Archer doing his best to keep this close. Touching prince is a penalty it seems, as is being in the vicinity of the play the ball when friend trips over his own feet.

Out completions are f**king awesome, as is our goal line defence. If we can keep this up we'll give it a shake.

Having said that I am extremely wary of Prince. He is the best player in the world and will not die wondering.

Going to be a great 2nd half!

I think the problem is he's agressive. Alot of people seem to have issues with agressive players.

JWH is awesome for the game imo

I have no problems with aggression. I think it's something that's sorely lacking in today's game.

But there's nothing tough about dropping elbows and forearms onto the heads and necks of defenseless players already being held down. It's cowardly in fact.

LOL this is finals footy. Facials are to be expected. The best of them do it

Scott Logan got a grade 4 charge for an identical hit on Heighington last week. I don't agree with it, I think Prince dived massively, but precedent has been set.


Can't believe Logan got a grade 4! That's ridiculous.


Still, we all know precedent means nothing on the NRL. Nothing short of a cam smith neck breaker will get someone suspended this week

There is no way that Carney will miss the GF for that if the Roosters were to win the game. The judiciary doesn't take precedent into account.

Bit over the top

Archer is an awful ref and some of the penalties have been soft- probably more favoring the Titans. As it is, 12-6 is an accurate reflection though.

As an unbiased watcher, friend (elbows & knees) & bird (constantly around head & neck) certainly square the ledger IMO

Friend is a grub of Gallen-like proportions. I can't believe he escapes similar scrutiny.
