Can we extend Timoko's contract for another year?

Haha, Even Hopoate scores that.

I don’t think he does. I think the defender gets across to him…
He wasn't even close.

Very good support play there from Young. Good footy nous. That’s more like it!

Mokes has it in him to be our best centre since Meninga. Absolute weapon.

I’ve never seen Hopoate cover more than 10m on a football field without the defence laying hands on him. So there’s no way he’s taking that close to 20 out and burning the cover defence

Yes good point. Channel the effort into the footy rather than the other stuff, and get rewarded. Very impressed

Not often you agree with Blocker, but he's right. You shouldn't get those ones wrong. How is that possibly missed as ball touching the line

Surely you can’t be touching the player?!

Call that one square for the touchline - but surely that’s not allowed for a strip…

Penalty for the reach around. That kind of thing doesn’t belong on the field.
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.

Yup started thinking the game was done and dusted. Wouldn't be surprised if we leak a couple tries now.

Schiller's defence is a bigger worry than him dropping the odd ball.
