Yeah good try.

 

[chrisD]

Yeah very nice.

 

[Munky]

How do you fall for the in and away on the sideline?

 

[MRN]

Oof. That hurts for the Kumuls. They did so well to reign the game back in and should have been leading really.

 

[Manu Vatuvei]

Exceptional 40 minutes from McLean. Good that we’ve poached someone for once.

 

[chrisD]

McLean got a very unique looking face.

Kiwi's have really phoned this in, disappointing they haven't gone harder simply for the sake of the jersey and securing their spot.

Listening to the Ch9 commentary almost makes me think paying for Kayo's highway robbery so I don't have to listen to Freddy and Joey is worth it.

Almost.

 

[Manu Vatuvei]

Jeez this kid goes good

Almost.

I cancelled Kayo after the GF. As for 9, 1/2 the time they’re not even talking about the game and when they do, they either don’t know the players name or try to sensationalise random things like knock ons

Jeez this kid goes good

His form was ahead of both grand final winning centres in his 7 games for Penrith. Looks exceptional for his age. Surely he keeps a Kiwi jersey after this.

He should only get better with age and experience.

They were going on about the look of discomfort on Turbo's face.

Like dude, he is one of the most high profile players in the game and for years he has looked like he is trying to hold in a shit. You'd think the commentary team would be aware of this, but apparently dude's paid to watch, follow and comment on RL, including one guy who literally coached him for Origin, aren't aware of this!

A few years back they had Vautin in the box for a Broncos v Warriors game.

Vautin had obviously not watched a single Warrior's game in years as he didn't know any player's name.

The cringe was real.

Fair play to Fatty that man literally has brain damage from that Sumo Suit accident in addition to whatever CTE he got as a player.

Having him on TV is essentially elder abuse.

 

[Munky]

The PENRITH back three are going to run up some metres next year.

 

[Manu Vatuvei]

Kiwis look total shit until whenever they decide to run a play towards McLean, at which point the spine all become prime Joey Johns

 

[ParraEelsNRL]

No matter the score in this match now, but after watching international RL since I first started watching the Kangaroo tours as a child in the early morning hours in the 1970's. I can not believe we are watching around 7-8 international teams being competitive and having a chance at certain times of knocking off the big boys. Well done ARLC, now get Europe doing the same thing.

 

[Canard]

CNK with the perfect kick of the left foot for a try.

Andrew Johns "Worst kick you will ever see!!!"

Case(y) in point

 

[mxlegend99]

Case(y) in point

They appear to have realised the only thing working is attacking left down the wing with Casey.

Im gonna put that on Hiku being on the right.

 

[t-ba]

Having this game last was the dumbest shit ever.
