I could, and very reasonably, focus on the amateur referee (don't start northernbloke) and the pointless twits running up each touchline. I could equally focus on the games turning point, but I didn't see it so reserve judgement. What I did see, and I see it every week is a fully committed Broncos team, who are undersized and underskilled to compete at this level. The tactics are right for this team but are merely glossing over the fact that it wont wash and we need plans B C and D. It appeared that the rare time we had an offensive position we cocked up, and the notion that the first play after penalty we spread to the wing and the winger is bundled in to touch sums it up. Picking on under performing individuals isn't the answer. Plans B C and D require different personnel. I am loving being in SL and I am sure David is but if he is serious he needs to open the wallet to retain this heady height. It's not too late. By the same token, a thoroughly competitive Championship with the same squad, would likely mean a yo yo back in 2021.
Quote: northernbloke "Surprised it’s not the refs fault two idiots came running on the pitch as well.
Anyone see what happened to them by the way when the stewards eventually got hold of the idiots?'"
They were marched out on the ground just in front of me and told to go home. At least they run forward and broke the Cats line!
It’s me again! Unfortunately that is not the rule, the game is not stopped mid flow! Even when the doctor comes on the field it’s the next break in play not mid flow.
There was no delay in medical staff getting to the injured player.
That’s the pro game protocol, play stops at next tackle or breakdown in play after an obvious head injury, if it’s not head and player is not in area where play is likely to go to, unless doc comes on it’s play on. It’s not the ref call to decide the severity of the injury.
