    SJ copped a head clash after setting up the try. He looks gone for the night

    completely accidental, SJ just looked bad lol

    Yeah a really unfortunate situation where the Raiders player turned his back and SJ’s face collected his shoulder.

    Man we are tearing it up.

    Beating the Raiders in Canberra is one of the most satisfying wins in all of sport

    watching a reporter ask Ricky about Crokers 300 played this week and not last week will be priceless

    we lose two big bodies for a couple of weeks I think, both Barnett and Niukore have history unfortunately, even low grade will see weeks on side line..pity as both have been very good

    @ACT-Crusader That was a brilliant intercept. Great anticipation.

    Amazing 2nd half from the Warriors.

    Best I’ve seen them play in a bloody long time.

    Love the way they go about their work!

    The win of a good side

    Weather the early storm. Defend Defend Defend when it's going against you.
    And then when the possession evens up, put them away.

    Huge victory. Stoked

    it was a weekend that saw two teams eliminated from Premiership contention, as the Dolphins got hammered by a rampant Manly, and the Storm absolutely flogged the Sharks.

    You can write the Roosters off too, despite technically still being alive

    The only teams that can win the comp are Penrith, Brisbane, a fully fit Souths, and a firing-on-all-cylinders Melbourne.
    A Penrith threepeat is still the safe bet.

    jesus, i just looked at the ladder

    Penrith are conceding 11.5 points a game! that's with a 9-4 record!
    The NRL media desperately want to make people believe Nathan Cleary is a generational talent, but this is why they are going to win 3 comps straight. Nathan doesn't play and they still fucking hammer the Roosters.
    Penrith have an unbelievable pack, and their defense is incredible. Cleary has the easiest halfback job in the league. Imagine going in to a game knowing you only need 12 points to win, and your defense will probably earn you half of those?

    Injury enforced changes for Qld for Game 2

    Coates in for Cobbo
    Nanai in for Gilbert
    Fotuaika in for Arrow

    AJ Brimson and Corey Horsburgh the emergencies

    I don't think those stats prove Cleary isn't up there, but it does show how good they are across the park. He does provide big plays for them in big matches and I don't consider playing the current Roosters team as one of those teams. He is generational yet? Very debatable for sure. He will win more prems for sure which says a lot about him and his team, but I get the point he really hasn't consistently proven it at Origin or international level.

    Top 8 and therefore premiership still wide open, you still only need to click for finals though, although it helps if you're in the top 4, but momentum really important. Some of those teams lurking have enough talent to win even if currently still outside. Not sure on Eels now with no Dylan Brown.

    Coates is a good replacement, although not the same x factor. Nanai needs to lift his game, but other Cowboys have, so potentially can get his head right, but to be honest I don't think NSW would fear that selection though. Big Mo Fo is a good selection, looking forward to seeing how he plays

    Someone I'm suprised never gets a mention for Origin these days is Phillip Sami. I think he's a much better player than Coates.
