**** resting Maloney. If he's pissing off at the end of the year I'll drive him at 100km in 2nd gear.

Anyway, it was "the loss we had to have". I'm actually not that fussed.

Still pissed off about this loss. Last kick of game should of been out on the chest of Feki by Maloney. Poor defensive lapses costed us dearly.

The old brigade.. Gallen, Lewis and Heighington were our best by far.

Was our fault we lost this but I really struggle to watch any game with Melbourne in it. I don't understand how everyone except the officials can see the **** they do in the ruck. The amount of crap they were doing last night, particularly Smith and Chambers, makes the game so slow an unattractive to watch.

Suppose we were due to lose a close game. We have snuck home late a few times this year late . It eventually catches up with you when you play so many tight games. Suppose the manner in which we lost is the most disappointing thing. Slow starts etc

When the ball fell of the tee for Smith and he put it back on then kicked it about 2 or 3 metres, was time on or off?

Is anyone at home that can confirm?

That would have been a magic finish.

Agree on the old blokes. Bukuya and Leutele didn't let anyone down either. Very tough night for Brailey. Caught out for 3 tries.

He was putting up bombs for the ball boys before the game last night for quite a while, he didn't seem to be in too much discomfort.
Don't know if I heard him correctly as I was at the pub but interview with Hooper on Fox I thought he said he still had about 4 weeks to go

Because he kicked it and it didn't go 10 metres?

Just watched it, time was still on.

I think the ball is dead the minute it falls off the tee. Not sure if that is right or not.
What brave ref though is going to ping Smith for that?

I don't think there is a rule that the ball has to be kicked off the tee?
