Can I say this: my players came back to me after the touch judges checked their studs before the game saying they had been told the bloke playing the ball could not interfere with a defender. |
Half-time came at a good time for us. We tidied a couple of things up and completed our sets and they made a couple of silly errors. |
He was doubtful through the week, the medical staff didn't think he would play and he kept constantly convincing me he was going to play. |
He was open-mouthed when Tallis walked up to him and started talking to him. |
He's a pretty tough kid and he'll do what he's asked to do. He's out there doing a bit to the opposition. |
I can see him being a leader of men, in a smaller role to start with but it could be anything as well. |
I don't have any intentions of leaving and it's just good now the board have opened up negotiations. |
I fully understand where he's coming from, he's probably only got so many games left in him and wants to show a fair bit of loyalty to the club that's been very good to him over the years. |
I haven't heard anything formal, but if Ben does quit rep football it will be a blow because he has been such a tremendous player for NSW and Australia. |

I think he did a pretty good job in the end that bloke. They were pretty tough circumstances. |
I thought they played quite well that day. They beat the Tigers convincingly at Manly so if they can get back to that form they're going to be dangerous. They're a good football side and they are probably making a few adjustments to their team but they'll be fine. |
It is a strong line-up. If they all play to their best ability, Queensland will certainly be difficult to beat. |
It lived up to expectations, I think. |
It's a difficult one, but I suppose if we're ever going to we're in good form to do that. |
