POST GAME [Round 9, 2026] - Broncos vs Roosters

Mariner suffered acute compartment syndrome and needed surgery last night. FFS these fellas can't catch a break.

How the **** did he get back onto the field?

Oh shit !
I saw him get the cork early . Then get his thigh strapped .

He was in position to clean up the kick that led to the try . But couldn`t accelerate . That`s when Arthars replaced him . To stay warm and come back was toughness . Respect Deine .


Compartment syndrome means a long term recovery I reckon . The surgery opens up a lot of muscles .
 
I think Reyno digs into the line a bit more, which is fine if he was a running threat, but it takes a bit of time/space from Walsh especially when the other team is never offside.

Duffy does too but can threaten to break the line .
I noticed more than once on sweep plays he was very close to being tackled and there was contact after he passed the ball . Which tells me he is comiting defenders . Keiren Foran was famous for passing late .
Mid career Reynolds was very good at it too . Not so much these days . Dummying to kick is his go to now .

Duffy can goal kick and has a good general kick too. We will be fine for a few weeks and one week closer to Hunt
 
If we get healthy and improve our discipline its ourselves to lose.
You do have to wonder if the negative play counts are a result of the refs tip sheets, so refs going into games expecting us to do certain things.

We've won 2 counts.


Panthers Rnd 1. 13 to 7
Eels Rnd 2. 13 to 7
Storm Rnd 3. 11 to 12
Dolphins Rnd 4. 15 to 7
Titans Rnd 5. 19 to 8
Cowboys Rnd 6. 9 to 8
Tigers Rnd 7. 10 to 7
Bulldogs Rnd 8. 5 to 9
Roosters Rnd 9. 17 to 8
Yes the two times we won penalty counts were when we played the two grubbiest teams in the NRL. I agree staggs brain fart was a sin bin. But Radley should've been sin binned twice. And Lindsay Collins did exactly what Carrigan got binned and banned for and there was not even a sin bin. Then Radley went in head first with force on Carrigan and there isn't even a penalty. Looks like the bunker were watching something else until it looked like we might win.
 
I swear the latest I've ever seen the judiciary report released is just after 1pm, it's usually 10-11am. 1:30pm and still nothing out.
 
Probably to be released during the next game and hoping no one notices Radley isn't on it.
Probably want to make an example of Staggs, refer straight to judiciary and pretend we don’t see at least one every week & a dozen every origin game.

It’s worth a week, so with broncos tax it’s likely 2-3wks.
 
Nothing for Victor the Inflictor 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂

2 weeks for Staggs.

They are just taking the piss now.
 
Really, did we expect anything else from these fools?
I'll be honest, I kind of did.

Leading with the head on Patty should have been cited. How he's avoided any sort of punishment or sanction for that at all is beyond me.

I'm ok with the 'hip drop' not being taken further, same as Talty's.

There wasn't much in the crusher but those have been fined all year, and the high shot wasn't great either.

Edit - Peeks had to pay $3k for a crusher a few weeks ago.
 
It’s National Rugby Entertainment rules baby!
