I reckon Brisbane will start to open them up as they start to play some footy out of their own end as the clock starts to wind down and they start chasig points.
Such a poor kick by Milford. No reason to be so close to the goal line given it was just a set transition. Contest ending conversion coming up here...
Melbourne attacked like shit for most of that and still put 30 on. They will be great if they click in the big one but I'd be a bit concerned. That's two ordinary efforts in the finals.
Yeah but that's true of most any team. I'm talking more about pure execution and ball control. They were dropping balls you just don't see Melbourne drop. And their formation was far too lateral. I mean their completion rate at half time was like 55%. As Smith said in the press conference they were almost too enthusiastic and were playing frantically.
No way Boyd should've been playing last night. He did the same thing in Origin in 2015. I know it's for a GF but he was a liability. What does it do for your retreating forwards to see him half-jog the kick return?
Had every chance we needed to get over Melbourne. 3 halves on the field and they can't do something with an avalanche of possession and opportunity? FMD.
