NRL Rd 6 2021 - General Non-Warriors Thread

[SmashEmBro]

There’s already a story on NRL.com saying the Warriors have baulked at his price, but no details about what this is.

Interesting that he would consider coming here, I dunno, I’d be happy if we paid 500k, its a decent sized risk but when we don’t get many other options I think we need to jump in

 

[Blair]

Innes? At least he was in his prime?

Innes went to Manly, was bad (meaning great!), then went back to the Auckland Blues, and was average, the professional game of union had pretty much passed him by.

 

[Blair]

Six pm, Sydney time. Knights v Cronulla, but I kind of wish we'd get our hiding v Dragons out of the way early, then I can just try and enjoy the rest of the weekend.

 

[Blair]

"40-20 to Blake Green!" Geez, talk about 'ex-Warrior watch'! I thought he was finished.

It led to the opening try by Ponga.

Edit, last gasp win to Newcastle.

We're underway in Melbourne, this stuff is about the premiership.

Edit 2, no tries, 4-0 Storm at half-time. Let's hope this isn't the GF. It's a predictable drag for neutrals.

Storm v Roosters was at a different speed.
There professionalism is impressive.
Papenhuysen missed a line break opportunity as ball not passed to him, reloaded and went next play and scored.
Most seem to sit and wait or think why bother again.
Grant is sharpe out of dummy half.
Envy runny deep.

Wonder how things are in alternate reality where Warriors waited for Bellamy to come coach.

Must be nice. Brandon Smith and Grant on the same team. And the other Smith just retired....

What are ya talkin about! We often have Jazz and Egan on the field at the same time. It’s basically the same thing

I’ll see myself out

 

[Philip_Smith007]

Forgot to mention the class of Ponga to pop up and set up tries. Also with a stomach bug seen unwell out the back during the game.

 

[JJ]

Looks like the Warriors and the return of Tom T have given Manly some self belief

 

[SmashEmBro]

Who was telling me the Titans were better than us? Getting absolutely smashed by Manly...makes the Warriors look a little bit better aye

Manly are back. 36-0 out in Mudgee NSW. Where's Beave?

 

[Blair]

C'mon Tigers! The comp needs this.

12-6 ahead, 2nd Half and Souths rattled.

 

[Philip_Smith007]

Reynolds pulls out his second 2 point drop goal to draw it up with the Tigers with 5mins on clock!
That's what it was designed for.

 

[Benek]

I’m loving the new 2 points field goal rule. Reynolds is such a master.

 

[Philip_Smith007]

Then he misses the penatly kick to win It with 3 mins

 

[Philip_Smith007]

Followed by a 22m field goal with 1min 21 on clock. The captains challenge to slow it all down.

 

[SmashEmBro]

Faaaark, hoping Tigers don’t pull this off as statistically there’s probably not going to be 3 upsets in the round, we need the juju

 

[Blair]

Golden Point, Tigers have played five of these at Stadium Australia, and have lost all five!

 

[Benek]

Crazy crazy crazy

 

[Philip_Smith007]

Crazy end to golden point.
Burgess slams it down for a try, Rabbits celebrate while Brooks runs to other end and scores (smart play the whistle). Ref calls try to Tigers check grounding at other end as called ball lost by Burgess.
Try Burgess, didn't lose it!!! BUNNIES WIN
Madness!!!!
