Wests far too good for a valiant Souths yesterday who would have faired better if they could retain the ball - very fit and skilled Wests team this year.

Any other round the grounds?

What’s going wrong at Brothers?View attachment 21627
I am hearing that Brothers aren't getting the flow of players from Nudgee or Terrace like they once used to. The competition for talent exceeds South East Queensland boundaries, and players who once would have been considered a lock in at Brothers are going to other clubs, perhaps interstate or overseas, even. It's very un-Brothers-like indeed. I am not sure of the average age of their squad, but if it's stacked with 18-year-olds, not 19 or 20-year-olds, that may also be a contributing factor.

A few first year colts in the Brothers team. They will be better for it in the future but it's hurting them now.
