Not a fan of the Roosters but I thought they did a real number on the Storm tonight with their defence and were impressive.
Tedesco is a hell of a player.

TBH, I think they should have put the Storm away a lot earlier and by a lot more. The Storm probably need to play Cameron Smith at half next year if he stays on again. If he's going to be the key playmaker then have him in that role and let Brandon Smith have a go as a running hooker.

Luke Keary, in an absolute shock, is clear to play the GF despite deliberately whacking Kaufusi in the face, and pulling out a clump of his hair
Perhaps the NRL owe Sam Burgess an apology?

Assuming there is a whole lot of sarcasm there as surely it wasn't a shock....

positively dripping darling...
I'm actually happier about this NRL final than the AFL one. The only reason i hate the Roosters is that they obviously operate on a different financial plane that everyone else. Other than that, they are reasonably likable. Gun players, no out and out grubs, just a good footy side. I even, whisper it quietly, quite like a few of their players. They have a fucking good coach too.
The Raiders are a good story, and as much as Ricky fucks me off, with his whinging and whining, he's been easier to take while they have sucked. Beyond that, he's been entertaining, what with the blokes hurtin' in the sheds and all.
Please just let it be a great GF decided late by a bit of skill.

Agree - although I'm a roosters supporter so as much as I want a good final, I want a roosters win.
The quality of some of the football the play is outstanding eh
yep.
Although part of me wishes Latrell Mitchell got transported to the early 90s, so when he runs in really late to a fight, to push and gob off, he runs in to the end of a fist.
I'll probably go for the underdog if i am honest, but if the Roosters play well and win, I'm not going to be disappointed.

@mariner4life TBH I’ve never noticed him doing that more than other players and he seems like a good bloke off the field.
At any rate Manu has been their best centre this year.
I don’t care who wins this really, maybe Canberra as it’s been ages between drinks - but Ricky Stuart.

It’s the granny maaaaaaate. Unless you are a warriors player or a kiwi player and there was a test match the following weekend - there weren’t going to be any suspensions.
Keary should’ve been given one or two.

Like both teams but I would like to see the Raiders win. Pretty cool that Cronk gets another GF after being munted last year.
-
I live in Canberra for most of the year so I'd love to see them lose.

Still bitter about 1989 eh?

Dally M last night, won by Tedesco which seems pretty fair to me.
Fullbacks and hookers the key players in the game now?
And on a more basic note, the Dally M and the Brownlow prove once again the AFL guys are still a mile in front in the "hotter missus'" stakes

Warriors: Roger Tuivasa-Sheck 22, Blake Green 9, Ken Maumalo 7, Chanel Harris-Tavita 3, Jazz Tevaga 3
Pretty fair reflection really. We are the Roger show and fuck all else.

So no other wings got more than 7? Ken was Dally M wing right? Or are other positions calculated differently?

Havent been able to find the full list but all my bets (Payne Haas Top 5 and 10, top sharks player, top titans and top roosters sans teddy) have been paid out.
Where did you get that list from @mariner4life ?
