Spoonbowl 24

[Mark from Brisbane]

I’d just like to take this opportunity of wishing the Wests Tigers all the best in their game V the Slime for this weekend.

The Eels running dead last is almost as good as us making the finals.

So bring it on home boys.

PS: besides you’ve won it the last 3 years so it’s your time to finish 16th instead.

This game has been an NRL headquarters marketing beat up, after Gough had Manly play with 13 men for 30 minutes, the officiating in that game was horrendous..

Gough is the ref for this game also, let’s hope he screws parra the same way he screwed us

The game against the Tigers a couple of weeks ago left a bad taste in my mouth, especially the way they treated Brooksy. I hope those ****ers make it 3 spoons in a row.

…..but it’ll also be a pleasure to see Parra and Queen Gutho handed the wooden spoon.

Bah! Can’t decide. May we all have a happy SpoonBowl 24!!!

Tigers game I blame officials, not the players doing their job, or the fans cheering their team on....
Eels however make me sick and been my most hated team, along with St Illawarra since I started following footy....
Will be roaring for Tigers Friday 100%

Can you believe my local pub where I live is hosting a “ Spoonbowl” party.

The only positive of that was the chance to put Parra in the box seat for the spoon

You forgot Barrett

Ha! Well I guess those Broncs fans have nothing else to party about so why not.

The donkeys are dreaming of playing in it next year.

Think you mean 12 men, but you make a fair point @Dion Johnson

 

[Will on the hill]

If you subtract spoons from premierships we are on +8* and Parra are on -10. The only thing better than increasing that gap this season would be increasing it by 2.

*edited, thanks SER8.

I read (last night) about shirts being produced, parties being held, and social media going off and I thought that I'd be so embarrassed if I was celebrating a spoonbowl if Manly were playing.

A bit surprised @Terry Zarsoff hasn't come in and complained about the americanisation of using 'bowl' in relation to an Australian sporting event. lol.

I don't know if the hype was started by some in the media or nrl hq but I don't think either are savvy enough.

Anyway, go tigers!

I would have spelt the noun, Americanisation, with a capital ‘A’. Then like you, an ‘s’ rather than a ‘z’.

Otherwise carry on, Mr Globalisation.

I was so very tempted to use the 'z', but didn't want to ruin your breakfast (lol).

They'll get a capital 'a' when they deserve one!

If you subtract spoons from premierships we are on +7 and Parra are on -10. The only thing better than increasing that gap this season would be increasing it by 2.

Manly is on +8 not plus 7
