I hated the main comms man last night. His inability or more likely, his lack of trying to pronounce pacific island names was the worst I have heard in a while. It was shockingly bogan.
I was cursing out his name in the first 5 minutes when he made that ridiculously nonchalant play in goal. But Hiku ended up have a blinder.
The pairing of Green and Nikorima was really polished last night. The short kicking from Green was one of his best for the warriors.
RTS is the best fullback in the game. I don't give a shit what the rest world thinks about Tedesco. If Roger and James switched teams I think Roger would easily win the Dally M again. Not sure Tedesco could do it with the Warriors.
Katoa is an absolute star.
All that said. I thought the Cowboys were a shit outfit last night and we let in some weak tries. Taumalolo looked like he's lost a lot of muscle mass while away from the game and only ran for 113m(thats not bad but not good by his standards). Holmes going off did them no favours. I like that the Warriors have come to play and play well but the 2 teams we have beaten were shit IMO.

@raznomore I was agreeing with you.

I think I heard Kemp say he is still recovering from an injury.

And the storm are 4 from 5 after pretty much everyone including myself predicted them to drop away .
Cameron Smith is a marvel ,most nrl games in history, He would be excused from falling away now , but keeps on performing , most consistent player I’ve ever seen

His comments post game about them needing to adjust were actually very interesting. He said their structured style actually prevented them from taking opportunities in this quicker game.

I only saw the last 15 mins but the Storm got lucky with 2 50/50 ref decisions. Firstly the penalty for the high tackle and then the Klemmer tackle off the ball. I don't think they changed the result but made the final score more flattering. Great try and strength by Brandon Smith.

A bulldogs' players' kid goes to the school where some staff member tested positive for 2020 Ebola so their game is off until tomorrow night

Surely the Roosters took over that mantle years ago.

Sure, the Dogs aren't great, but Jesus the Roosters are frightening.
