Anyway the defence on our own line was decent and we hung in there. Pretty impressed that we got as close as we did tbqh.

I don't know about that
You give that pressure kick to someone else when they have been kicking for two games; although they would have been practising, I wouldn't put that pressure on them

who would have kicked it otherwise?

Anyone. If they miss well they only missed one and don’t cost us the game because they were ****house

Our team has loads of talent.. I might be wrong but I reckon we just need a little bit more experience in the coaching staff to take that group of players to that next level we want and then to teach them what it takes to be consistent there

If they get a kick to level the score put on them and they miss it then they miss it and it is just as bad a miss as it was when Chad missed it. There's no miss that doesn't hurt just because it wasn't Chad if anything we'd all be blaming Chad for handing it over for someone else to miss.

How did Moylan go?

Hard to say until Burgess does his full team review but for me he looked slick in attack at times and I did not see him do enough of the less glorified work of the halves. Missed a heap of tackles and kicked only once.

We need him to do more to take some of the pressure off Chad because we all saw how Chad went when the pressure was on.

Did he get into space at all? Interest to see if he has any pace in the open

Moylan and Townsend are just road blocks. Won't miss them when they are gone.

Big Sexy has kicked for us - Chad's confidence was shot might have been worth giving someone else a shot. was going to be a miracle kick either way in those conditions and with all that pressure and not slotting the previous ones

Moylan, Kennedy, Ronnie, Tracey, Horoti (needed sub). we had options but it's easy in hindsight, hard to be too critical off sticking with your primary goal kicker and hoping he comes good but end of the day I still will be cause Chad missed 2 kickable goals earlier. not in front and a little tricky but that's why you extend your premiership half back right? to nail the clutch moments and execute under pressure?
