So we get Roosters smashing Manly and Cronulla smashing the Cowboys. Next week the Storm will destroy the Chooks and the Panthers will make chum out of the Sharks.

What a terrible state the game is in, honestly.
Na, just need more rich merkins throwing money at teams!

Salary cap doing its thing.

Unfortunately at this point it's just the best teams with the best coaches making it through. The Storm's last grand final winning side in 2020 has lost 11/17 players whilst the Panthers 2021 winning side has lost 8/17 players with 2 more leaving at the end of this season.

They're recruiting well or have good juniors coming through that allows them to remain in top ladder positions. The only team that was going to be able to really challenge Melbourne or Penrith this year were the Roosters and even then we've got the 20 match hoodoo on us and we've lost 2/4 of our spine so were we ever really a chance?

Referee.. 'I have no try ... player loses the ball in a tackle.'
Bunker ... 'I have a fan in row 2, bay 37 booing the Roosters player. Penalty Roosters. '

Just saw a reply of the first 2 tackles. Watson is a bit of a grub. Points at Jake the beached whale to the ref, then shoves him back to the ground as he’s trying to get up.

The nasty moustache didn't give it away? He looks like the kind of bloke who would cup a fart and release it in your face.

Same teams in the prelims every year is getting boring
So get better.


Seriously though, your team has made great steps in the last 12 months and should be even better for the run. I'll be disappointed if you aren't thereabouts next season.

Probably thought he was milking it to slow the play the ball down, so was poiunting at him begging for a penalty. IIRC, it was Sitili who realised that Jake had a head knock and called attention to it.

If you want a bloke out of the ruck for a quick ptb you don’t push him back down into the ruck.
