NRL Finals 2024

3 penalties in 73mins

Yep, both should be tap 10m out.
But there is a reward of getting the ball back if it bounced out for dropout team.

How ridiculous that a line dropout that goes out on the full can have 2 different outcomes.

It ruined the climax to the game. As the Sharks were eight ahead.

26-18, Sharks. Final.

SJ on the Fox Sports junket.
Hilarious opening by Yvonne say 2 old Warriors, Brandy Alexander and Shawn Johnson. Brandy wanted to go have a bleach bath as soon as he could!

Funny, thought to much going on to call a penalty try, to far out.

And i dont think it was half the distance at all. Yes he was closer and probably gets there first, but the ball was actually bouncing towards Dearden so things could have been tight.
Sets a precedent now that probably none of the other bunker muppets will adhere to, based on their consistently inconsistent behaviour this year ( and every other year for that matter)

 

[Beavers Headgear]

I still think he is getting there easily, if his feet aren’t taken he is another step closer too and running directly at the ball, Dearden is going to be at least 2 steps behind him getting to the ball

Probably ends up being a better call for the Cowboys, they were struggling enough to defend with 13, could have been a flood with 12 and their best defender off

Monster Mash! Lodge v JWH!!!

I thought the penalty try was fine

Nanai shows just how much the Cowboys go under the radar

Current origin and international backrower, one of the most gifted guys ability wise in that position, and in a knockout finals game last night, the hook came out for him in the 2nd half and it doesn’t get a mention

JWH worries me, if they are behind on the scoreboard with 10mins to go, how many heads does he take with him that can’t back up next week

i'm sure the thought will never cross his mind

I don’t know why they changed the rule tbh, it worked perfectly as it was, risk v reward and if you got a short one wrong, you paid a price. Now it takes away a bit of the reward of being good enough to earn a repeat seat with it being more of a lottery

Tonight’s game sold out

 

[Beavers Headgear]

Game done inside 30 seconds

 

[JJ]

Wow that’s some start…

 

[Beavers Headgear]

If penalties and 6 agains stay at a ratio of 6:1 this will hit 40. Looks like both teams have some points in them

 

[Blair]

20-4, Chooks. Halftime.

I've just got back from the rugby.

 

[Blair]

The Manly try, that conversion looked quite easy? It's not like they didn't need the points.

 

[Beavers Headgear]

“Aloiai places the ball onto Tuponuias foot, challenge unsuccessful” Really ?

 

[Beavers Headgear]

Great effort from Matt Sloth, comes back on, drops the ball, misses an easy tackle on Manu, jogs back and ends up short missing Tedesco again as he scores

 

[Blair]

34-4, Manly are done, maybe (they just scored after a nice Turbo break)...make that 34-10!

Twenty mins left.
