NRL 2024
-
there is better hype than a grand final
-
Spoonbowl delivering reserve grade shit everywhere
-
40mins away from three in a row!
-
We've got this in the bag.
Imagine throwing an intercept to a bloke that had a leg transplant from a midget.
I blame Wests.
-
The Tigers are fucking terrible
I love Benji but...

Shipping 54 points in a battle for the spoon. With 9 minutes to go still... yikes!
Leaving nothing to chance.
-
60 points. 60 fucking points.
This is a new low. They keep finding them.
Fold the club.
-
Fucking hell. League players can tackle but they can't defend. Haven't watched more than a few minutes this year but nothing changes.
Crichton stands still, then runs thru a huge gap created by lazy rabbits who switch off once the ball gets 10 metres away from them. Wingers can't count.
This Va'a kid is monstrously big
-
At the risk of being that guy, I really do think that the Tigers aren't far away from being competitive again, and I hope they do. I think they have some good young kids coming through, and whether you like the guy or not, Jerome Luai will make a huge difference next year imo.
Never been the biggest fan of Benji, but I do think that they'd be better off sticking by him.
-
@African-Monkey the margins are pretty thin at this level. An extra year of experience together could be the difference.
I'm not convinced on Luai. Seems to benefit from Cleary and a good squad. Seems like a bit of a flog.

I'm probably the only Luai fan out there, but he guides Penrith around well to many victories when Cleary takes his usual 8-12 week injury break in the middle of every season.
Aren't Penrith at about an 80% win rate when Cleary doesn't play?
I think Penrith will find the going harder next season if Cleary takes large chunks of the season off.
-
Thank fuck the regular season is over. Everyone except Melbourne are limping in to finals. Ok, i guess the Sharks smoking Manly yesterday was something.
There are some deeply flawed teams in the finals, so it will be interesting to see who gets hot.
-
For the regular season, Brisbane far and away the most disappointing side this year. Losing a Grand Final to Penrith is club destroying apparently. And to right the ship they are bringing in (checks notes) T-Baz?? What the? So when you fire Kev 10-games in to next year you are giving one of the worst head coaches of all time the gig for 4 months? lol

-
What. A. Game!!!
That last try by manly will be on highlight reels for years
-
very little of any surprise this weekend.
The Panthers torched the Roosters early and then just went through the motions to keep themselves healthy.
Melbourne torched the Sharks who are massive pretenders.
The Cowboys got a bit lucky against the Knights.
Manly actually have a good enough team to make the GF. I expect them to beat the Roosters, and i reckon they'll give Melbourne a fright.But, as we have known for a long long time, it's a Melbourne v Penrith GF.
-
The knock out games were tight and could have gone either way. But the others easy to predict and nothing at this stage looks like rocking the Storm v Panthers GF
