NRL 2025

I love that we are second on the table. I love that we are 7-2 I love that we have beaten the likes of Manly, Dragons, Knights, Broncos, Roosters - teams that I cannot stand. I love that we have a points difference of +1 and are sitting 2nd, tells me this team has some ticker to win those close ones.
It’s our y…..

while St George are not a great side, they are actually reasonably hard to beat. That win on saturday was a sneaky good one
We went up early to that terrible score line
We were away from home
The home side came roaring back
The way we set the field goal up was so no-nonsense. -
JFH back for the Warriors.
With both TMM and Healey named on the bench, I expect one to drop out of the 17 before kick off, preferably for RTS, meaning Capewell can strengthen what looks like a weak bench at the moment.
While I’m enjoying the close wins, my heart rate would appreciate a more comfortable win this week… a good start to that would be shutting down the Dolphins dangerous outside backs.

listening to the Sports Breakfast this morning and all the nuffies ringing in to tell Laurie who to pick. The main thing it did is ram home how fucking stacked NSW are this year, and their biggest thing is who to leave out.
Edwards, Tedesco, Papi, Turbo, Latrell, Best, Lomax, To'o, Chichton. 9 of the best players in the comp for 5 spots.
I can't even pick a Qld backline. We need Hammer to play two positions. We need to drag DCE out of rep retirement. I know Qld do this shit every year, hell Mal used to try it with the greatest Origin team of all time, but this year is seriously depressing.
-
Tedesco, Kiraz, Olakau'atu, Papi, Turbo and W,Egan, Hynes will all likely miss which is impressive.
Capewell may end up having to be in the Qld squad purely for experience due to form and injuries this year. I assume Ponga has to play fullback just to allow Hammer to play centre. Will be interesting selections incoming. I am going to assume Lindsay Collins (who only comes back this week) and Horse will be the starting front row. Nanai, Cotter pick themselves, Gilbert better as a middle but poor as an edge.. Not sure if Plath will be fit to back up Grant. A few old timers could be rolled out -
god i hope you are wrong on just so many of those calls. If Capewell gets picked i am not even watching.
Bro Tino is starting. Cotter probably the other prop but his form is shit. Hopefully Gilbert plays in the middle. I would pick Horse, he is nuts and you need that. Tino Gilbert and Carrigan is nice starting middle to take on the NSW metre eaters in Hass, May (if selected) and Barnett.
The NSW back row is fucking loaded as well. It's not fucking fair!!!

Sadly his catching under the high ball wasn't.

The very definition of rocks and diamonds

SKD 2.0 appropriately at the roosters

Newcastle call board meeting Monday, Origin time a great time to sack a coach and it get lost in other media hype. AOB 1.01 favourite for first coach goone now

Long overdue.

Kalyn Ponga obviously couldn't be fucked saving his job this year
-
Wahs have had a lot of luck as well, just terrible calls in general
Just be happy we are not at the cursed 14-0
