    And the defender gets absolutely hosed again. No fucking way is that a knock on by Kaufusi. You pass late and it happens to contact the defender, bad luck. Bullshit call.

    And now a pen for a leg lift cause omg thats dangerous. Fuck me the NRL has gone to dogshit. Great three man driving tackle. Punished. Great pressure shot by Kaufusi. Punished. Fuck this garbage.

    This is NOT rugby league.

    We blamed the sin bin phenomenon on Greenberg, but now it's getting worse.

    I kind of get the massive clamp down on anything remotely high, I feel whetehr they've had some legal guidance or just realised themselves that they want to show that they've taken massive steps to reduce the dangers of concussion etc now that it seems to be such a big deal.

    But most of this hip drop stuff is ridiculous.

    The problem is that besides the actual HIA protocol, they're doing nothing at all to protect concussion of defenders, which happens more than concussion of ball carriers.

    I wonder how many games we're gonna have to endure of Kasey Badger's park footy officiating. She's beyond awful. Lucky she's got a vagina.

    What a vicious shoulder charge from Harris there. Fuckin homos.

    And another soft cock penalty for a leg lift. What a tough game rugby league used to be...

    Who the fuck is this idiot in the bunker?

    Been saying it for years. If you, as a ball carrier, turn in the line and face your own goal line you are responsible as much as the defender, for any "crusher/neck pressure" situation that results.

    I honestly think today's officiating is the worst it's ever been.

    David Fifita confirmed he’s not taking up the 2 year option at the Titans today, media reporting it’s imminent that he will sign with the Panthers.

    I really don’t understand the criticism of him or the thought that he doesn’t fit the Penrith system. Sure he’s going to have to work on some things defensivley but ironically I think there’s been some really lazy analysis trying to label him as a lazy player.

    For 850k, factoring in the lack of top tier talent on the open market, I think it’s a really good deal for the Panthers. The guy is a genetic freak.

    Haha scratch that now, must’ve genuinely been announced no more than 10 minutes after I made that post.

    Uncle Nick strikes again.

    About the only top tier signing I would’ve been happy with this year. There’s fuck all on the market and I was worried we were going to end up wasting all our cap space on duds.

    Poor Titans, he was the only thing they had going for them. Roosters now have too many top 2nd rowers, one of them is going to go.

    Manly to give the Dolphins a paddling tonight imo, 1.75 is great odds. Dolphins are shit.
     
  16. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    Bit surprised the Chooks wanted him that bad given their stocks. But its a great signing. He'll thrive at a top 4 club. Was worried a couple years ago he was another Dave Taylor but he's been very strong the last 18 months.
     
  17. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    Filthy 5 minutes from the Dolphins. How can anyone not love watchin them. Fuller's try was class.
     
  18. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    Ugh fuck off Cronk. Garrick has responsibility not to back into defenders. Dog shit call.
     
  19. Magic AJ Parker

    I don’t know what was worse tonight, the bunker or Queenslander’s obsessions with sweet Caroline.

    Will not be able to sit through a whole round of games at Suncorp next week if that jarring song is going to be played after every try, makes it hard enough to watch Broncos games let alone now its made its way into the Dolphins games there.

    They got molested by the officials tonight and still won, putting up another 30. Bit of credit where it's due.
