Surely that's a choke?

[Poupou Escobar]

WTF is wrong with you people? How can you hate the Tigers?

They're an exciting team to watch, with some real personality players. They capture the public's imagination and they're one of the clubs that will help the NRL get their big TV deal.

Also they're not one of these clubs from exclusive parts of the country (Manly, Easts) or that have a capital city all to themselves (Brisbane, Melbourne).

They're great for the game. I don't see what you're all so bitter about.

 

[Red&BlackBear]

That's a choke of North Sydney scale, I'm proud. Wonder if Robbie will still serve that artiChoke salad he makes so well at his restaurant? Tigers will bounce back next year, they still have great players.

Warriors had no right to win that, considering how badly they were reffed out of the game.

 

[Bobby DIGital]

It was just a damn good game.

If the Warriors win the Grand Final in a yawnion world cup year, and the all blacks choke again....that will be pretty f*ckin grand for league in NZ.

Every true league fan who's team's been eliminated, should be jumpin on the Warriors bandwagon for that reason.

Hi did the play the full 80, but he became ineffective after 60. A good coach would have seen it and given him a spell, Sheens didn't and it was a massive factor in them losing that game imo.

Because Sheens would rather play an outside back on the bench than a proper utility and give the back 5-10 minutes at the end of the game (effectively playing the rest with 16 men). Add to the fact that Gibbs on lasted 15 minutes and we were 2 forward short. Sheens has been paranoid about losing a back to injury ever since we lost 2 of them (Tuiaki and Ryan?) against Parra in 2009 in a make or break game. A massive pet hate of mine, right up there with turning centres into backrowers.


That being said, congratulations to the Warriors, defintely deserved the W last night. They did an amazing job to turn it around in such a short period of time after a massive loss. Maloney especially really stood up and outplayed Benji. Good luck against Melbourne (I hope you guys beat them).

You realise to rest Farrah will cost 2 interchanges.
You only get 10 if you didnt know. These 10 interchanges are usually allready allocated before kick off. Unless there is some sort of injury.

Been to balmain lately mate?

lol probably, but most people think broncos will win anyway so they're kidding themselves if they say dragons choked purely because they lost

 

[Poupou Escobar]

I used to live there.

I don't think many league fans live in Balmain these days. And because it's all residential there's not too much corporate money there either.

I've been to Campbelltown though - Wests Tigers and all that. How about you?

 

[Loudstrat]

I texted my mate to get him to put Robert Lui's missus in to Witness Protection for her own sake...

:lol:

for sure. benji runs it on the last with three minutes to go and knocks on at halfway when the opposition are making 60-70 metres a set with ease?

love the tigers, but they got 99% of the calls last night, and they'll have to wear it on this one.

Benji's not a big game player IMHO - that said geez he got crap ball. Benji also has to be at the centre of everything they do in attack. Needs more Lui in those situations.

''The fact they kept going for the two points and went for a field goal before half-time gave us confidence. Maybe they thought they were going to win 13-12 but we knew we had points in us.''

Maybe Robbie should change his restaurant's name to 'Karma'.​

You sook. Karma for what - making a harmless comment?

You better hope your mob get up tonight when 50 000 geniuss will be "doing it for Locky" and your coach is thinking "New car sool. New car sool" with a limp wristed comment like that!

Agreed.

Although it was nice to see the Eels get up last night!

It was just a damn good game.

Not hard. If Saints lose, it's Brisbane, Manly or Melbourne as a choice. It's like "What do you want for dinner love? Piss, sh*t or vomit?"

Been to balmain lately mate?

Yes. Been to Airds?

I'm expecting this too Apey. But its a beautiful day outside. We are still some chance. There is no way that the refs could possibly be as bad as last night (I actually believe that they could) and Tigers fans have disappeared off the face of the Earth and back out of my life.

I'm not generally petty and can cop losing, but those merkins were so f**king cocky, they deserve to be derided and their fair weather fans can bite me.

Yep. Regardless of tonights result, I'll still be able to smile and if I'm feeling down, I'll just watch a replay of the last 10 minutes of that game and especially Robbie Farahs pained face afterwards.

Congrats to the Warriors on an unbelievably good victory. They can go all the way from here.

lol, c'mon Loudy, you can't see anything slightly bitter in his comment? Of all the 2 numbers he could use he chose those.

THe guy hates Saints. His tears sustain me.

Yes. Been to Airds?

:lol:

 

[Flapper]

Newsflash: Wests fans were unbelievably disrespectful to some Saints fans (defending Premiers and World Champions) after the game last Friday.

Karma.

I don't recall saying anything to any St George Illawarra fans last week.

But whatever. I don't know when we became so despised, but we lost. Everyone wanted us to lose anyway judging by what I can read. So go celebrate our loss.

Congratulations to New Zealand, I hope they go far, even if I personally don't thing they will. They're a team with flair and personality and I like that. Unlike the bitter St George fans (not all of them, just the ones going LULZ CHOKE KARMA BITCH LULZ), I don't mind wishing the best of those who bested us.

I'm expecting a loss tonight as well but the sight of Farah, head down, crying again, just made my weekend perfect.

 

[Vic Mackey]

Lol seriously why are saints fans loving this so much?

It's pretty sad, they seem to hate the tigers more thenthey love saints.

I couldn't care less who wins fom here on in, chances are I won't even watch another game this year.

 

[God-King Dean]

I'm a Dragons fan & live in Campbelltown.

My hatred is a God-given right.

 

[Vic Mackey]

Fair enough, if I lived in that shithole I'd hate the local team too

 

[God-King Dean]

Could be worse.

Could live in Hurstville.
