NRL 2024 Round 1 Discussion

Vegas has been nothing but a huge distraction and disruption to the pre-season, start of the season and the players focus in general.

Yep this was my concern all along.

 

[Foordy]

I found it telling that during the pre game coverage when Yvonne asked Vlandys if given the "success" if the Vegas games, other clubs had approached him wanting to make the trip ... Instead of answering the question, he pretended he couldn't hear her and went to a tangent about how much money could be made from this venture

 

[Big Del]

He changed a shitload compared to Green. Especially early on in his tenure. But he has this fascination with Jake Granville for some reason. I was suprised he picked kuli tbh.

Jake Granville has been a champion at the Cows longer than I can remember .
Used to dread when he came on the field against the Broncos . Still had some thing to offer last season when I saw him play .
Why do you dislike him ?

Yep I saw that and cringed, when he should have been talking up and promoting the game growing in general the knob just started blathering on about getting gambling dollars in the US.

That was his entire focus for this whole 'promotion' - he just wanted to get more gambling kickbacks.

He isnt any good. Poor defender now, worst service from dummy half in the comp and when he plays as a middle forward which is most of the time he gets folded constantly. He plays way too many mins.

Have you seen Turpin?

Granville makes Turpin look like Cameron Smith.

 

[Santa]

Newcastle have some passionate fans. Nice to see them do well.

 

[JayPee]

This is a fucking terrible rule

 

[JayPee]

He is driving in the tackle. Just ridiculous

 

[JayPee]

Look at this 10m. He has them back 6 and a half. Jesus.

 

[JayPee]

There has been abysmal calls against the Knights early.

 

[Foordy]

stupid call... that was 1000% Tapine's fault. verging on deliberate to get a penalty

 

[Foordy]

The Raiders clearly took some diving lessons during the off season

 

[JayPee]

The raiders are back 7m at best. Wtf is this?

 

[Foordy]

can we get through just one set where the Raiders don't fucking dive
