2022 RLWC

Played a better game with reserve graders than Brooks has with first graders for close to a decade.

Says it all really.

(Forward pack)

No glory in Union these days
Young blokes these days - It's all about how it looks....

I'd be shocked if Union have any major coups until they sort union out
It's limping along at the moment....
 
backs are still fairies in union in league you have second rowers running out wide like when chrichton owned Adam
Obviously you havent seen some of the rugby players these days. If AD was playing union he wouldn't be playing club footy, he would be playing rep games. As an inside back, AD would have to make tackles against players like Eben Etzebeth and a lot of players like him running at the edges.

extra 2 players on the field also help in the 15 man game
 
Good to hear AD performed well. He has all the talent in the world tbh but lacks consistency. Fades in and out of games way too much. NRL isn't about one good performance like WC or Finals, it's about 20 great performances back to back.
 
The Aussie ref's are so bad hey.

How good do the British fields/ stadiums look on TV also.

Really showcasing a good product, until Klein and Atkins turn up.

Really entertaining game this morning.
Took the NZ lads a while to wake up but when they did, it played out how everyone would expect.

NZ, on paper... easy favourites.
( to win the comp)
Cedars had a few nice touches.
Yep, that Doughy bloke for the Cedars is a goer. Not sure why he got sent off, though maybe Farah forced it! 🤪
 
I know it must annoy you demps but you can't ever take that halfback of the year away from him
I will be astounded if Adam ever wins a Dally m 6 of the year
But was he really?
Starred in Origin?
The same year Pearce, Adam Reynolds, Cleary, DCE, Cronk and others were running around.
Yeah…. nah.
 
He really won it is in the record books
He also had a good coach that helped too
Let’s be honest for once.
He’s not even close to being as good as any of the other halves I named.
Apart from the fact most of the others were in stronger teams that had other great players taking Dally M points some were also injured for long stints.
Nowhere near close to being the real halfback of the year in anyones eyes.

I get a real giggle out this old argument....
He was far and away our best player that year
(As voted by the Club - And at by piers at Dally M level)
Now, You blokes can argue black and blue that he wasn't - But it's clear he was...
Pure hatred and time has obviously clouded your judgement.

If a player is so sub standard, and that you quite clearly don't rate
- Is the best player in the team...
What do you think of the other 30?
Surely they're fodder as well - No?
- I mean, If you rate Brooks as a 4/10 (FAS) and he's the best player at the club that year as seen by all and sundry....

How could you possibly blame your 4/10 for not leading all the 3/10's (At best) to the finals?
You can't!! The math don't work...

Oh, Yeah it does - His name is Luke Brooks.

Always going to be 2 different viewpoints.
My beef is the money v results.
Not how you conduct successful business
