How can you tell it's Friday night? The Broncos are playing, and getting the benefit of some suspect reffing to win a game

Widdop resigns with Dragons for four years. St George is now committing a ton of cap space to Widdop/Hunt.

Bunnies supporters are going mental on bookface.

Just watched the highlights. The Milford-held-up-over-the-line-no-wait-you-can-now-throw-the-ball-out-when-on-the-ground-try was a shocker, but to follow it up with a Milford-knock-on-oh-just-have-a-droppie-anyway-drop-goal makes you suspect something else is at play.

Gubb out, Big Ben Matulino in for tonight's game.
-
Keep ur eye on big Nelson ,
Really coming on , turning into a beast ,
must be getting close to kiwi selection in the starting 17

20-14 to the Storm. Good game, some positives to take from it for the Warriors.
-
Some thoughts:
- It's official - Warriors confirm that Ben Matulino has signed with Wests for 2018. Time to roll out the welcome mat for James Graham.
- Another classic game but Warriors ran out of juice in the final 15 minutes. Warriors will win on the return leg.
- Although a loss, the Warriors are only two points out of the top 8. And some teams (Dragons etc) will tumble out quickly.
- Luke played well but Roache isn't the best fit with him. Tevaga would be and should be.
- Although Matulino is leaving, Gavet is doing his best impersonation of Mutts. Great catch in the air too.
- Don't care what anyone says - that Melbourne wing was out.
- Where is that Wellington Hurricanes PR guy who was fapping himself to death over Nelson Asofa-Solomona in 2016? NAS was MVP tonight and should be in line for a Kiwis jersey, which will piss off WHPR guy (fap, fap)
- Shaun Johnson was laying in the hits tonight. Smacked Slater around a few times.
- Ken Maumalo = mediocre. Lacks the speed and power to be a wing in the NRL. Chanze Nichol-Klostad or Tui Lolohea.
- Quick turn around this week, Roosters on Sunday. Expect a few guys to suffer on the turn around (Kata in particular who left the field injured)
-
Suliasi Vunivalu apparently isn't eligible for the Kiwis which is a huge shame. We have the forwards to match the Aussie pack but not the backs to live with their backline. He would have definitely been a great addition to the Kiwis backline.
They'll find a way to make him a Queenslander....
-
storms feeder team plays in Queensland , so if he is naturalised as Australian that may be the case
-

16. Josh Papalii (Raiders)
17. Shannon Boyd (Raiders) -
Good team that. JT won't be rushed back by the Cowboys, so will probably have to prove fitness in camp. Dugan at centre is a weakness i reckon.
In NRL signing news, i notice Dane Gagai is holding out on re-signing with the Knights. He would be a good pick up as i think we are a bit light in the centre/wing spots.
