To me, the game was lost twice. Once in the first 20 minutes, when the Cowboys fell asleep, defensively, and twice when, in the second half, S B Williams lost the ball cold, was given a penalty, from the play after the kick, took the ball from a forward pass, went over the line, lost control, was deemed not to, result from the play the ball , one or two tackles later, field goal. However, if the Cowboys hadn't had to defend so much after their slow start , they may have had the energy to push on in the second half. Defence up the middle was lacking at critical moments for the Cowboys, Tariq Sims was sorely missed. If only that rush of blood in the last game when he made that shoulder charge...... The best come back by a team in finals history, let down by a lack of concentration in the first 20 minutes. That's rugby league. Bob
As a neutral supporter (of the defunct Storm) for this game, I was disappointed that the Cowboys lost. But what a game. I really feel for the Cowboys and particularly JT and Matt Scott. The conspiracy theory is alive and well. The Cowboys need to take conspiracy out of the equation. And not allow the opposition to take a thirty point lead.
Its hard not to feel that nswrl arnt conspiring against us when it happens year after year that we lose to a bad call.

two critical mistakes made by Thurston. Not kicking for goal just before half time, not looking to his right when he made the break in the second half, & picking up Morgan. The Cowboys were masters of their own destiny, and it wasn't to be. But what a come back, I've never seen one like it. Bob
