2024 Week 1: FINALS Sep13-15

[King-Gutho94]

Fun fact

Parra are still the only away side to win a final in Auckland and Townsville in the history of the game.

Auckland 2007
Townsville 2022

No other side has beaten the Warriors or Cowboys in a final away from home.

Highly overrated

Highest paid player in the game and deserves half what he’s on

Nah....don't like him...but he single handedly kept them in the game, and the last few weeks got his team in the finals.....no chance they make the 8 without him.....credit where its due...

I feel the game would be better if they just ruled no knock ons when contesting a loose ball.

AFL - Australian Fumbleball League - is calling you... if only you'd f**k off to some other forum!

 

[Poupou Escobar]

We’d still have knock ons for when a merkin in possession drops the ball, or someone drops a pass from a team mate. But when contesting a kick or a ball dropped backwards just let them scrap for it. Whoever ends up with the ball it’s play on from there.

Who would you stalk if I left you f**ken nitwit

NRL: nope, your ground is shit. Not happening.

 

[King-Gutho94]

Cronulla were surely taking the piss asking for the game to be played at Shark Park.

The ground isn't up for standard for NRL games let alone a final.

It's genuinely a piss take there allowed to play at home at all considering the size and facilities of that ground

With his defensive deficiencies, Blaize may only be playing at Commbank when nsw cup is the curtain raiser….
