All NRL Games [Round 27, 2025)

[Mark from Brisbane]

I'd love us to get Noah Martin. There's a workhorse with no self preservation in mind.

Yeah and it’s those players who aren’t being picked in first grade ( regularly ) that I think we should target , it’s just like Talau wanting a regular spot rather than sitting in Reggie’s and getting games only due to injuries.

I believe that’s where our recruitment should look, maybe even get a contract break for 2026

Well the 50 curse has just claimed the Raiders

Haha.
Raiders came into this round as competition favourites but I think Sticky has taken a gamble.
Recent byes in rounds 15 19 and 24 and now resting 10 players in r27 ... if they win their semi they'll have another week off. That's not much continuity!

I stuck it out until halftime, but that was it. Does he need to make every player and every play an over-the-top high pitched greatest moment in history? It’s like he thinks he needs to compensate for a nothing game by trying to turn it into the greatest spectacle on Earth.

Interesting point that one , the resting of players if they have niggles is smart , if they are fit I believe it’s a roll of the dice.

They could easily get blown off the park by a rampaging Bronco’s who are on somewhat of a roll at present.

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Boy the Knights are absolutely crap , the Squeels are running riot this afternoon.

Almost scoring at will.

 

[EOL now nesting on the GC]

Des bows out without a spoon. Just.

A lot of AFL fans don't really like the week break before the finals... partly because the Top 4 already get the week off after the regular season, then if they win in the first week they play the preliminary final having played 2 games in the previous month. It seems a lot more common for those Top 4 teams in the AFL to get rolled before the GF compared to the NRL.

I have a feeling this is going to be the first time ever in one round that both the top and bottom placed sides have conceded 60 points in a match.....

 

[HoldenV8]

The effing Raiders had one job today.......

But, they lost and so we lost a fleeting 9th finish.

Who cares? 9th and 10th are equally unimpressive.

Rugby league was the real winner this weekend 😜

 

[davohan123]

We beat knights and titans we are in 8
How we lost to both is Mind blowing
Knights the only game they turned up this year was ours!!

 

[mickqld]

Well we had 5 of our top 17 out for a large part of the year.
Paseka
Aloiai
Croker
Olakau'atu
Brown
Then another 3 gone last month
Koula
Garrick
Jake T missed a lot.
Plus Turbo missing with injury and form for a large part.
Look what happened when the faders took out 10 of their 17. Think we did as well as could be expected considering the injury toll.

Does this mean we haven’t escaped the “cluster” yet? Or have we escaped it, but not in a good way?
