Lachie was terrible in that rep game. Still too raw.
Geez, you'd think that with Moses and Campbell they might have been able to kick a single goal. Seems that the rust sets in quickly after the season ends.
Trai Fuller should be playing FG. Jye Gray continues to improve. Best, Strange and...
I've never seen a GF where I so wanted both sides to lose.
Ezra Mam's car accident victims were peeved that his penalty was too light. It's sure inconsistent. If Spencer was suspended for 8 games for calling Mam a monkey, then hurting a family while driving drugged and without a licence should...
This season promised so much but it's delivered about the most boring and predictable GF possible (aside from Storm/Penrith). The two clubs that the NRL has always favoured and fostered are - surprise, surprise - at the top of the comp while grand old Sydney clubs collect in the bottom half of...
I think Storm will win, as long as the spine stays healthy. They have had easier games, with more stoppages, and they'll have an extra two days off to fix their bodies. Unlike Raiders and Panthers, the Storm should be too fit and lively towards the end of the game when the Broncos have exploited...
Dogs went best with Sexton and Burto as halves, with Burton putting his kicks up into the stratosphere.
You'd think that, with Buurto in centre, they'd get him to push up on the 5th to put up the high balls. Wasting one of their best weapons.
Usually the teams with a week off play the GF so Storm v Broncos looks most likely.
Preston makes Galvin look good, except when he's doing hospital passes or throwing the ball out.
Yep. No momentum coming into the semis. Against Broncs they made the classic Tiger mistake of closing shop when they get a good lead.
At the Greenhouse some were saying the season was a complete failure. Not sure what they'd call the WT's last four seasons 🤣
All Raiders had to do was rest their players against the Tigers and then use the Dolphins game to tune up for the finals. But they chose to get the minor premiership in front of their home crowd - and that was their last triumph of the season. From there, LLL.
Hynes v Fogerty ... who can keep their nerve?
Since Strange is out, Sharks look more likely. The Raiders should have rested players against the Tigers and used the last round to tune up. Sewing up the minor premiership might have cost them the big prize.
We probably all remember how Feldt won a game for the Cows against the Tigers in the last second of the game by running into one of our guys and then theatrically hurling himself onto the ground. Since the fakery worked for him then, I guess he's kept it in his trick bag.
