Storm are either just going through the motions, waiting for the finals
(which is what think they are doing, no point going full throttle)
Or they are sliding down a bit in form - wait and see for now


Two block busters on tonight, cant wait

6pm Dragons v Penrith
805pm Ponys v Roosters


I understand ch9 have first crack at the friday 8pm game and Sunday 4pm game.

How you let Fox exclusively have the Manly v Parra game is puzzling

Unless Ch9 don't have the power any more, signed a cheaper rights deal and lose power to decide?

my understanding is the nrl has full control now which is why the draw is now fully set 3 months prior to the season starting. They take into account certain event weeks and club requests, but i dont think its like the old days where 9 got a list of every round and chose which 2/3 games they wanted

No way is Cleary 100%

Front on tackling would be fine, run to the side of his shoulder injury, try get his arm away from his body.

Im sure thats what we will be doing in 3 weeks time 😇

Cleary just straight shoulder charges a guy and the commentators just laugh about how great a shot it is given he has had a bad shoulder…

Eels v Manly IS on channel 9 tomorrow night .... I think they are doing Saturday night games the rest of the season

Panthers just showed how easy it is to set up an attacking play. And scored.
Spread it on early tackles, settled for one, and spread it the other side for the remainder.
I know it's only against St George but still.
It's not rocket science, yet our dills of coaching staff and our players just cannot execute such an easy play.

Penrith have JFH,Too,Capewell,Leniu,Korisau,TPJ still to inject.
They look a different side with Nathan. Luai looks a different beast.

he was definitely very effective stepping through the panthers for that try - they are a good defensive team - tho they may have clocked off a bit

he also only made 5 tackles - missed 2 and had 1 ineffective ..... see what he can do week in week out when teams start running big merkins at him for 25-30 tackles a game
