Pressure now mounting on the coach

Where is that kid from Redcliffe? Nikorima is not a seven.

He's been playing better than Milford in my opinion. Milford has mostly looked threatening in broken play. At least Nikorima looks like he has the ability to create something against a defensive line.

Apart from attacking ineptitude, the defence is crap and doesn't appear to have much ticker. The way they let in that try at the death was horrendous.

The Broncs were wrong to ever try and turn him into a half that young.either way it's too late to turn back now. I watched some footage of him in the #1 playing for Canberra yesterday, I forgot how good he was. That was on both Hook and Bennett.

1. Niko
6. Boyd
7. Milf
9. Anyone but Macca. At this stage Id be happy if they dragged Barry bloody Berrigan out of retirement and threw him in there to hooker.

Prior to the season, the halves were my only real concern but I thought Siebold would get them going. So far, no good.

Funnily enough, Milf's best season in the 6 was his first in 2015 but that coincided with Ben Hunt's best year as a 7. The two of them carved up that year and it looked like we had our halves set. Then Hunt spilled the lollies in the GF and it all seemed to go south from there.

Yep Locky and Zeal
End of a remarkable/game changing/dynamic/physical/explosive/brute of a player's career.
There is going to be a week or more of mourning for what has been an amazing ride for one of the true greats of the game

Brilliant highlights package mate
Any sporting person with blood in his or her veins would appreciate what a
remarkable athlete this man has been in a tough sport.

Just used to steamroll guys trying to defend . Usually sent them flying backwards

He is the real deal. Ray Guy finalist 3 years running.

Got the Aussie Rules style with extras. Came through Prokick (Nathan Chapman) in Aus that is taking over the league.

Does kick offs. Can tackle. Returners are virtually nullified.

Can tuck and run too. Runs a 4.6 at 220lbs. Should be a beast.
