So did that guy flop like in socccer(football)? Is he really hurt or just selling the penalty?

Selling the penalty imo, looked down on in our game but ginger f*gs still do it, apparently.

Ginger f*gs!

Nice one on one by the milf!

That dumb ass for the Cowboys had like 3 guys open in the flat for the pitch and he tried to do it himself and just turned it over. What the hell you dumb ass. lol

Ouch Reed hurt gonna hurt the broncs .. :(

The difference is these guys are running non stop for 80 mins, you quickly lose any speed you have had.

The reason they don't just give it to the backs to run around the defense, is the way the defense is structured, it is very hard for a back to get round 12 guys they way the defense is schemed.

They need to set up plays to create lanes for the backs to take advantage of, which is very hard when there is no play clock

Generally the big strong forwards take a lot of defense guys to stop them, extra men in the tacke.

Extra men in the tackle, creates space and lanes for the quick men

Yeah I guess it's a fair question, qbs seem like massive pussies to me, all of them.

And he gets tackled harder than anyone else in the game whenever he kicks lol with no extra rules..

No one is sprinting flat out for 5 minutes, let alone the roughly 20 minutes that each team has the ball for in a half.

These guys really need to pitch the ball more. There are guys wide open and ready to run with it.

True if you're talking about the Cowboys team. They need to throw it around more. You're catching on Stoney.

Except Big Ben.

This is 2 QLD teams btw for Americans.. Most of these guys play for the same team in State of Origin which is the biggest rivalry in Rugby league.. So most these guys on both teams are mates off field.. They each have a load of respect for each other and although they will play hard you wont see too much dirty stuff.. And at end of the game they will all shake hands and embrace..

The rules have changed a lot over the years to protect them. It's so hard to find decent qbs and they were dropping like flies for a while there. They are just sitting ducks back there while Enormous monsters that run like the wind are trying to kill them. Mostly everybody doesn't like the rules that protect them so much, but the league is run by politically correct pansies that want the star qbs to be able to be out there playing. lol
