    2018 R8 Sun - Eels 24-22 Wests Tigers @ ANZ

    Eels did what was needed? Throw several forward passes for tries? I guess that what was needed. I'll get called a whinger, but the Tigers should have won every game so far. Ripped off against Brisbane...ripped off against the Knights...and ripped off again tonight. I'm calling a fatwa on...

    2018 R8 Sun - Eels 24-22 Wests Tigers @ ANZ

    I can not believe the pathetic refereeing of forward passes in this game. Tigers being blatantly ripped off (as they were against Newcastle). Two tries directly scored from forward passes.

    Can the Tigers win the comp?

    As a Magpie prior to the merger, this year has the feel of 1978. Just watch us win the minor prem then fail to make the GF! No seriously, I think we can win.

    Robbie Farah

    But Michael Ennis is made for Origin! If NSW had stuck by Farah after his mistakes in 2009 (as QLD would have done) he would have had teh confidence then to grow into the awesome Blues player he's about to become. He'd probably be captain by now (not that I'm complaining about Gallen - doing a...

    Who's your most loved/hated players and why?

    As I said at the start of this thread, I had a bit of a love/hate thing with Wally. I think I started to change over when he got king hit two or three times playing for Oz against the poms in late 80s early 90s. Absolutely smashed but he kept getting up and getting back in the line. After that I...

    Who's your most loved/hated players and why?

    Okay, the hated club thread was really interesting but I'll bet this thread will generate even more heat. My most loved ever player was Tommy Raudonikis. He was the player that genuinely got me interested in the game (also loved Dallas Donnelly). Has anyone seen Tommy's travelling roadshow...

    Who is your most hated team and why?

    Canterbury. Difficult to put my finger on why - it probably started when they stole Terry Lamb from the Magpies. They always seem to have the most arseholes in their ranks (eg, SBW, Ennis) and there's an arrogance about them I find very distasteful. If there's one thing almost as good as a...

    Mitchell Pearce

    I've seen Carney run 60 metres plus on numerous occasions but can't think of any times that Pearce has done it (Roosters fans might correct me). I have, however, seen Pearce do lots of cool tricksy things that didn't involve a great deal of pace...but not yet for NSW. Carney might help him get...

    Farah's anger

    Farah missed tackles in game 2 when he had busted ribs and shouldn't have played. The only reason (I reckon) he played was because of the Eenis-backers constantly saying he wasn't tough enough. He was on a hiding to nothing. If he played he was gonna get targeted (and he was) and if he didn't...

    Mitchell Pearce

    Pearce is too slow for my taste. I'd love to see a lightning quick halfback to really worry QLD, but if we're not going to see that (who is there fast and good enough?) I wouldn't mind seeing Carney get a run. He might bring out something in Pearce that we've not seen for NSW. Throw in Farah...

    Farah's anger

    I'm not questioning Buderus's quality (far from it). All I'm saying is that Farah was playing well for a long time as his heir apparent. Should have won the Dally M in (I think) the 2nd last year of DB's reign and was Dally M hooker of the year. The selectors stayed with Buderus and they were...

    Farah's anger

    I wouldn't be so sure that Farah's been pencilled in just yet (far too early in any case). He's been ripped off in the past - was in far better form than Buderus in the last year or two DB's tenure, but no-one would have begrudged DB his selection because of past service. Farah probably copped...

    Farah's anger

    I didn't want to start up another Farah v Ennis thread (even us Tigers fans have just about had enough of that). I was just commenting on Robbie's psychologoy going into the game. He's copped constant (ignorant, in my view) criticism about not being as tough as Eenis and then lost his spot to...

    Farah's anger

    Don't know whether this has been discussed elsewhere... Do you reckon Farah was looking for an excuse to show his stink credentials after "made for Origin" Ennis covered himself with glory the other night? I wouldn't be surprised, especially if Friend was stupid enough to remind Farah that...

    Bye Bye Michael Ennis.

    Would Priddis or Tongue have thrown cheap shots at a bloke on the ground (in front of their posts with a game to win) and then scampered away when the bloke gets to his feet? I don't think so. For all the Bulldogs fans trying to sound impartial about Ennis, watch that again and ask yourselves...

    Bye Bye Michael Ennis.

    I'm seriously not kidding when I say not only is Ennis well behind Farah in the NSW hooker stakes...he wouldn't even make 3 or 4! I'd definitely pick Gidley, Priddis, De Gois, Tongue, and the little bloke who plays for Rooty Hill under 7s before that cat Ennis.

    Bye Bye Michael Ennis.

    Go back to Origin 1 last year - Farah was one of our best. Then he played in Origin 2 with busted ribs (when some people were doubting his toughness, so what choice did he have?), had a bad game by his (very high) standards, but that's when the Ennis Myth suddenly went into top gear and the...

    Bye Bye Michael Ennis.

    Farah to star in Origin in 2011. Ennis to star in a Whiskas commercial.

    Bye Bye Michael Ennis.

    Ah Eenis...rubbish once again. During Origin 2 I was watching in disbelief as he'd throw a few powder puff cheap shots and then scamper away as soon as the cat-scratched victim went for him, but instead of bagging him for being a cat the fahkin commentators were carrying on about how Ennis the...

    OFFICIAL New South Wales team, Game 3

    How can the Sharks have ANY players when the Tiges have none (I'm not counting Lawrence as 19th man). There was young man named Eenis Whom Bellamy said was genius It just makes me sick Coz the reason he's picked Is for sucking on Bellamy's nob
