Souths....*Spoilers

[Russell]

so I take it there was more than one type of crucifixion yesterday, and if Jimmy Barnes was there half time belting out "on a needle she was cr…...." song there was 3 altogether

I'll ignore the analogy thanks.

Aren't they the pride of the league?

Credit to the Bulldogs, they played well, and totally out enthused the Rabbitohs.

As for Souths, knowing our luck, they will get their game together and beat wests -tigers when we next meet. Hope not, but stranger things have happened

Souff's have 4 Dummy half's ON THE FIELD…at the same time...what's doing...

Madge is a genius...

 

[Milky]

Napa is a beast

 

[Tigermama]

Rabbitohs lost…. :roll

 

[Masterton]

I like Keary, be he can't direct the team for 80 minutes by himself. Goes missing without Reynolds.

 

[Mickeyboy]

Hard for the halves to shine when the forwards don't lay the platform….sound familiar

 

[hugh1954]

learnt one lesson from the Souths ,Roosters game… Target Sam early sit him down quick but legalyl and the rest of the team take notice and go into their shells

Napa is a beast

He is. It helps though when you know you can shoulder charge without penalty, Napa pulled off one in the 1st tackle of the match from what I saw. He gets away with headhighs and shoulder charges every week,if he played for WT he would only be playing 2 or 3 games a season if the Simona verdict is anything to go by.
When you know you have the refs onside it makes the game much easier to dominate and intimidate the opposition.

agree - he leads with his shoulder in every tackle - he puts his arms up after he makes contact - should be penalized every tackle he makes.

Spot on mate. The initial impact is full shoulder and his arms attempt to wrap around way after contact. Effective technique if you are never getting pinged for it by the refs.
Pretty sure our players would not be afforded the same leeway.
