NRL - Finals Week 1

[LockyersLeftBoot]

**** this looks similar.... in fact it looks just like last year when I was at this game on Sunday it was nice and sunny. It also made me so very angry that day

If we win this weekend would we play the loser of this game?

 

[BruiserMk1]

Playing with under inflated balls?
Destroying evidence?
Spying on the competition illegally?
Tampering with under contract players?
Interfering with the competitions headset radios?

Oh shieet

 

[Kimlo]

Roosters are seriously good really. They've just got good to excellent players all across the park and their spine is absolute top tier.

Bennett knows how to get a team ready for the finals these days.

Was that not grounded?

 

[winslow_wong]

Was that not grounded?

No control. Finger poked it

 

[ivanhungryjak]

I’m with Billy. There has to have been at least a bit of downward pressure there. But that’s how they’ve been ruling all season, I guess.

 

[tommy]

Was that not grounded?

Absolutely. By the tryscorer.

 

[Galah]

I hate the roosters so so soooo much like how do they afford this team buttttt I’m fucking loving this

If it means Smith loses another grand final I'm okay with it.

Same. And also better than grub Roberts.

Back them to go 16-0 and you’ll see they’re not so bad...

 

[Galah]

How much is manu on? I’d love to know..

 

[winslow_wong]

Roberts getting towelled up. Not quite fixed

 

[Kimlo]

I know South's are getting flogged but they haven't been too bad. The roosters are just fucking excellent. I would not want to be playing them week 3 that's for sure.

It's been a two horse race since last year and I'd be amazed if it isn't a Roosters Storm GF again.

Those two teams have basically been minor premiers every year in the last decade or more.

Salary cap works.

 

[Alec]

How much is manu on? I’d love to know..

X = actual player salary

X/4 = How much they are taking up of the cap at the Roosters
X*4 = How much they free up after leaving the Roosters.

 

[Kimlo]

Same. And also better than grub Roberts.

I'd love to see a journo quote JDs finals record comments back to him post game haha.
