pretty well. Most sets have gone from end to end. Both sides have lacked a bit of polish on the sixth tackle options, with many grubbers going too deep or bombs being caught in goal. Easts had those two line goal drop outs early on, but besides that, most repeat sets have occurred as a result of penalties. Both Souths Logan tries came off penalties.

Bateman has been busy in defence, PAGE had some good runs and tidies up that ruck area in defence. Rapana has been good at the back, too. All in all, a much better shower than the dross that has been so far dished up about 1200km South-South-West of here.

Second half under way.
41 mins - Souths Logan error coming out of their own end is compounded by a penalty deep in Easts' tackle count.

43 mins - Some poor defence on the right edge (Mago included) and good vision from Easts sees the Easts left centre score. 10 - 16.

46 mins - Great work from Cody Walker (Easts five-eighth) sets up a try underneath the black dot from the next set. Conversion successful. 10 - 22. Easts quick out of the blocks in the second half.

49 mins - Third try in three sets for Easts. Rolling down the park easily and then off loads open up the field for Walker again to find support. Conversion successful. 10 - 28.

53 mins - Souths Logan finally force an error to get some ball. Bateman runs it (well, he slipped over) on the 4th and draws a penalty.

54 mins - Another penalty right on the line gives Souths Logan another set in attack. They go right and Mago runs the ball very well to take a couple tacklers over the line with him and scores his second for the afternoon. Conversion unsuccessful. 14 - 28.

59 mins - Ben Jackson puts up a good bomb and Rapana does very well to snatch it in traffic and score 10 metres or so to the left of the sticks.

70 mins - Rapana put into a good hole and makes 70 metre break. He offloads to his centre who is taken down short. They receive a penalty, but the set ends when the 6th tackle grubber is defused by the Easts fullback.

72 mins - A break in play as an Easts player is down injured (Kaufusi?). While I have the time; no Phil Dennis today, with Bateman seemingly playing five-eighth. In name only, though, as Jackson seems to be directing all of the play as a traditional halfback, both sides of the ruck. Bateman still defending in the middle, with Cronin seemingly on the right edge (inside Mago).

75 mins - Disorganised set ends in the bomb being knocked on. Easts knock on shortly later and then Souths Logan throw a forward pass. Running out of time here.

Fulltime - Easts win 28 - 20. Souths Logan had most of the running from about 53 minutes in, but Easts' defence was too good. Though Jackson was good, having only the one half made our attack pretty poor at times. The ten minute period after halftime was the difference, as Easts scored three tries in three sets of six. The starting front row was put back out there to stop the rot, but we couldn't quite get back in it. PAGE was great and Rapana had a blinder, especially in the second half. Cronin was ok, though backs his good darts from dummy half with a poor decision (ie. taking the tackle and being driven back, instead of passing), much like Buttriss does. Mago was pretty quiet; he didn't go looking for ball, rather waited on the right edge (much like last week, but with tries instead of errors). His two tries were good and showed how damaging he can be on the right edge, but I think he needs to do a bit more work, rather than involve himself only when we have the ball ten metres out and it goes his way. Bateman was good and had a few good touches, but I don't think he's a five-eighth. He tackles all afternoon and his match fitness has improved since the game I saw him play when he was forced into longer minutes through injuries (it was a Channel Nine game a month or so ago).

Whoops, just as I say that about Buttriss, I see him put in a sweet grubber after a good break. That's better than anything Cronin did today.
