NRL 2023 + Internationals

@bayimports mate, i am pretty far from making September plans yet.
But what's different about this team is, we look actually fit, and thus there is no late fade out. And when things go wrong they don't drop their bundle, in fact they don't change their approach. There looks complete buy-in to the plan. Early wins definitely help that, but what ever Webster is saying is sticking.
The huge concerns are, the edge defense is awful. Those early overlaps yesterday were park football standard. Guys jamming in and not trusting the inside defender, not coming forward to pressure the pass, and the Sharks ran in touch tries. And it would be nice not to have to chase the scoreboard every week.
When the whips are cracking i don't think we are a top 4 side, but i am starting to think we are definitely the 7-12 side we have looked so far. And that exceeds my expectations with this roster.
If SJ gets hurt, the equation may change massively. And who can honestly say they thought that would be a reality this year? -
Finucane facing 3-4 and Niukore 2-3 match bans at the judiciary for hip drops. Watching live, I was surprised at the binning of both. Watching replays looks like both guilty of an action although surprised at grade 2

On a wet night in Melbs, the Roosters did miss Tedesco tonight. They were rubbish.

Their halves are shit
And cheese is so dar below Harry Grant it's not funny
Really good by Melbourne though. Where do they keep finding the players? How good is meaney going?

It’s also the coaching at Melbourne. If Daine Lawrie was their fullback we would also be saying how good is that young kid. Meaney playing well, probably ends up on Warbricks wing in a couple of weeks
Roosters had a seriously off night, even Manu didn’t really fire. Cheese didn’t fire a shot. When he had those games in Melbourne, Bellyache used to tear shreds off him.
How good is Grant and Munster though!

I really thought the amount of experience they lost in one off season would finally take its toll and it was starting to look that way .
But all of a sudden, the new faces seem to be embracing Bellamy’s systems, may not be the end after all .

Bunker scrubs a Warriors try, then a minute later Knights are in.
Fucking Knights getting the bounce of the ball tonight.
And the no try, for obstruction. The guy who was obstructed has a 0% chance of stopping the try, fucking nonsense.
Sounds like the NRL are making sure to bury us tonight
-
That was a rubbish call on the no try. “Peeling off” to go to the tackle…that is at least 10-15 metres away. Get stuffed.
And as an aside, Frizell is a dirty player. Should’ve been penalised for two high cheap high shots.

The talented Frizzell is killing us

Some very smart footy getting repeat sets and putting the pressure on the Knights.
12-0 Warriors in the second half.

Boomfa from SJ
