The NRL Season of 2016
-
We complain about Marshall, Kearns and Maaardo but they have nothing on Gould. What a prize piston wristed gibbon that guy is.

<p>Clearly not a Warriors fan I see?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>So let me guess Qld won? NSW's turn next week then Qld to thump then in the 3rd match?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>What is weird is that until seeing Sneak's post I didn't actually realise Origin was on this week. I live in Sydney. WTF.</p> -

<p>Gimme a cowboys vs broncos game and I'll watch it every week!</p> -
A grand total of 14 posts on an Origin game (15 now
).<br><br>
What's happened? <br><br>
It's just been meh even over here. -
<p>Used to watch it with the Mrs but we are both pretty meh about it this year. I think the over-hype in the past has kind of killed the excitement a bit. Every single thing that ever happens is fucking amazing apparently, which kind of takes away from the actual awesome things that do sometimes happen.</p>

<p>Mercifully, it was less than two minutes. I got 45 seconds in, and it peaked at "Thank you Peter"</p> -

<p>Yeah I don't usually tune in but thought I would this time as it could be on in the background while I worked. <strong>What a pile of shit.</strong></p>

<p>That's such an un-origin attitude Bones.....</p> -
<p>It does baffle me that kiwis with seriously fucken tenuous links to Australia ( aw mate, I went to the Gold coast for a long weekend 20 years ago, Carrrrrrrrrrrrnnnnnn you Marooooooons ) go so crazy and support Orjin.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Facebook feeds are extremely quiet today though.....what sounds like a shithouse game obviously has a lot to do with that.</p> -

<p>Just like EPL/NBA/NFL</p>

<p>It's not hard to pick a team and fully support them</p> -

Christ what a load of crap. How long was that pregame shit btw? Does anyone actually watch that?<br><br>
Apparently "people" are "outraged" by Thaidays virgin comments. Admittedly it was a pretty bizarre thing to say but who really cares. -

<p>Australian public must be thrilled they can get worked up and outraged again, they had to go days if not a week without some black fluffybunny who plays sport saying something shocking and appalling.</p> -
<p>I sort of enjoyed the game as it reminded me of what great tackling skills these guys have.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Sure the attacking options were poor but the way 13 ultra motivated defenders can bring down people every time is pretty cool. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>The Blues were by far the better team but just couldn't get it done even though their sets were far superior. I guess the Queensland spirit prevailed because the maroons were defending for ages and were exhausted but still for the last half hour they held the blue team out.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Not pretty game but pretty brutal in defines.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>That Greg Bird is a weird one - vile reputation, not an overly big guy but shit he hits hard head on. He's a niggly bastard but gets through a ton of tackles. I choose to dislike him but if he was in my team I'd consider him a "mischievous rogue" instead of the total fuckstick he appears to be.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Listening to commentators running the game down and hassling the officials as they do is just plain weird</p>
