Nah there wasn’t a bad player in green tonight.

Oldie and Simmonsen are really looking the part. I wouldn’t be taking risks with BJ. That’s a nicely balanced team we have at the moment

He didn't lose control of the ball. Tough call I thought.
It was clearly the correct call, unlucky and a try that would have stood 20 years ago before video replay, but he clearly knocks it into the warriors player

These are the advantage of a high quality TV. It was the correct decision with a double touch.

Where to fit Joey, Cotric and Sutton into the 17.

I’d say leave it to Ricky to make those calls and back what he decides - he hasn’t made too many bad calls in 2019!

Another great win.
Great defence and actually they put a team away.
Also how great is it or to worry about the position on the ladder (around 8th) and looking at other results. Also our for and against with

And now to cap off the night, hopefully watch Melbourne destroy Brisbane. Not because I enjoy watching Melbourne win, I don't. Because I enjoy watching Brisbane being destroyed.

Nah I’m not liking the way that Broncos team is shaping up. They have some talent there. They won’t win it but they could knock you out in a final. I’d rather see them drop out I think

na, we'll beat them like they owe us money.
Stop worrying about it guys, there is 2 maybe 3 teams in this comp we have to worry about. And we're one of the 2-3 they have to worry about.

Tarps hasn’t been out of form but he also hasn’t been killing it the last few game. Really happy to see his first half tonight- really top shelf!

Been impressive beating teams sitting 15th and 16th on the ladder.

Thought Sezer was pretty good but he didn't do anything that Jack didn't. Jack did the majority of the kicking too and was threatening the entire night

No one better than Hodgo though, heads and shoulders above the rest. Trailing him was Tapine, who I thought looked like SBW in his prime tonight

I reckon there would be easier teams to meet week one in the finals but confident we’d roll them regardless

No. Not even a little bit
I’m over the moon that we’ve been so **** good that it wouldn’t matter what they did, this warriors team can’t hang with us
Its also the sort of soul destroying loss that makes the last round match against them at home a little easier
Indeed
Let’s not forget we got a try off a very bad forward pass
We haven’t got a lot of calls and it hasn’t remotely mattered
This team is built differently
And I don’t think we got out of second gear.

Exceptionally professional performance.

Whilst I agree we have a balanced side at the moment. Oldfield will drop off next week for Cotric and Simmonsen will likely drop out for BJ when he is ready (if BJ is going to be fit to play this year they will want to give him game time before the finals).

Whilst Simmonsen and Oldfield have both been great and have done nothing wrong Cotric and BJ are bigger weapons for the team and when fit are in our starting side. It is great to have quality depth.

We rev'd it in 2nd and might lurched int 3rd in the back end of the first half, but we just idled out way to a win in the second.

Agree BJ and Cotric are greater attacking weapons but do you tinker with what’s working? I guess you do but geez - I’m comfortable swapping Oldie out despite his great form but I’m loving what Simmonsen is throwing up. Do we really gain lots replacing him?

Simmonsen is a first grade winger; as is Oldfield.

My old man got let go after 26 faithful years. We can not let emotions get in the way of glory. If Cotric and BJ are fit, they play.

Sezer was fantastic today.
Hodgson had the ball on a string!
I loved Red Horses contribution today and thought Joey Tapine had his best performance in a while. He was clearly in managed minutes.
