Who are the best sides to watch?

[StormHi]

Game against rabbits Melbourne's first try how many hands did it travel through boring??? Pigs ass it's boring Jesus loudly I like you but damn you are stuck in the past Melbourne have been playing some really exciting scrambling end to end expansive footy this year.

 

[BDR]

Melbourne and Manly?? You are taking the piss.

Melbourne are the one team I generally go out of my way to avoid watching. Wrestling, grubby, moaning for penalties. They represent everything wrong with the game today. Manly less so, but they don't play a very attractive brand of football at all.

Melbourne and Manly play great footy

 

[Son of Minto]

Uhh when Melbourne are on they're great to watch.

 

[Sans Souci Sainter]

Dragons footy ( *burp* ) is good in patches. 2 minute (*burp*) patches.

 

[Inglis#3]

Storm, Rabbitohs & Cowboys.

Whoever says the Storm are boring don't respect good football. The set plays which the Big Three formulate can only be marvelled at.

So Loudy, have you found the game today exciting.

I sure as hell have

 

[Manu Vatuvei]

I think this year the Warriors have been pretty entertaining but at times in previous years our excitement value has been very overrated.

To me it's exciting when teams spread the ball with precision and the Warriors have rarely been able to do that consistently down the years. At our best there has been a lot of ad lib stuff but I would've preferred sweeping movements executed properly tbh.

The reliance on ad lib actually makes us one of the more boring attacking teams when we're camped in the opposition 20. Lots of one-out stuff and clueless dithering.

Roosters

The current Warriors team benefits from having Johnson, Hurrell, Vatuvei and Mateo in particular imo (although this year Mateo hasn't been used that effectively). Johnson does plenty of sensational stuff, Hurrell is close to the best guy in the comp for running over 5 blokes to score and is fast enough to score long range tries as well, and Vatuvei is similar, a bit faster but probably not quite as freakishly destructive as Hurrell at his best. Mateo provides the freaky offloads and trick shots that you don't expect from many other guys his size.

As far as coherent, slick attacking football? Not so much. But we have enough individuals who can combine out of nowhere to score unconventional but exciting team tries.

Lol..played the nationality card. Classy...
C'mon Strat you can do better than that...

You can't really expect anything less from a halfwit like him mate.

So Loudy, have you found the game today exciting.

I sure as hell have

Just got home and i found it as exciting as all f**k :lol:

 

[Jason Maher]

Dragons easily. Plenty of entertainment for anyone who's a fan of Benny Hill.

 

[Cerne Abbas Giant]

Hit up after hitup and endless grapples are hardly gripping. The Storm are only exciting when Slater is in space.
.

Have you been hiding under a rock? To say Melbourne are grapplers is stereotyping. Times have changed. The Eels were guilty of grappling, slowing the play of the ball, comical defensive errors and fading out in the the last 30 mins.

Best teams to watch are teams who pull off set plays. Melbourne have it in spades.

Hurrell has to be the most exciting player in the NRL at the moment.. His highlight reel will be insane in 5 years time.

 

[simostorm]

Storm, easts and Souths.

 

[magpie4ever]

As much as I hate to say it, but Melbourne - they play deep; similar to the sides of the 70s and 80s.

 

[Noa]

Well it ain't parra that's for sure.

 

[de$$ie]

Warriors, Melbourne, Manly and Canterbury.

PNG go alright too.

 

[POPEYE]

Most exciting game I watched this year was Tonga v Samoa . . . 80 minutes of fascination

 

[ek999]

Parramatta. When they play you know the opposition is going to play some good attacking football and score a shitload of points...
