LIVE GAME Rd 10 NRL Discussion *spoilers*

Geez, the NRL has become a meat grinder. Tigers aren't the only ones being decimated.

The more you speed up the game, the more the toll on the body, staying healthy makes all the difference in the modern game.

The "6 again" is the biggest blight on our game,it makes the game too fast and fatigues ALL teams too quickly if they don't have the ball.An unfriendly ref can keep your hands off the ball for extended periods and it dosen't show up in the penalty statistics.In an era of 10 meter football it is a match winner.

It can be a vicious cycle...the.attack gets multiple sets, the defense starts to fatigue...errors creep in,more defnse required...lopsided possesion and fielf position ensues...the momentum is hard to halt
Broncos spent 30 minutes in the 2nd half without seeing Manlys red zone.
Nrl love it big scores lots of tries.

PVL only cares about the ratings and the next broadcasting rights. I doubt he hardly watches a game. The results of games now is basically controlled by the ref and bunker. They have invented a game that has no resemblance of the game played a few years ago. Okay we see some amazing attacking raids, but usually on the back of a lopsided time in possession. Blow outs are the norm, injuries are the norm, horrendous refereeing is the norm. Love to get the game back to where it was

Said he's had the Tigers game marked in his calenders for a while.

We didn't offer him a contract.
Neither did the dragons or the dogs.

Reckons he's up for it today.
Might’ve just put a target on his back.

What's a bigger blight is the inconsistency.
One game it's 20-30 six agains. (Although as you say we don't know as there's no stats) Then next game is one or two. It changes the fabric of the game. How would you coach for that?
