Just sent a note to the NRL that in 40 years of watching the game Roosters v Broncos was the worst I have seen. The nit picking rules placing on report and sin binning was terrible. Victor Radley sent off twice and on report twice a joke. I know the idea is to cut out head knocks but surely there must be a better way. This of course plus non spotting of forward passes by the referee and is there touch judges?? What do they do?? I am not a supporter of either team of course.

Victor deserved what he got and should've been sent.

They are behind us on the current ladder. They were last year too as I recall.

They are most certainly the team everyone has to beat.
Both attacks are close, our defence is MILES better. Injuries aside if we don't win the comp it's a choke

There is a lot of footy the played between now and finals time so a lot can happen.

Drawing conclusions after 10 rounds in and suggesting if we don’t win the big one it will amount to a choke is rather premature and rather silly particularly given just how powerful the Storm are not just there top 17 but there depth as was on show tonight.

It will be interesting to see how tomorrow pans out given we are missing two key players, only two for us, but key none the less.

Tomorrow may be enlightening so I look forward to it.

At full strength for both teams, I would bet on the Storm to beat us in the Grand Final. I just feel they have a much better coach when it matters and more spark in attack when it matters.

But I think injuries and sin bins/send offs are going to play a major part in the finals.

Coaching is what they definitely have over us and that's big yes. As long as Ivan doesn't suddenly drop someone and put May in a random position I think we are looking very good

for the punters...rugby league is a shamble at this moment.

What's required is patience to wait for players and coaches to catch up. Fans and media prefer the drama and are scared of change though so no positive evolution allowed.


I'm seriously pissed off that a Storm player could lead with the elbow and it was considered a good run unlike Martin who was penalised, a call I defended at the time. :rage:

Manly are a bugger chance of knocking you guys out in finals then Parra.
They have the best player in game and some other tremendous players. Plus Des will throw caution into wind. Smart coach.
BA will play the same tough predicted style
