2025: Week 1 Finals

[Gary Gutful]

Does Ennis deep throat every player, every game?

Are you Roooooouuuly asking that question?

 

[Suitman]

Seriously, could there have been a more obvious forward pass for that try?

It was cruel, that's for sure.

Watching the finals games so far I’m not seeing anything that Parra (based on 2nd half form) should be worried about.

Dogs will be out in straight sets. Panthers will be too good.

Injuries for starters. Getting through the finals without injuries and a suspension is a tough ask. We are a bottom half of the top 8 prospect next year but experience and depth in the finals would be testing our team. Last night's game was a finals style game. This game in NZ didn't have that feel for me.

I'm going to need a surplus supply of beers to watch it.

As expected, Panthers too good for Warriors - and still on track for the five-peat.

Now to watch the Roosters demolish the Sharks at their shitty second-rate suburban semi-finals ground....

Do you think @Avenger will be there as a casual observer?

In the NRL crowd thread, people always talk about which teams have the best fans. Broncos, Cowboys, Newcastle etc are up there.

But honestly, the Warriors are the only team in the NRL that have sold out every single home game for the past two seasons.
They get my vote.

Considering the dodgy weather there it makes that even more impressive.

All the more reason why there should be a second team in NZ and ditch the silly PNG idea.

No mate. But I can watch it live from my brother's apartment.

On the TV or through the window?

On the TV or through the window?

The balcony. It is however too high.

 

[Eelogical]

Most likely the balcony.

Which team do you think will win? I'm going for the Sharks but I can sense the Roosters will be up for the big occasion.

I completely agree with that thought.
Christchurch is just about to open a stunning new 30 000 seat stadium.
A North Island - South Island derby is a cracker.
The PNG team is going nowhere atm. Albanese has f**ked up throwing $600 million at this franchise, just to try and keep the Chinese at bay.
f**king stupid.

I want the Sharks to lose simply because they shouldn't be holding a semi-final in a 12000-capacity stadium.

Albo would have been better off buying the Kiwis a new warship.
