NRL 2017

[Nepia]

Damn, I just sat down to watch and have realised the flippin game is on Ch9. I don't have free to air TV.

It's not even livestreamed by CH9 either.

So, watch the 10pm replay or find a stream? I think I'll wait and watch the replay.

[Gunner]

Gee Fifita is a fat fuck isn't he!

Aussie with a very un-Aussie mistake early in the tackle count.

[Gunner]

After a promising start by the Kiwis, Oz score as per script after back to back to back sets.

That is the difference right there, we had two opportunities to force line drop outs early on but both kicks were waaay over cooked.

[Gunner]

Fuck sakes, Oz with a 95m intercept try now

[KiwiMurph]

Rubbish start Kiwis. Not a very high quality game so far.

[Gunner]

We HAVE to score next or she's game over, the Kiwis don't do comebacks.

[Damo]

It's good that they're forcing repeat sets, but unfortunately we don't really look like scoring.

[Gunner]

The ref isn't allowing any shitty slowing down in the tackle tactics that we see in the NRL every week.

Good to see.

Meanwhile, we've had a good period on attack but couldn't get across the line.

[kiwiinmelb]

Australia look a better drilled side under Mal's coaching

[Gunner]

@kiwiinmelb no surprise when you consider his reign with Queensland.

My god that was woeful defence, fat Thaiday strolls through the line, next play they score.

Fuck we're shit.

Game over

[KiwiMurph]

Bugger all intensity from the Kiwis. Looks like a preseason Warriors team.

[Bovidae]

I turned the TV off. Same old shit from the Kiwis!

[Gunner]

And the foodgates are opening by the looks.

No try, but you know you're in trouble when second rowers are tearing you up out wide.

@Bovidae said in NRL 2017:

Oh I'm confused, who are we watching?

[kiwiinmelb]

this is woeful

[Gunner]

Embarrassing. I'm going to bed.

[kiwiinmelb]

Things not looking good for kidwell ,

Not sure if it has anything to do with coaching , but it's gone downhill since he took over

[Sneakdefreak]

The Kiwis don't have any bite in them with Kidwell at the helm, guys like Taumalolo and Proctor are just trying to avoid injury for the next NRL round.

My money is on Stephen Kearney becoming head coach for the RLWC at the end of the year, with a new head coach in 2019 (probably Stacey Jones).

[Gunner]

@kiwiinmelb not sure what the problem is.

If you listen to any commentator before the game, they kept saying this is a top Kiwi side 'on paper'.....

On paper they're right, in reality they're fucking dreaming.

Don't know what the issue is, but 90% of the time we get made to look silly no matter who's in the coaches box.

[Stargazer]

Stopped watching. Going to have a look on MySky whether the women were any better against the Ozzies. If not, the lights will go out here as well.
