From the Laundromat - round 4 vs Storm

Well thank phuque for Cecchin.

About time the “Blitz” has been real.

Every other year everybody whinges about how the early season blitzes die in the arse and make a mockery of the game.

Bigger picture is that the NRL are trying to open the game up and destroy the cheating from years and years of player and coach abuse.
If the participants (coaches and players) get off their high horses and realise they don’t own the game and that the line has been drawn in the sand then the game will really die.

I see this debacle from tonight as a beginning, not an end. Surely everyone that plays and runs a team will at least start getting the message that this crackdown is serious.

The penalty count could of been even higher. Slater should of gotten a couple. Vunivulva got away with sideways play the balls again. 8,000 forward passes by both teams were let go as examples.

The ones in the jerseys and the ones instructing them have to take ownership. The refs have been told to play to the rules. The players have known for months. But as if to prove how dumb they are and how arrogant they are they keep pushing the boundaries. Now the boundaries are pushing back.

Short term pain for long term gain IMO.

All the whinging from fans and commentators is perplexing. This is what we have all asked for for years. Clean the game up we scream!

Well now that attempts are being made to do just that we want to do a 180 and hop off the bus that’s travelling to CleanUpVille.

Get on board. Don’t blame the refs. This is down to players and coaches who for too long have manipulated and steered the game clear of the rules.

I hope it continues long enough for the dumb phuques to see the penny drop.

QIAC and Tina sucks at fullback

Holmes - 5. Wasn’t in the game. No one was I suppose but he made a kindergarten error again. He did get in position well once to clean up a kick

Lee - 6. Pretty good. Ran hard, worked well with Noodle, gave JAC no room and scored that try off Ramien same as trial

Ramien - 7. Made a mess of Scott. Smashed him a few times, got in his face and frustrated him. Ran hard. Nice flick again for Cedric

Leutele - 6. Standard game

Feki - 6. Standard game

Hokko - 7. So much clean up work by the man. Last ditch tackles, loose ball cleanups, especially on bombs to Feki.

Coifee - 6. Standard game. Still at 100%

Feefs -7. Menace. Persistent. Difficult. Energised

Brailey - 6. Not much doin’

Prior - 6. Standard game

Graham - 8. Much improved. Ran harder, hit hard, was a nuisance by getting in their faces. Didn’t let Lara Croft get outside at all

Lewis - 8. As per Graham really, just in the other side. Managed to somehow take Arseholeamona out

Gallen - 6. Standard game.

Capewell - 3. Offering hardly anything. Not phuqing up. Just no impact

Segue - 6. Came on and made metres. Survived an attempted decapitation. Made his tackles, made his runs

Paulo - 4. Nothing really

Hitlers missus - 4. Does nothing for me. Plodder

I need to ask this and be corrected if I'm wrong.
The Holmes into touch thing, I only saw the one replay at the ground so I'm going off slow motion memory loss.
It looked like he was tackled and the ball was on the ground and then he was dragged across the touch line.
Was this the case? As i thought the rules are when the ball hits the ground and an opposing player has a hand on you it is held.
Please correct me if I saw it wrong

Probably but he should have never attempted it. It’s a close game, ball control and discipline was going to win it.

Nah was a fair tackle and was the worst play I have ever seen Holmes do. What is going on with him.
I still think Hodkinson has to be in the team somewhere.
Flanno ball rules atm with the refs
3- gall what a f**kin machine was getting mashed in the dying minutes
2-Hodko all class
1 fifita solid

I am no Holmes fan but f**k me that was blatant
The ball and player are on the ground
There was no momentum
A bad call by the officials

Agreed - Gallen turned back the clock while Capwell hit the snooze button - how did he go from a world beater to the current state of play.
On the game, players rule the game, NRL trying to play via the refs- more pain ahead. Lucky that the oz cricket scandal is taking up plenty of media atm

Well he wasn’t at the game that’s for sure. He watches at home, waiting for the tiniest Holmes error flexing his fingers waiting for the washup moment. Pathetic.
I am with you on the over the top player hate but I thought your spray had resulted in it being toned down a notch or two
Holmes had his best game of the year...I think that says it all really

Re Capewell - I think he is the type of player that needs munch more time on a footy field to get his mojo. He gets limited time and I guess is usually thrown into different positions at times.

It is something he wont get with our squad and how coach has it functioning.
