    NRL Rd 7 2024 - General Non-Warriors Thread

    I'll go a day early again as I've got a big day at work tomorrow. The big news this week is Penrith's Fisher-Harris moving back to NZ next year. The Panthers have lost some big stars that's for sure. But you know what? If they keep their coach and those solid players - Cleary, Leota, Yeo, To'o...

    NRL Rd 6 2024 - General Non-Warriors Thread

    I'm getting in a day early this week as I'm off to the Illawarra tomorrow for the first time ever. I can't believe I've never ventured down to Steelers' country. Apparently, it's lovely. I hope I bump into Rod Wishart. There seems to be serious disparities at the NRL Judiciary. This shouldn't...

    NRL Rd 5 2024 - General Non-Warriors Thread

    A fifth of the way into the season and already squad depth is an issue at many clubs. There's quite a few injuries going around. Metcalf at the Warriors worries me in the sense that last year, exposed in the final against Brisbane, we lacked pace in the backs. Metcalf was a bit of a point of...

    NRL Rd 4 2024 - General Non-Warriors Thread

    Easter is here, with all its biblical overtones, and the like, playing out in a round of footy. But the only one I'm really concerned about is who 'gets the chocolates' at Mt Smart on Sunday. Tonight, it's the clash of the titans (yes, I know that's Greek mythology) at Emporer Nick's flash new...

    NRL Rd 3 2024 - General Non-Warriors Thread

    Three weeks in and the chickens are coming home to roost somewhat. What team wants to start the season zero from three? There's a few anxious clubs out there. Tonight, I want to be at Penrith just to hear the sledging! The big-shot Broncos are in town and last year's GF is still pretty raw. A...

    NRL Rd 2 2024 - General Non-Warriors Thread

    Round two, this feels more like it. No razzmatazz, no betting moguls, no giant egos in Vegas, just NRL footy, and even some wet weather in Sydney to boot. Tonight, the Broncos are back with their cushy home game to open the round. It's Souths coming to town, it's Reece and Latrell, what's not...

    NRL Rd 1 2024 - General Non-Warriors Thread

    It's past midnight and summer is officially done! You know what that means? All eyes on the Basin Reserve... ...seriously though, we're a couple of sleeps from Seattle, I mean, Las Vegas, and the start of season 2024. 'Vegas? What will it be next year? Macau? To attract the gambling potential...

    NRL Finals 2023

    It's on! We're there!! Friday: Brisbane v Melbourne (7:50pm) Saturday: Penrith v Warriors (4:05pm) Saturday: Cronulla v Roosters (7:50pm) Sunday: Newcastle v Raiders (4pm) We should be safely tucked up in bed, like the Bulldogs, Titans, Eels, et al, but instead we're up late, wandering around...

    NRL Rd 27 2023 - General Non-Warriors Thread

    So here we are, near the end, of the season we never want to end. 'We' meaning Warriors fans, of course. Let's start with the bye, my deep Parra mole met me in our usual spot this week (my workplace) and came to 'wish me luck for the finals'! What a turnaround! I've spent the last few years...

    NRL Rd 26 2023 - General Non-Warriors Thread

    Trouble at Souths! We really needed them on the field this week, to add to the off-field chatter. Whoever meets them in the final week might be in a spot of bother, I reckon. Thursday, we have the Panthers and Parra. They really did mess with the Eels' minds didn't they? Penrith, I mean and...

    NRL Rd 25 2023 - General Non-Warriors Thread

    It's been Matilda Mania this week but I've been going for Spain ever since I heard they'd set up camp in the great city of Palmerston North! Now look, the mighty Manawatu has cast its spell, they're in the final. Back to league, tonight we have the game of the round, NQ v Cronulla. Payten's...

    NRL Rd 24 2023 - General Non-Warriors Thread

    Someone should pass a law, that this season should never end. It's just so good! Thursday night kicks it all off again with a Lodge-less (I can probably print his name in full size now) Manly hosting Penrith in what might be a last dance at Brookie. That's tough for Manly but they have the...

    NRL Rd 23 2023 - General Non-Warriors Thread

    Could this be the round of the year? There's so many ponderables. Firstly, tomorrow night, the Roosters have one last dance, but Manly can't sit down either. Friday, the GC is the place to be! The Warriors are in town, both sets of fans are ready for what could be quite a show. Then it's the...

    NRL Rd 22 2023 - General Non-Warriors Thread

    This round there'll be covered logos on the players' jerseys, as the 'pay dispute escalates'. Is there strike action down the road? Tonight, it's all glamour in Brisbane, Broncos v Roosters. Walsh v Tedesco, we know who thinks he's number one! Friday, the Tigers host fellow strugglers, Souths...

    NRL Rd 21 2023 - General Non-Warriors Thread

    Drama in Downtown Auckland to kick-off the round, but that affects the FIFA Women's WC today more than the Warriors tomorrow. Just on the World Cup, it'll distract from every game this weekend bar one, the one at Mt Smart! Such is the vibe around the Warriors right now. Tonight, like two kids...

    NRL Rd 20 2023 - General Non-Warriors Thread

    Another Origin done and dusted, now we're back to the club stuff and, hopefully, a fitting climax to a great season so far. Friday sees the Knights - who still have finals hopes - take on Wests, who are one of three/four teams that are out of contention. Saturday has another no-hoper...

    NRL Rd 19 2023 - General Non-Warriors Thread

    Our final Origin-affected round for the year. By chance all three teams that got pulvarised last week are back for more! Tonight, Wests 'take on' Cronulla at the Parra stadium. Is this the last dance, of a long and distinguished first grade coacning career, for Sheens? The Sheens/Marshall-thing...

    NRL Rd 18 2023 - General Non-Warriors Thread

    I'm feeling happier with the Walsh ban than I probably should! I know I'm not alone here either. Surrounding the referee like that reminds me of soccer at its worst. It's deeply unpleasant. Tonight, surely the Sharks will add to St George's misery? Although, perhaps no Hunt will make the...

    NRL Rd 17 2023 - General Non-Warriors Thread

    After the headbutts, send-offs and inevitable Queensland win last night we're back into club footy. Friday, and it's important, St George host 'the Wahs' (sorry, we're discussing that in other threads and I'll only use it once, to show off how silly it looks). Will Hunt play? He might, just to...

    NRL Rd 16 2023 - General Non-Warriors Thread

    It's another Origin-affected round, but still important in this increasingly fascinating season. Friday has the Cowboys - who must be a real chance considering their form - hosting Penrith, who will be without a number of stars, plus the injured Cleary. Payten's troops need this if they're to...
