He has been better with the ball that’s for sure, but the non desire to chase and to shut down situations like that last raiders play or the raiders intercept has been in his game all year.
He is hobbling a lot so think he is playing injured but he needs to be 100% fit to be out there

Easy work. Never in doubt.

I'm just glad he tried something.

Two excellent questions.

The worst part of this is it's going to ratify the grinding style OB wants us to play. We just out grinded Cenberra after all.
When in fact, we played rubbish, but Canberra played rubbisher!
We have to chance our arm more. Kicks on the last need to be taken by Pryce not Hastings.
Stop wasting half of every attacking set turning a slow running forward back at the line. If that is the play the forward should be motoring.
I've said in the past KP is guilty of cludging up the attack as he hogs the playmaking but we went too far the other way tonight. I don't want KP getting the ball at first receiver, I want him getting it out the back off shape from Hastings or Pryce.
I want to see early shifts of the ball in sets from our 30m onwards not just one.two pass from the ruck to a forward to lumber in to the D.
Soo much of our game needs tweaking just a little to give us a much better chance at having something happen.
Ask questions of them and they can come up with the wrong answer.
And Brailey, I'm not seeing it. Slow, doesn't get away from DH at all, unimaginitive with ball in hand and nowhere near the enthusiasm and tenacity of Crossland.

That was atrocious. Braileys decision making this year has been awful. It used to be one of his strengths. Does Hastings play away from KP deliberately?

Talk of Best, Gags and Pongal playing Origin.
Great win but that will hurt us next week if true

Even with all of Pryces blunders, he is still offering more than Coggs,

Yeeeeewwww! Great away win! We made it very hard with lots of errors, but defended fantastically!
There was plenty of times we played away from ponga . First try i myself was blowing up, we had a decent play the ball and had ponga set with a 3 on 3 to the left and we shifted right.
Gagais 2nd try showed what pongas presence alone can do to a defensive line.
