NRL 2023 Finals Week 1 Discussion

[Culhwch]

Hynes going for the field goal twice early in the count when they looked to have an advantage on that left side ....

Glad we ended up with Reyno.

 

[Broncos Maestro]

As I have always said - Sharks cannot beat a real top 8 team. They are taking the choker’s tag off the Dragons.

 

[BroncsFan]

Fitzgibbon is a myth with his 0-3 finals record after being gifted soft draws two years in a row

 

[mrslong]

I don’t even know what that was from Cronulla. They panicked.

 

[Brocko]

Sharks didn't score again, or look like scoring again, after Graham went for the two with a man up and rorters completely stuffed

A quick tap was legitimately as certain of a try as you ever would have seen. The chooks were GONE

 

[Battler]

Good result. The storm or rorters will be a stern test for Penrith. I don’t think they can beat riff, but they will turn up ready to grub it up

 

[Browny]

That is 80 minutes of my life wasted

 

[Brocko]

Good result. The storm or rorters will be a stern test for Penrith. I don’t think they can beat riff, but they will turn up ready to grub it up

Penrith wouldn't even need 2nd gear for that Roosters team tonight.

 

[mrslong]

Storm should handle the roosters easily

 

[I bleed Maroon]

Penrith wouldn't even need 2nd gear for that Roosters team tonight.

Best result for us is Melbourne advance and grub it up hard as is their want.

 

[Super Freak]

That was some amateur hour shit from Cronulla at the back end there.

Taking one too many settlers when setting up for a field goal attempt, and then Trindall with the unnecessary bullet pass that ends up going over the sideline.

 

[Brocko]

Lara reacted to an idiot and now they're all jumping in

 

[JayPee]

Book Penrith into the grand final already. Neither Storm or Roosters have a chance. Broncos just as close too. Maybe could squint and see Newcastle or Warriors on their greatest day but unlikely.

 

[BroncsFan]

Lara reacted to an idiot and now they're all jumping in

Poor Lara... she was trying her hardest to get through it, but too many flogs ended up around her haha

Who decided to set it up that close to the exits

 

[Brocko]

Sharks cannot possibly get a pissweak draw 3 years in a row. It'll keep papering over the cracks and they'll never improve.

 

[Fernando]

Damn, just remembered that missed goal from almost in front...Trindall didn't have a good game

 

[Mightybroncs2k17]

Sharks have some serious underlying problems which have been masked by a top 4 and top 6 finish the last two years. They made some really really poor decision's on attack tonight.

Would have preferred to see them get through though because they do tend to have the wood over storm. In saying that, i think storm at best chance of rolling the Panthers in the prelim with the niggling shit they carry on with.

Really highlights how accurate the dally m is for actually rating a player too. Lockyer never won one but hynes won one haha... wow
