    High completion rates are overrated for that exact reason.

    When the attacking side is focused on not making errors it naturally takes away from their willingness to chance their hand in an effort to create points.

    Pretty sure the Bulldogs have the best if not one of the best completion rates of the past two seasons.

    lol Matty Moylan at lock.

    What a waste.

    Rare that Melbourne are made to look like this at home. I don't even think they're playing all that poorly but Canberra look really good.

    Williams looks an excellent recruit, though it's still early days.

    We're definitely coming 9th again.

    Liking Reece Robson from what I saw last night.

    It's almost like the rucks are too quick for the Storm and they just don't have time to set up their structured plays.

    George Williams looked very good.

    Very slick left to right pass for a right hander.

    Yeah, Williams has been impressive.
    Tapane actually making efforts too.

    Yeah I am very impressed with how Canberra seem to be able to break the meme of "English playmakers underperforming". First Hodgson and Williams looks a lot better (in his admittedly limited appearances) than any other Pommy back that has come here in my lifetime.

    They do have similar climates.

    Long way to go for Williams to be proven I’ve been very sceptical of that signing. Though it looks like these rule changes will suit him to a tee and Bateman coming back in will make those eyes up Attacking plays even more dangerous.
     
  12. Julian BJ Taylor

    It was weird. I genuinely thought their starting forwards dominated Canberra’s in general play. Canberra seemed a lot more mobile in clearing the ruck and winning ruck penalties (that’s been an ace for a while now with Croker, Wighton and Rapana in particular)

    This was one of his better games.

    The smart move is to play TPJ/Fifita edges and Glenn at centre.

    Part of why I'm digging the change. Stops them being able to murder the ruck like they often do.

    Roosters fighting Radley's charge, hope they succeed Tbh, will set a precedent that those tackles are acceptable.
     
  16. Boobidy BJ Gemmell

    Storm were always going to struggle with this change. Makes me like it even more.

    Deadset one of the worst penatilies I’ve ever seen. Cummins and bunker are worthless.
     
  18. Magic AJ Parker

    lol why the fuck is there a ground announcer?

    Just announced to everyone in attendance that we're headed to golden point...
