NRL 2023 + Internationals

@bayimports said in NRL 2023:
Our centres have been battling out of their weight class most of this year I think.
Don’t forget the kicking metres that SJ normally provides
Think other teams might be down by more by now though
We lost our 6/7 combination, that's a huge hole to fill
-
Losing our halves combination especially a Dally M candidate was never going to be good.
If Penrith had lost Cleary I think we we would’ve been able to stay close and even snag it. His influence on everything Penrith does is huge. Such is the role of SJ and we don’t have any one in the broader squad that is even in the same postcode.

Well I got visit Penrith, less mullets than I expected and a massive fancy Westfield, but that was about it.
The Warriors were pedestrian, the reffing is a dodgy as ever when seeing it live, and this little kid near us kept saying that stupid saying and every time he said it the Warriors stuffed up, see I was right all along.
TBH serious I think this was probably Webster's worst night as a coach in terms of decision making. We had two props, two. We started the second half with no props on the field. Our back three (and Pompey) were essentially props working it out from our end every single time. IIRC Curran didn't come on until near the 60th minute but our three hooker/utility forwards were rotating with our props and Egan. If SJ is out again they need to bring Volkman in, the balance is completely out when Walker isn't used off the bench.
The hot donuts were really nice and the trip via the train was really easy and fairly quick.

Fascinating match unfolding in Newcastle as the short priced favourites are behind by 10 at the half. I don’t think anyone likes Sticky but his team is aiming up out there. They did have the wind behind them but played well in the first 40 minutes.
I would expect Newcastle to fight back in second 40, but boil over is on the cards if Raiders maintain this effort
-
Newcastle have woken up
-
Going to be interesting extra time, great come back by Raiders
-
Yep, entertaining to watch although I am not sure how the biter remained on the field with those marks as clear as day.
Knights move on to NZ
-
Great game, one of the finals classics. Still couldn't believe Wighton got away with a blatant bite at Gamble.
Great performance from the Raiders considering no one gave them a hope in hell before the game.
-
That was as good a game of football as ypu will ever watch. Just brilliant from both teams
-
they are not dead yet, anyone who has watched many warriors games will know, we can only make those comments after final whistle
