That game was a PERFECT illustration of everything that is wrong with Vlandals NRL. For real like a "I rest my case" moment. So bad.

Look it’s consistent that as a fan is all you ask. You double pump you have to pass not run behind, it’s an old fashioned shepherd.

What happened to the decoy just needing to “run through the line”, which he did.

The defenders were cooked, and played for the penalty. It was a joke.

Look despite the refs doing their best to make it about them the right side won , just by 6-12 less than they should have, let’s be real here.
The Titans had a bloody good crack but anyone who thinks there were anywhere near deserving to pinch that is dreaming, they fought hard to turn a hiding into a respectable result.

Entertaining game for a neutral. Tits showed plenty of fight. Dessie could have them challenging for the 8 next year.

Great game. Usually the 6pm games are dull but that was great.

Then we've got Super Saturday, Cowboys and Broncos at 3pm. Woah, good time to stay at home

I love when Blocker's on. He's so inoffensively dumb. I'd rather listen to his innocent stupidity than people who have massive egos.

Blocker legitimately seems like a good merkin. The commentary box has been clogged up by ‘subtly’ racist boomers for 30 years (Wayne Pearce and Gary Belcher spring to mind). It may actually be justice that boofhead Blocker is the one who survived, cos he seems like a good bloke.

Still can’t run behind him causing the defenders potentially missing out on sliding. It’s an old fashioned shepherd.

Bit unfair to say metcalf butchered the try. He did everything right. It was just a cruel bounce.

you can't tell me you haven't seen a heap of those since round 2 till now? And if you say you haven't then you're clearly trolling.
Mate, I’m not the one who pulled an arbitrary figure out of my ass to help justify your salty tears about someone being rightfully sent. Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

A bit late to the party, but that Niukore sin bin was completely bizarre. I was watching the KAYO Bite and I could not work out what had happened. I thought Fifita was going to go if anyone did. Niukore cops a forearm to the face, then gets forcefully pushed/palmed in the face and as he’s stumbling back he reaches out and lightly grazes Fifita’s cheek with an open hand. I had to go into the main replay and watch it about 15 times before I could even work out what happened. This is one of the reasons I barely watch any full games anymore apart from Parramatta, which is painful enough as it is. Random send offs, random sin-binnings, rule interpretations changing day by day with games just completely destroyed by the referees or the people instructing them.

And a player sent off for a tackle so severe it resulted in a one match suspension. Fantastic stuff.
