NRL General Discussion Thread - 2019

[Super Freak]

I've just been on Kayo Sports and there is a segment called All The Tries where they put together every try a player has scored.

I've been watching the Brett Morris highlights and fucking hell, I forgot just how good of a winger he was back in his Dragons days. Some of the tries he scored were just unbelievable.

He really is a shadow of his former self in comparison.

Other highlight reels include Greg Inglis, Benji Marshall, David Fusitu'a, Josh Addo-Carr, Suliasi Vunivalu, Josh Mansour, Anthony Milford, James Tedesco, Jordan Rapana, Roger Tuivasa-Sheck, Shaun Johnson and Josh Dugan.

I know what I'm watching tonight.

Who wants to go halves in a Kayo Sports subscription with me? For legal reasons we'll need to share the same household if sharing the account, but I can live with that.

And on that too, I wish both Morrises stayed at the Dragons for their full careers. I know it wasn't that simple, but shuffling around unsettled them both, I think they would have been far more consistent, motivated, and closer to their ceiling had they played together as a centre/wing combo for the club their old man bled for.

I'll probably get it now. Can I use it overseas?

You would need a VPN as it's only available for Australia.

The true Ben Hunt turned out for the Dragons today...

 

[Super Freak]

The players tearing Fox a new one. They aren't happy about this.

Other players speaking up have included Andrew Fifita, Clinton Gutherson, Josh McGuire, Corey Norman and there were a few others but can't remember who.

Who's the peanut at Fox League that thought that post would be a good idea, deadset. Social media is obviously full of sites that publish those kind of things but given Fox Leagues close association with the sport....dumb.

What was the post exactly?

What was the post exactly?

It was something like "Hunt drops the ball again"

I think it was the Hunt meme with him dropping the ball off the kick off with the caption "Hello darkness my old friend"

This might sound naive but what is wrong with that? He did drop the ball.

Oh that one? They put that up? That’s fucked.

I guess it's just low hanging fruit. The players decided to call them out on it. I personally didn't think it was too bad I was just replying to your post.

Hunt handled it pretty well afterwards.

I was convinced the fox league facebook page was a fan page for a while based on the content they would post. Who ever runs the page needs to be replaced.

Matty Johns and another fellow half back none other than the severely unstable Brett Finch thought it was fun to replay it and throw in a few snide remarks too. No surprise, they absolutely hate anything from north of the border.
