tongue on the field = 0 for, 25 against

tongue off, buttriss on = 24 for, 0 against

why that dumb prick furner continues to persist with tongue at hooker I have nfi

 

[Proud2BeCanberran]

Yeah, Furner please just go. Your selections, tactics, game plan, is just dead set shithouse. Please hand in your resignation.

You're a dud. Simple as that.

Was Buttriss on the field at the start of Golden Point or was he pulled altogether?

He was on for the first defensive set.

 

[Pete Cash]

It wasn't the difference but it was a dumb move. We are such a dumb side. TLL made 174 metres according to NRL.com but his brainlessness outweighed his running.

The only real bright spots from this year has been Sam Williams and Josh Papali. If Papali is dropped next week I will honestly eat my computer in a rage.

 

[AuDragon]

Despite the refs push, can't be happy with the last 15 mins of that game. Youth played a role, they thought they were home and clocked off.

In the end the better team won, and the young Broncos learned a very good lesson that the game is only won once the ref blows the final whistle!

Wallace had a brilliant game and throughly deserved that field goal.

 

[some11]

Good form skeepe, your boys showed that when they can play footy when they hold onto it.

Valuable 2 points for us.

+1, holy shit they gave us a scare. Coughing up a 24 point lead :sarcasm: Same thing happened round 1 last year against the Cowboys...

 

[innsaneink]

Shouldnt have been GP....havent read the thread but that was no knock on to Brisbane off the Canberra kick

 

[stormbati]

Papalii is a Ruben Wiki clone!
Unlucky Canberra but imagine you could do with an 80 minute performance!

 

[skeepe]

Papalli is awesome, thank god he's a Qlder.

NZ might have something to say about that.

 

[Timmah]

NZ might have something to say about that.

His junior club Logan Brothers and his representing the QLD Under 18's might have something to say about that.


BTW, how many forward passes did Brisbane get away with yesterday? :|

He played for the Junior Kiwis just last year.

Plenty, but that's alright because they pulled up that one early by Canberra (that went backwards) so they did their job :sarcasm:

 

[Big Pete]

If you're referring to the end of season games against the Kangaroos - no he didn't. You must be thinking of Mataora who also qualifies for both.

 

[raiders fan forever]

Papalli is going to be a great forward hopefully the rest of the raiders forwards see this rookie kid carving it up better than them and step up. Well done Brisbane you guys deserved it would of been one that got away.

 

[Raider_69]

Im bloody sick of forward passes in this game
i love nfl, and if i want to watch it, ill go and watch a game

brisbane were criminal for it but we had quite a number of them too... i recon every game i watch i point out at least 7-8 forward passes, mostly from hooker, where its clear

there was one yesterday where one brisbane play was litterly standing a metre away and metre in front and yet it still didnt get called. Im done with it. Tongue loves it too, its horrible officiating.

Papalii got picked in the squad and has declared his allegiance to New Zealand, where he was born.

I realise it's not always easy to know everything about the juniors of other teams, so probably just best to trust my knowledge of Raiders players than forcing me to prove you wrong

 

[Pete Cash]

Whatever he is he is an absolute beast and my favourite player at the moment.

 

[Big Pete]

You said he played for them, which he did not.

If he chose to be a Kiwi, I'm fine with that.

 

[Raider_69]

Id love to see him declare for the kiwis... he's a long way off... although given he's probably played himself into b.harrisons starting spot, who is a starting 2nd rower for NZ, inexusably, he's maybe not that far off
but the kid is good
