That our first half was abysmal, fark we were terrible, forcing passes on the 2nd and 3rd tackle, dumb penalties, poor ball control. We may have been dudded by some inept referees, button happy bunker and lay down sally tactics by the dragons. Our first half attrocities lost that game.

Why don't we also look at Latrell Mitchell gifting Gareth Widdop one the softest tries ever Hastings didn't cost us the game, we were playing panic catch up football at the time, the horrible first half cost us and also the refs blowing a couple of questionable penalties in the second half at key times.

I agree with what you have said. Just pointing out to the Pearce-hater that he "glossed over" one critical incident.

But it was a very bad read of numbers from our playmaker at a crucial time. I am sure he will learn from it.

Please do not turn this into a Pearce thread.
We lost that game in the 1st half, that had nothing to do with Pearce
I Agree Hastings did murder that try as did friend twice in the 1st half when we had extra numbers to the right but he went from dummy half

Just watched the first half again. It is very competitive and 2-0 up until the 20 minute mark. We have 3 chances to be first try scorer through Elliot, Jake and Latrell. Have to give credit to Saints for good line defence on all three. Unfortunately, we have 2 major stuff ups by Latrell and Ryan which gift them 12 points.

...... that we came back in that second half to complete our set, make good metres and force the opposition to kick under pressure in which I think the total number of 7 tackle restarts was 4 which is pretty high in one half of football...
Also that the kicking game of both Hastings and Matterson were key factors in the revival of our comeback and that our forwards did their job especially Moa and Napa to keep the pressure on the Drag Queens both defensively and offensively.
Mitch Aubusson and Body Cordner put their bodies (and heads) on the line to force errors and not to stay down looking for penalties but to get back up and hit harder.....Furthermore, I have to give it to Cordner coming back from major injury to put his body of the line for the team....
In which Ben Cummins and the Bunker did not appreciate that nor get a feel for that game yesterday as that last 3 minutes we should have been rightfully given that opportunity to fight back to win that game since we spent the previous 37 minutes making up for the stupid errors we made in the first half...
I've been saying it all along, WE NEED TO SHOW RESPECT TO BALL CONTROL AS IT HAS COSTS US GAMES THIS YEAR
