\u201cA few errors there, but that\u2019s footy and I said to the boys, you\u2019ve got to take the good with the bad and what you\u2019ve got to do is put yourself back together and get ready to go again next week. It\u2019s a long year.\u201d <\/p>\n
However, Marshall couldn\u2019t hide his disappointment at letting a victory slip, but paid tribute to the Broncos. <\/p>\n
\u201cObviously disappointed to lose, we\u2019ve been on the other end of a close score line like that, but no excuses,\u201d Marshall said. <\/p>\n
\u201cCredit to Brisbane, obviously, undemanded under strength, and they played a solid game and pipped us there at the end. <\/p>\n
\u201cI thought we did some good things today, but I thought we put ourselves in a position to win it too and at the end, but it didn\u2019t go away. <\/p>\n
Bennett full of praise after Bunnies win | 03:48<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s credit to them, because we had them making a lot of tackles with possession and at the back end of the game, you probably try and get those, but they hung on, fought their way back and were good enough to get us at the end there.\u201d <\/p>\n
However, Marshall couldn\u2019t cop suggestions the Broncos were a class below due to their injuries and backed most of his side\u2019s performance. <\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s not all wrong, people forget they\u2019re still the premiers,\u201d Marshall said. <\/p>\n
\u201cThey still have got players there and I can name them individually, like Adam Reynolds, Ezra Mann, Kotoni Staggs, that are world-class, Payne Haas at the start. <\/p>\n
\u201cSo it\u2019s not like they had no one in their team. They\u2019re still a great team who won the comp last year, so we thought we had enough to win tonight and we did, and we just couldn\u2019t get it done.\u201d <\/p>\n
Tigers skipper Api Koroisau backed his coach up on the direction the team is heading. <\/p>\n
\u201cThere\u2019s nothing to change,\u201d Koroisau said, <\/p>\n
\u201cThere\u2019s moments and Brisbane just took the opportunities that\u2019s all.\u201d <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Benji Marshall said the media can stop over-hyping his team now that they lost a game they could…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":615161,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[568],"tags":[18743,64,63,9421,4428,23855,298578,18664,298580,21384,133420,4746,298575,298577,298576,761,762,158,81214,13390,85,298579,177174,298582,298581,4515],"class_list":{"0":"post-615160","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-nrl","8":"tag-adam-reynolds","9":"tag-au","10":"tag-australia","11":"tag-benji-marshall","12":"tag-brisbane-broncos","13":"tag-brutal-loss","14":"tag-close-score-line","15":"tag-game-plan","16":"tag-game-slip","17":"tag-jock-madden","18":"tag-learning-curve","19":"tag-mark-st-john","20":"tag-marshall-press-conference","21":"tag-media-thing","22":"tag-missed-chances","23":"tag-national-rugby-league","24":"tag-nationalrugbyleague","25":"tag-nrl","26":"tag-patrick-herbert","27":"tag-payne-haas","28":"tag-sports","29":"tag-star-facing","30":"tag-superstar-prop","31":"tag-tigers-skipper","32":"tag-victory-slip","33":"tag-wests-tigers"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/615160","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=615160"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/615160\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/615161"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=615160"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=615160"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=615160"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
