Round 6 - Other games, 2021

Poor Brandy just wants Voss to shut it as we all do.

The guy is seriously annoying.

I had a solution - tune in to Channel 9!

Oh wait, that's not a solution

DWZ as back up fullback?

DWZ was super. I'd sign him in a minute.

But how bad was Hoppa - wow

Faaaaaaarrrrrrrrrkkkkkkkk

I just saw some highlights from the Vermin v Tigpies game. Sensational finish in a big way! What I really did not like was Latrell Mitchell and his foul play during the game. He deserves at least a 5 game ban for what he did to Tigers winger with his off the ball foul and also kicking out at Luke Garner who dared to tackle him.

Latrell is a lethal player and an asset to to the game, what he does with this niggle and crap that he continues to do is going to make him a huge enemy of teams. I think when you see him carrying on like a pork chop demanding that a Tigpie is sinbinned late in the game when he was lucky to be on the pitch sums it up!

For your own good, do not become another Mundine!! Souffs have a few people like this, Cody Walker is another one. brilliant player with a splash of petulance and he has already served a suspension this year.

That is the one weakness with Souffs they have a few hot heads and I see this as a weakness that teams in time will exploit!

I know its been said a million times by probably a million people ... but the reason that players like Mitchell get away with so much niggle is because no one is allowed to sit them on their ar$e by putting one on their chin. He wouldn't have gotten away with squat like he does now if he had to come up against the likes of Lurch, Igor or Mal Reilly.

I totally agree, you see them get away with this stuff and years ago it would have been dealt with, to see players rushing at referees demanding sin bins for players its become like soccer. I would love to see the NRL bring in a rule that if this happens a ref should put the offender in the bin for 5 minutes as the refs need to make their decisions without this intimidation.

Latrell and Co believe they are entitled and they play for a club that believes its entitled as well. They have never lost the chip on their shoulder in spite of their overall success. It makes it hard for a neutral to cheer them on!

 

[Bring back the.... Biff?]

Wow. Bravo warriors!

Wow. Bravo warriors!

They would’ve got an arse kicking after losing to us. I’d like to think Manly helped them out with their perfect score. It was pretty impressive. Packed Kogarah (well COVID limited packed), Hiku gone with the dislocated shoulder. Great defence. But fuk me we play them again in three weeks. Hopefully RTS is injured.

Rabbitohs star Latrell Mitchell will appeal the four-week ban that was handed down by the NRL Judiciary following his side’s thrilling win over Wests on Saturday.

Mitchell has been hit with a grade two dangerous contact charge on Tigers star David Nofoaluma, which will see him sidelined for a month, while also being handed with two contrary conduct offences that will accumulate fines for the fullback.

The Rabbitohs star will be able to have his ban reduced to just one week if he is successful in downgrading the suspension, carrying over five points in doing so.

Absolute joke if it gets downgraded to 1 week on appeal!

Deliberately elbowing a player off the ball as well as kicking a player (again off the ball) = 1 week? Madness.

Wow. Bravo warriors!

There must be something positive in keeping a squad 'in a bubble' as the Worriers have been forced to do. They are playing with much more purpose since they were forced to camp at Gosford.
Manly benefitted from taking the squad to Mudgee where the 3-4 day sojourn seemed to galvanise the players, and their performance was so much better.
