A second try for Warbrick, after some chaotic improvised play over the other side of the field.

[Graham]

Fab try there as a tired Broncos side are stretched to busting.

Hughes cross field kick collected by Warbrick. Try. 
22-10

Broncos were well in this but made too many mistakes under pressure.

Storm taken advantage of Broncos binmen.

Ill feeling a fair few times in this contest.

[Graham]

Flegler involved in problems

Flegler binned. 
Why try given?

Flegler held defender and try scoer ran through gap made???

Broncos trying everything at the end. Left it too late.

[THE RED ROOSTER]

They might not be the Melbourne of old but any team with Cameron Munster, Jahrome Hughes, Harry Grant and Nick Meaney will always have apunchers chance against anybody. Especially down in chilly Victoria.

I don’t think the Broncos will be to downhearted looking at the big picture . A lot went against them there and they were still right in it until the final minutes. I think they’ll be confident they have this Storm teams number if they meet down the line

I thought Broncos were well below the form that got them to the top of the table. They struggled under the high ball. They had some moments of brilliance but their shape and discipline lacked consistency. Of course the binnings and injury to Adam Reynolds played a part.

Wow, bunnies only needed a minute of having an extra men to beat broncos. Storm needed 20 mins. The Carrigan yellow card was scandalous.

 

No worries for broncos….unlucky even though they were without their playmaker as well for most of the game.

Bulldogs v Warriors, aka Battle of the Big Improvers.

CBY 0:6 WAR, with 15 minutes left in the first half.

[Futtocks]

The Warriors double their lead, as Fonua-Blake runs onto a well-timed Dylan Walker pass to finish off a 7-tackle set full of big metres.

[Futtocks]

Pompey makes a break, and two tackles later, DWZ takes a neat cross-field kick from Shaun Johnson to score.

CBY 0:18 WAR

[Futtocks]

The very promising young half Ronald Volkman gets his first NRL try, chasing his own grubber. This after Canterbury were denied their own 4-pointer for stripping the ball.

6:24

The Panthers are doing to the Roosters pretty much what those two actual animals would do in a fight.

The Roosters have stemmed the tide in the second half, but when Yeo flukes a cross-field kick for a To'o try, it isn't going to be their day.

Still, a try for Corey Allan means they won't be nilled.
