Some blokes just don't learn.

Francis Molo, contracted to Brisbane was the bloke who shoulder charged a Sunshine Coast player last year and he eventually died.

Last week playing for Norths Brisbane against the Sunny Coast he again shoulder charged two players within 5 minutes, the second led to an all in brawl during which Sunny Coast players called him a murderer.

It would seem that his defensive technique is flawed. I don't want to see the game go 'soft' either but grub tactics that are designed to deliberately injure the opposition need to be stamped out. The same goes for players being taken on 'suspicion' or off the ball when they are defenseless. Another thing that has crept back in but is never penalised is kick chasers being run off the ball.

The consistency of the NRL's match review committee is appalling. Same offence, some players charged and some not. This is why we have grading to differentiate the severity and ultimate penalty.

Poor Jarrod Wallace signs with the Titans on a 3 year deal. I really liked him playing with the Broncos, K.

Significant pay rise from what I understand. Brisbane don't lose to many juniors, interesting to see if he stays in first grade

Hampton to Cowboys, 3 year deal

Like Fox Sports News. For Corey Norman suspension they are saying the "NRL keeping their integrity".

Given the NRL's tough stance on players using drugs (making Johns an immortal) didn't realise they had any integrity to keep.

The nrl don't own the rights to the Immortals. It's a magazine gimmick.

Men of League and NRL need to get in to bed together and do a hall of fame / museum.

Being a fan of Josh i also agree that he should not have done that with the swinging arm. This is so frustrating to watch as the Broncos are playing the worst style of football i have seen them play in years? Nothing against the Panthers but my Bronx are self destructing? K

Brendan_B · Jul 22, 2016

Yep they are poor tonight, particularly in attack. No patience!

Penrith haven't been awesome but have taken their chances and controlled the game well

Parrapaul · Jul 22, 2016

With all their good young talent I can see Penrith winning a premiership in the next 3 years

Certainly lots to like about them when they are on. Maybe need a good number 9 to get them to that next level

Their defense is where they need to improve another 30+ scored against them. If they can't stop leaking points they won't win.

Their defense late last season early this season was good and it provided their attack with opportunities to score points but for the past few months they have been pathetic.

Milford looked like he could have gone to sleep on the middle of the field.

Very strange

Jaames · Jul 22, 2016

Milford has been asleep for the second half of the season!

You are right, can't win games conceding 30 + but if you take into account Penrith's first try was against the run of the play, the second was a 50/50 that went their way and the Merrin try was in the last minute when the game was done and dusted.

Their attack was terrible. No energy, loads of unforced errors, no second phase, looked very slow and disjointed. Aside from the Boyd try which was more due to a bad missed tackle Brisbane didn't look like scoring or making a break.
