The boring non-Manly Final series 2018

[damiennp90]

Yeah.

Wow. What a disappointing crowd.

I expect the media to be fair and totally bag the storm fans.


Hahahah. I crack myself up.

The Vermin are out-muscling the Drizzle right now.

How ironic that 1nglis was complaining about a chicken wing when he was at Melbourne when they started using their Saturday night wrestling tactics.

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

The Vermin are out-muscling the Drizzle right now.

I don’t think the Storm are the same side they’ve been over the last decade.

It had to happen I guess.

Still a good side but bearable.

 

[HoldenV8]

Poor defence from the Bunnies there. Scott won't score an easier try.

And while I am no fan of Vunivalu's defensive game, I have to applaud his effort in the lead up.

 

[Clint]

Loved the hit of Kaufusi on SBurg. What a great shot!!

 

[Ryan]

Everyone notice how important amazing wingers are now in the game today?

Congratulations NRL and refs.

Melb offside, holding down and wrestling in the ruck all night so far.

But no penalties!! Joke

Absolutely

 

[HoldenV8]

And Vunivalu restores my faith that he is pathetic defensively. More worried about telling the touchie that he wanted a penalty than worrying about the player with the ball.

 

[Clint]

Oh dear. Vunuvali... that was bad

 

[Ryan]

I think he made up for it!!

 

[Clint]

Oh dear. Vunuvali... that was bad

But that wasn't. May have just made up for it

 

[Cliffymagic]

Speedy ass wingers. Hope our coach is watching.

Afl 90,000 plus again crowd
Wint even reach 15,000 down at ami
Nrl being schooled in how to run a professional league.
Adam r gone for rabbits
Storm sadly look strong tonight.

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

You’re 100% spot on @Ryan , we are desperate for some decent wingers , the ones we have are ****!!

 

[Pittwater Legend]

That try assist from Slater reminded me of Brett Stewart and how easily Snake could do things like that. Absolute class

 

[Chip and Chase]

How bad is the Slater dribble fest from the commentators. Lazy a$$ Inglis runs straight pass him, not even interested in a tackle and you'd swear Billy just put on the greatest bit of ball playing ever seen to put Vunivalu over. God spare me. Please, please, please can they lose in straight sets and end this misery.

Refereeing is being tailored to suit the Scum's wrestle and no 10m. Not going to be easy for Bunnies.

Yeah if it was us the refs would ping us every tackle it’s a joke

 

[skull61]

Not a very big crowd wonder if the media will play that up

The excuse will be that the AFL had an Elimination Final playing across the road at the MCG (that crowd rivals last nights which drew close to 92,000).

But if it was Manly, even a full house at Brookie would be critisised because they'd claim more could have fitted into the SFS or ANZ. Not that the NRL would allow us to play a home final at Brookie anyway, they'd force us to play at Allianz.
