The NRL Season of 2016
-
The best team won, no doubt about that, but fuck it would have been funny if Melbourne scored on one of those last two sets and won it all.
-
How hilarious. Storm would've won if Chambers knew how to pass. No wonder he didn't last long in rugby.
Chambers is a grub (along with the rest of them) so I'm loving the fact he cost it for them.
-
Shit game. Best last play in a final ever.
Best team won though, with half decent playmakers they win by 14.
-
Pity. I don't give a shit about the Storm, but I did want to see that useless fluffybunny Gallen lose again.
And I'll reiterate a point I've made countless times before; the skill level in league is fucking shite. The passing is crap. The backline moves are entirely predictable and telegraphed. And yet the donkeys still can't defend.

That's the first I've read about you making that point and you probably shouldn't make it again since it's a pretty fucken stupid point.

@Sneakdefreak I don't care how many times you've read or heard me make that point. The point still stands.

Stands as a pretty fucken stupid point. We agree.

@Sneakdefreak Don't take it so personal petal.

Good to see Chad Townsend win a NRL title. He was a good bloke in his time at the Warriors. Maloney, maybe not so much a good bloke, but three GFs and two championships now. He gets it done.
Luke Lewis just won the MOTM. Probably should have been Fifita but they didn't want him speaking.
-
@antipodean Nothing personal but at least the last sentence of your statement is fucken stupid

Bird was massive I thought and unlucky not to win MOTM IMO.

True he was massive, and with a damaged arm. Looks like Feki won't be named for the Kiwis - knee is buggered.

That sucks. He's in excellent form and a real handful coming out of your own end.

Townsend, Maloney, and Ennis were the reason the Sharks didn't have that put to bed early. The better side took far too long to win that game.

And yet someone is rating Ennis an 8 on news.com.au
League media/supporters have real troubled identifying the flaws in a winning team.

The best thing about that was Cameron Smith's concession speech, I thought he payed great tribute to team that finally won, when the Warriors finally win in 30 years time I hope the opposing captain is so gracious. Don't know why he has to be such a grub on the playing field though - same goes for Ennis I guess.
Anyway, I sat my fat ass down to watch the game at 7ish last night only to discover Foxtel don't have the final - all game live all year ... except for the final. So I had to wait until 9:30pm to watch a replay.
Anyway, back to the game, it was pretty average, although my leaguie mate (think Sneak x 10000) was telling me it was the greatest game ever but only the 3rd greatest grand final, so go figure. I was cheering for the Storm, but like with the Canes this year in the end I didn't mind as a team who have never won it made it over the line so that's good for their loyal supporters.
I'm still bemused that Fifita is a thing, the guy waddles and somehow evades everyone time and time again.

Good bloke, shit player, at least Maloney was a good player (aside from that last season) for the Warriors. How old is Luke Lewis? He doesn't look a day over 60. He's aged worse than Neil Back.
So I guess now we wait to see how many NZers suddenly turn up injured in the next few day to find out whether this years Four Nations is worth watching.
