the last 3 minutes last week will be soul destroying so we will see how Webby handles it i guess.
Egan back for the Warriors is the biggest in of the weekend.
Funnily enough the quality of the Storm try means no one is talking about us. Newcastle are back in the gun, AOB back as favourite for first coach sacked, and their recruitment over the last 12-18 months looking awful as they've bought a bunch of guys they can no longer fit in the team. And they've got Melbourne this week.
Bulldogs v Titans has epic cripple fight written all over it.

I know Egan is named, but I am not convinced he is available yet. The difference he adds is significant, AFB goes into beast mode when he plays.
Newcastle have a confused spine and now potentially a half back who wont play reggies because of the AOB decision. Nor have they really resolved the left edge hole left by Fitzgibbon. The guy wasn't the greatest second rower, but could really hit a hole. KPP or Lucas haven't really stood up yet and now they are without Marzhew this week as well.
Jason Demetriou also enters the chat for first coach sacked, but the quality of his team should allow him to escape that.
On the Storm what is happening with NAS?, rumours are Bellamy wants him out, penalty magnet for sure, but a massive unit
I still think the Bulldogs are not that bad, the first 60 minutes were tough from them, and then they gave up. They are tougher than last years version I think. Gold Coast have a lot to prove though..Will be the most likely game I skip this week lol
-
I still can't believe the money the Tigers have given Luai. He is not the guy to put your club on his back
-
Fuuuuck
No one is beating the fluffybunnies
And this team is chock full of little fluffybunnies full of mouth because they never fucking lose
I fucking hate Penrith
-
@mariner4life Not much else they could do in fairness to them. They simply can't attract players there and when you have to fill 95% of your salary cap, they don't have much else they can do.
The Dogs recruitment on the other hand....
-
The chin in overdrive!

@bayimports said in NRL 2024:
The chin in overdrive!
The dick riding from the commentators was nauseating
I watched the first half on 9 and I thought John's was bad
But jesus Ennis wanted to gob him off
-
Yeah they don’t hold back their love..
If anything given Walsh’s early exit, makes for a great rematch later
-
I wouldn't worry too much if I were Brisbane with all the reshuffling that went on. About of the tries went through Piakura defending out of position.
-
FYI Egan out
-
fuck!
-
gee what a surprise, Walsh's face is fractured, he has to drive back to Brisbane, and he'll be out for a fair while.
May not charged for the collision.
Two Panthers opponents in two weeks get their faces caved in for a grant total of zero weeks suspension.
Yes, this was a head clash, and i'm pretty big on footy accidents happen. But May sort of launched himself forward in a motion that even if he didn't crush his head, would have resulted in nothing more than a shoulder-charge. I'm a little surprised it's been chucked straight out.
-
For me (trying to look at it through league and not my rugby eyes) it was a complete accident, however if you blow a penalty for it, then surely something greater occurs and should have been at least put on report and reviewed later.
I don't buy into Penrith being a protected species, but putting on my warriors jersey for a second, I think if it was a warrior we would be asking if 2-4 weeks was appropriate
-
it was on report. report dismissed
-
wow, yeah find that hard to believe, will be interesting to see how the ref boss justifies this
-
Dylan Walker out too.. watch out for that banana skin
-
yeah this is now outside banana skin territory, i have the Raiders as favourites
-
+8.5 Canberra @ 1.85 looking good to me as well
-
Two big opportunities failed to be converted, shame they look so good in full flight. Conversely Raiders just grind shit out so well. If this comes down to a a small margin, im not sure we tough this out especially with no AFB.
DWZ was a journeyman fullback, seriously one of the most complete wingers in the game, good on him for that change, amazing
Big second half incoming
