Finals thread

[SeaEagle21]

Watching the Storm and Cowboys just shows a whole other level. Thurston and Cronk forcing repeat sets at will

 

[EaglesDontTweet]

Great attacking sides that back it up it with great defence. Reminds me of us three years ago.🙁

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Looking at both these sides confirm how far off the pace we are, it's not a little it's a LOT!!

 

[SeaEagle21]

Thurston is at a different level. I think Cronk a little over-rated, certainly the last year or two.

True, Thurston atm is better but Cronk is still very good, very consistent.

Yep, we really do own 13th.

Scary how far off the pace we are... Will be a couple more lean yrs before we approach anywhere near this level

Look they are good teams but the footy is crap. So bloody dull. Last years gf was the same in the first half. It got better as the result was needed in the second half but this footy, this product is ****,

Really enjoyed the sharks , raiders game. Nice entertainment but at half time currently its like watching paint dry with the cows v storm.

 

[Wombat Legacy]

**** footy, absolute ****

 

[Little Grubber Kick]

Look I'm so annoyed with the refs and the NRL and the bunker and the fact Manly isnt there, that I'm giving up league...until the next match starts

Fairfax presstitute, old Bear fan? close?

Agree. I'm bored as ****. The last game was good to watch but this is a yawn fest.

So when is our Einstein brains trust coaching team going to dream up the idea of quick play the balls, fast line speed in defense, wrestle the tackled players onto their backs, 6th tackle kicks deep into space, going for repeat sets and setup some sort of structured plays in attack instead of chuck and hope.

2018, maybe!!!

Haha did you hear the assclowns on Ch Nein advertise tomorrow's game. Moore park 330pm. What !!! Moore park home of the Penrith Panthers. What a fu*king joke the NRL (sorry Greenturd) is.

 

[ALinda]

What a great game. And good to see in this second half the refs sticking out of it.

I'm with you @damiennp90 as I also really enjoyed it. It was an absorbing tussle between 2 very good teams, with not a lot of influence from the refs, and certainly nothing like last night's farcical game. Better game than this dull one too.

 

[mickqld]

Fu&koff Storm particularly Bellyache and scam Smith. Couple of fu*king first class cheats.

 

[Wombat Legacy]

ass clowns....that would be the Yawn Storm

See Smith having a nice old laugh with Cummins during a break in play? Compare that with how Cummins speaks to guys like Killer...and that's just the tip of the 'what's wrong with the way this game is run' iceberg...

Whilst it may have been dull conditions were hardly conducive to open Rugby League. Wet and cold nights produce a crap product, oops game. Maybe they should play more Sunday arvo games

 

[EaglesDontTweet]

So when Rabs says Storm in 19 years heading towards their 9th Preliminary Final I think he should also have to say "asterisk - cheating for many".

They do, except Brookvale oval. Much better venue on a cold wet Mon or Thurs night for maximum crowd effect if you ask Greenturd.
