What a try! Faalogo looked like he was channeling Reece Walsh

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

He has some pace and footwork that’s for sure. The storm have some great young players coming through.

Sam says "I'm the real Walker!" to Cody.

Early try and some good defence by the Broncs

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Storm passing is real suspect. Half of the dummy half passes look forward.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Game, blouses.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Bye bye souths 😘

Warriors can jump to 3rd with a win over the Dolphins

Cowboys can seal a finals spot with a win over the Panthers. But a Panthers win gets them the minor premiership and the Roosters a spot in the finals.

Go Panthers!*

*Support for Panthers available for one day only

Actually, I'd like Cowboys to win today, and Raiders to lose on Sunday....

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Well this games over already. Absolute worst case scenario for me :( - Broncos lose minor premiership to the panthers, Cowboys miss the finals, and Broncos have to play Storm next week.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

There was a whiff of hope when they got it to 26-12.

Sorry your weekend has been disappointing. Hopefully next weekend is much better!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Faalogo gonna remember that tackle ....

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Well that should have been an offside penalty to Brisbane surely? Seemed to touch one storm player then forward to the guy that caught it.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Honestly didn’t think I’d ever see Papenhyuzen scoring a try again so can’t be too angry at that.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Great run Sailor. And 10 in the bin hahhaha

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

We need 2 tries in this 10 minutes imo. Points are flowing so need to get a buffer while we have the advantage.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Shouldn't have taken the penalty goal...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Nope, never take a penalty goal during a sin bin unless it’s right at the end. Wastes so much time and field position.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Meh, 3 guys shoulda stopped Smith

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Yeah, nah, what? TRY!

Roosters better with Sam Walker. Great pass.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Walker doing all the kicking and most of the distribution. Roosters saving Keary

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Halftime 🐓 10-6 🐇

Suaalii kicking looks off. Hooking it like Thurston now. When he was kicking well, he had a higher, straighter trajectory.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Ah damn, first we blew a try down the other side and now we blow another and gift the storm one in doing so. Great intercept though.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

More errors in the first 7 minutes of the 2nd half. Both coaches told them to play some footy lol

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Did the Raiders just drop their bundle?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Yep, that is a send off. Glad little fella is OK.

That's probably gonna do it. Sharkies should run away from here.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Next set, Sharks score lol

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Are the Chooks better without JWH? Find out tonight!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

See you next week Sharkies. Hope the Roosters were taking some notes on the first half.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Broncs looked better,but Storm leading. C'mon Broncs!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Dammit....Faalogo again , and Papi kicking them from the sidelines

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Too good storm.

Walters lost us this game. Resting everyone was pathetic. Running with 3 hookers was ridiculous.

2 huge errors by sailor cost us dearly but can’t blame him. Walsh should have been there.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I’m going to be livid if we lose the minor premiership because they wanted to rest players when if we win next week they get a rest anyway. Complete disrespect for the minor premiership.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Why? The minor premiership is meaningless. Having fresh players who have rested and recovered is more important, IMO.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

It’s not meaningless. It’s recognition for the team that was the best over the season, like the spoon is for the worst. Considering that we won the spoon a few years ago, winning a minor premiership would be an amazing achievement. There’s also a large cash reward.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Cursed Storm.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Go Easts! Need some vintage Teddy.

Can't help but think that Radley is gonna do something stupid. He's overdue, and no JWH to take the focus off him...

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

No Toupou. That's gonna hurt. He makes heaps of the toughest metres out of the 22

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Lucky try. Sometimes it's better to be lucky than good.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Oof Taffe accidentally KOd

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Murray too easy

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Keary playmakes, Teddy scores 😀 👍

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Souths score on their left side.

Cook to Walker is deadly

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Bunnies with all the momentum...

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Collins is a beast. What a motor for a mobile big man.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Smith you beauty! Great fend.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Terrell May played well.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Sharks v Raiders has some impact today.

If my brain is working correctly, in the first week of the finals:

  • if the Sharks win, Knights v Raiders, Sharks v Roosters
  • if the Raiders win, Knights v Roosters, Raiders v Sharks (again, lol, but Raiders at home)
[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Sharks 4 - 6 Raiders

Both teams playing pretty well, though maybe a bit too safe. Both scared of losing.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Rapana is a heart attack waiting to happen. And it doesn't matter if you are a Raiders supporter or supporting the other team lol
