Round 24 vs Tigpies

[Dragon David]

Plus the same stooge that canned us last week with the whistle

Are they both Tigers sympathisers?

 

[BLM01]

I thought Max was injured?

He is..for this season anyway

f**k, I didn’t realise that

 

[blacksafake]

I am surprised that he has been named in the 17. I don't think any of the backs has an injury.

Could be that Hook has been reading the Forum and is wanting to please us fans in having Ramsey, Sloan, Sullivan, Amone and one of the Feagai boys playing in the same team for once?

But I'm still surprised about Sloan being in the 17.
My thoughts too.

Maybe we’ll see at some stage Bird into the pack with Moga to centre & Sloan to wing

Or most likely Sloan to drop out of the squad.

Max can find an injury, very unlucky for him if fit he’d be in the mix for a start

I don't understand this team list.

If News Ltd are exposed for their undue influence on the game then the Storm and Broncos are both stripped of all points. Meanwhile, the salary cap auditor finally learns how to add so the Roosters are kicked out too. The Sharks are discovered with some dubious supplements - again - so they're gone. The Panthers prayer circle take a leaf out of Manly's book and object to the NRL making it Pride Finals so they can't field a team. As they are wont to do, Walker and Latrell are trying to kick people but unfortunately this time it's each other and their resulting injuries spell the end of the Rabbitoh's chances. The Eels lose in the finals because that's just their thing. Ricky tries some team bonding at a Bunnings sausage sizzle but the meat has gone bad so their season is over due to some weak-gutted hot dogs. Manly, in defending those deep Christian values of occasioning grievous bodily harm, learn that GHB was a party drug popular in the gay community in the early 2000s - their confusion is such that they cannot play. Jacinta Ardern locks the border again so the Warriors can't get to their games. Having loaned two-thirds of their players to other clubs, the Tigers can't field a team. The Titans are just crap and the Knights are all out celebrating recent house purchases.

The grand final is a marketer's dream: Dragons vs Bulldogs, Hook vs Gus, a chance at redemption for Paul Vaughan. PVL is so thrilled he tries to put on a trifecta before being reminded that in this sport there are only two runners.

The game is a tight affair with the Bulldogs woeful defence still nullifying the Dragons non-existent attack. With the scores locked at nil-all in the 79th minute, Andrew McCullough makes his first run from dummy-half and splits the defence. Moga is looming in support with just the fullback to beat. Matt Dufty, recently recalled from Warrington to face his former team, chooses not to tackle anyone and goes for his trademark intercept. It actually works for the very first time and he races the length of the field to score. Bulldogs win 4 - 0.

It's not the result Dragons fans were hoping for but the BoD had a great day out: the food was good and tap beers and house wines were free so they extend the coach for another three years.

C'mon Hook - it's still possible! Don't stray from the plan while there's still a chance.

It is so good that we can be comical and have a good laugh about all of this league stuff (or are you being serious Gourley?).

2 teams not in semi’s contention. 2 teams who have been absolute basket cases in the past 10 years. Both teams full of plodders and players with hearts the size of a pea and feet for hands. This looks to be the game of the year.

Maybe they should play the game in China or the USA so the rest of the world can see what our game has to offer when 2 of the powerhouses clash.

Aaron. f**king. Woods.

I guess I’ll still have weekends free in 2023.

At least in Sept/Oct for a few years yet, take advantage of cheaper holidays and flights

Maybe the NRL could show some innovation & introduce a trophy for this clash - THE JOINT VENTURE CUP.

Bloody hell! I think I would only pee into that from about 4 foot back.

I finally get to see what all the fuss was really about with Ponga and Mann, they needed 2 to flush the toilet properly !

You mean get rid of the evidence?

The A-league already plays for that trophy

 

[saintmar]

As someone has already mentioned we have nine players out either through suspension or injury, so you had to choose between Woods or Faama who would you choose? That's basically what it came down to.

Faama evey day

Sloan can play fullback and Ramsey on the wing would be ideal. Wingers play like fullbacks anyway and Ramsey will chime in and make plenty of dirty carries. But hey, that makes way too much sense. Hook will pick a guy who is not contracted over a potential future Saints first grader with a contract for the next couple of years.

I look at it the opposite. Sloan plays winger and roams Blacklock & Offiah style. Ramsey still learning at 1 and playing well so don't tinker with that.
