Tohu Harris caps off a massive year getting in the Team of the year. Well done fella.

How did Nathan Cleary not win the Dally M? I see he only finished third.
Bit of a surprise. I don’t think Wighton is an undeserving winner given what he was able to do, but Cleary has stepped up his game and all fingers and toes crossed he can do the business on the weekend.

Fuck Nathan Cleary. Tough shit, you even finished behind a spud like "King Gutho".
In all reality, the Dally M is as bad as the fucking Brownlow now. Unless you play in 1, 6, 7, or maybe 9, you have to be unreal to win it. Individual honours in team games have never really sat right with me anyway
I really don't want the fucking Panthers to win this weekend. Super coach Cleary will conveniently have his overall dogshit record quietly swept away. Tigers fans will lose their shit.
I would rather Cam Smith went out with another flag, and it actually physically hurt to type that out. Maybe one more flag will be enough for that joint to blow itself up and come back to teh pack for once (but given their talent identification systems, that's unlikely).

Largely due to the success of others in the team, Jerome Luai ended up getting 17 points and even JFH took potential points.
There are some hard luck stories though in certain rounds as to who actually deserved to get the 3-2-1 in that round. Still its all subjective and adds to the theatre. I quite like that aspect of NRL and AFL. Sure its more about promoting the sport, but gives the players something extra to et recognition for.
Also RTS took captain of the year, so a double win for the warriors players who stayed

TEAMS
Panthers team: 1. Dylan Edwards 2. Josh Mansour 3. Brent Naden 4. Stephen Crichton 5. Brian To’o 6. Jarome Luai 7. Nathan Cleary 8. James Tamou 9. Apisai Koroisau 10. James Fisher-Harris 11. Viliame Kikau 12. Liam Martin 13. Isaah Yeo 14. Tyrone May 15. Kurt Capewell 16. Moses Leota 17. Zane Tetevano 18. Mitch Kenny 19. Dean Whare 20. Matt Burton 21. Spencer Leniu
Storm team: 1. Ryan Papenhuyzen 2. Suliasi Vunivalu 3. Brenko Lee 4. Justin Olam 5. Josh Addo-Carr 6. Cameron Munster 7. Jahrome Hughes 8. Jesse Bromwich 9. Cameron Smith 10. Christian Welch 11. Felise Kaufusi 12. Kenneath Bromwich 13. Nelson Asofa-Solomona 14. Brandon Smith 15. Tino Fa’asuamaleaui 16. Dale Finucane 17. Nicholas Hynes 18. Tom Eisenhuth 19. Paul Momirovski 20. Tui Kamikamica 21. Ryley Jacks
Both sides probably run out 1-17, Naden may get dropped again but who knows. Cant pick this one myself, but probably leaning towards the Storm, although Panthers winning streak has been incredibly impressive.
Relatively even at the TAB too, Storm at 1.70 and Panthers 2.25 -
@mariner4life yeah it's like quarterbacks, running backs, and wide receivers.

Burr is a loss, had a very good season
-
yeah I thought so too, apparently Payten very happy securing him as well. He knows better than anyone else his professionalism not just on field ability.

I straight up don't get that, the dude is an on field plodder, if he was a Kiwi he wouldn't be rated by anyone but he's an Aussie so he's supposedly good because we're on the endless search for the next Luck, Price orCampion.
Now that I've said that he'll likely become a superstar for the Cowboys.

Cam Smith and Richie McGod closer than originally thought? Its fox sports so cant take too seriously, but interesting relationship nonetheless.
-
@Nepia yeah I agree. Too often we’d be on attack with a good head of steam and the ball would fall to him. No offload, no big metres. Just a quick play the ball. I’ll give him that. He got to his feet quickly.
The stats say it all. He was average as fuck.

I see a picture of the GOAT and guy that plays league 🎣

Pissing down in Sydney, not sure who that favours , traditionally I might think Melbourne, but this team has been less methodical and Far more attacking than usual , scoring lots of long range tries with pace out wide and 2 running halves .
Cleary might have the best kicking game out there
-
Penalty try.

Gee the Storm are pushing the pass

That’s how they have been playing this year so be interesting to see if they have to play conservative
