Ridiculously good by Dufty

Lmao Hunt just got dragged

Geez Roosters are gonna be hard to stop this year. They seriously look even better than last year when they'll be full strength.

If it HAS to be them then I just hope they take down the Storm again along the way. Would love nothing more than for Cooper Cronk to have the wood over that smarmy prick Smith in the backend of their careers.

tbh though they have looked remarkably vulnerable in the second half of the last 2 weeks. Dragons were making linebreak after linebreak, just not finishing them off.

I love how teams have now figured that Addo-Carr’s size is a liability. In defence, if you can hold him up, you can easily drive him back and completely ruin the Storm’s early-set momentum.

C'mon Warriors kill those *****

 

[Kimlo]

I've got 200 on the Warriors 1-12. Up the cuzzies.

 

[Battler]

Melbourne sure do get some mystery penalties.

 

[Alec]

SST and JWH have to be close to the best front row pairing in the comp. 455 metres between them, over 10m a run on average.

 

[Morkel]

It’s being really picky, but I feel like they could have pressured Munster’s kick better there. The defenders just ambled up and almost walked the last few steps before he kicked it. They were never going to get to him in time, but at least sprint and put your body in the way of the ball so that he has to think twice about his angle.

How does Ayshford keep getting a start?

How does Ayshford keep getting a start?

They were saying pregame that it’s his first shot in ages. You can see why

 

[Galah]

Is Melbourne ever onside?

 

[Alec]

Melb prob thought this game was gonna win itself - imagine playing a team with Tohu Harris at halfback. They'll regroup and win, obviously with a bit of ref help to get them started.

 

[tommy]

Lovely play-the-ball let go there. Textbook leave it be for the Storm there.

Which just goes back to the "held" rule thread I started last week. No doubt by the backend of the season refs and NRL will be on top of that. The NRL needs a succesful Melbourne franchise.

 

[Kimlo]

What an absolute bullshit penalty
