Have you ever watched a Cummins-Roosters match and gone "gee we got the rub of the green today!".
No, me neither.
That slither of toe jam undoubtedly has an axe to grind against the Roosters.
I'll never forget that epic stitch up vs Many in 2014. What was the count that night, 11-2? And at our home ground!
I'm pretty sure the club knows it too.

Cordner was outstanding & Friend wasnt far behind.
Mickie Gordon has been a very good buy for the club.
Aubusson, Ferguson & Manu were all fantastic. Manu missed that tackle on Moga but other than that he was great.
Keary & Watson were quiet.
Yes Cordner is just growing in stature...I'm thinking that he will take over from Smith as Australian captain...as for Watson,,,he is being given the chance and he's still not there. RL9's is a totally different game. Was looking forward to seeing Cornish...Might come in for the souths game before SOO3

Will give him a few of the boys on that right edge the benefit of the doubt.

There was only one off side penalty last night given to the broncos, and only one in the match last week against raiders, which considering we got 7 penalties in a row, it was strange that not one of them was for offside.
But in saying that, offside penalties seem very rare, so the refs seem to let a lot of them go these days.

I was at my Mothers Birthday so didnt see the full game at the time saw the last 5 of the 1st half and the last 5 of the 2nd half. I have now watched the full replay. Top game of footy and I was on the end of my seat even knowing the result
Firstly the refereeing wasnt as bad as many here are saying. Many of ther Broncos penalties were not awarded by Cummins to start with. Although I do think he tried to help them back intot he game and the look on his face after awrding the try to Cordner was of someone who was mightily pissed off aboiut it.
Secondly I thought Connor Watson started to really bring himself into the game in the 2nd half Amazing what a bit of game time can do Way to many on here neglected his lack of game time whe bagging him last week. Hopefully he is picked to play Souths and Cornish whom if it is the same Cornish that played for our 20s side 2 and 3 seasons ago them I want him nowhere near 1st grade. One of the wqorst halves I had ever seen in years of watching 20s football and no coincdence he leaves due to age and plays for Wyong then we win the 20s. I want him nowhere near 1st grade at this club.
Thirdly That was a vital two points and an excellent win by the boys.
Fourthly From a spectator point of view I really enjoyed seeng Benji give Tau Tau some early ball in the 2nd half and they really began to work up a good combination together evidenced by the two tries they were jointly responsible for late in the game. Im sure from a personal point of view Tau would prefer to play outside of Benji rather than Milford as Benji wiuld continue to give him that good early ball, where those who have seen Tau play know how dangerous he is with it when given good clean early ball like Benji did in the 2nd half the other night. Ive always and will always have a soft spot for Tau Tau as he gave me so much enjoyment watching him play for us, and when he scored there was that weird sense in me that I was happy for him even though the game was then on the line with the goal kick.
Finally Our retreating defence off the final set of 6 was a delight to watch in that we kept our defensive shape despite being under enormous pressure.Last edited by Andrew Walker; 06-05-2017, 03:59 PM.When you trust your television

On Watson, I still see it as partly trents fault for not giving him game time, sits on the bench for 70min or sometimes 80, which means he doesn't even get game time for the roos. Poor player management to the extreme.
