NRL Rd 21 2024 - General Non-Warriors Thread

[Alan Johnson]

Sounds like the Brisbane-Bulldogs game is amazing but my usually trusty stream has chosen this game to shit itself.

Wow, this is nearly performance of the year from the Dogs

GF bolters. Their tries show they can do that.

I was brave enough to look at the ladder. The Warriors seriously don't want the Cowboys, Dragons and Dolphins to win.

Taupau scores a consolation in his 250th.

41-16, Dogs. Final. Brisbane are out of the finals race.

 

[Alan Johnson]

Wow. At the start of the season I had Brisbane down for another trip to the grand final.

Some bruised young 'hot-shot' egos there, for sure.

Bugger, I wish I didn't look at the ladder and see that the Cowboys, Dragons and Dolphins needed to lose, for oursake. It's 10-4, Cowboys now, but I don't need the stress.

Relying on other results is the absolute pits.

Edit: JT's failed his HIA. Choice!...and now Vailea's does us a huge favour, darting out of the line, tackling Casper the ghost. The 12-man Sharks score. 12-10, Cows.

Bugger, now veteran Feldt scores, Holmes converts. 18-10.

 

[JJ]

Just hate to see the donkeys struggle

 

[Beavers Headgear]

Feldt is a flog, you’d think a guy that absolutely choked on a kick to cost his side the comp in the 20s GF would have some tiny piece of humility

 

[Blair]

'Can Kyle Feldt ice the game for the Cowboys...?' ('Can Kyle Feldt help end the Warriors slim finals hopes...?')

Yep. ***k him.

 

[Alan Johnson]

So the sun sets on the warriors 2024 campaign. Better luck next year. Up the wahs.

I became nasty and desperate, where I was cheering Cowboys injuries. On that note, I deserve to be kicked into next year.

 

[Beavers Headgear]

Wow, Roosters are on tonight. My comp favourites, but can they produce it against the big dogs ?

 

[JJ]

Just hate to see the donkeys struggle

Also hate to see Manly get flogged

There’s some sorry-looking Manly fans in the crowd. You know the drill, they hate going into the city at the best of times!

Got a big hint on that last week??? Nobody has shown they can match Penrith when it counts yet anyway.

If their forwards show up with intent like tonight, they could easily roll Melbourne, Panthers a different story but it’s all about their mindset

I’m not too despondent, have had absolutely no luck tonight, Ben T filling in the backline getting a bath, but 1 try from a forward pass and 1 from a bit of pinball luck. Held in there and had a crack, losing Garrick and Saab to HIA inside 2 mins of each other will break the back again. As I type they jag another arsey pinball try

I agree…. Penrith remains the team to beat though, even with their talent making several other teams more of a threat

It’s probably the dream GF, Panthers doing it for Luai and Fisher-Harris, Roosters for JWH, Keary and a lesser extent Manu

 

[Beavers Headgear]

Haha Klein has found his forward pass call this half

Great ticker to somehow even be in this

 

[Blair]

A great Manly fightback showed games are never really over...until, you know.

34-30, Roosters. Final.
