    That was very poor from the Warriors 12-46.
    Upside I couldn't been bothered going to it.
    Looks like only a few made it, didn't hear crowd size but less than 8,000?

    Every week I see the big boys not being able to handle the ball and don't have any power in there leg drive.
    Too many players are too comfortable. No hunger, happy to get a wage.

    Big shake up needed I think, attitude and culture all wrong

    Big shake up needed for years, don't see it happening anytime soon. They have had the worst of the officials this season, but can't use that for some of the performances this year.

    Oh well, give me an easy life and a peaceful death.

    Warriors doing their usual, playing well last game of the season when there's nothing to play for.

    Decent read about the fun and games at the Warriors over the years.

    Fantastic game Raiders turning over the Storm. What made it even better was Melbourne were wrong end of a touch judge decision (they would have been offside anyway but doesn't stop them feeling hard done by). So that's only 99% of ref calls going their way now. (I joke obviously)

    I really like the raiders. Would love to see them go on and win it. That result is really after blowing the competition open. At least to get to a GF anyway. After how the eels played last night they will fancy their chances going to Melbourne.

    Broncos have gone into full tilt, total meltdown mode since the game though it was an absolute hammering.

    Very tense game between Raiders and the Rabbitohs. Glad the Raiders won, purely because i think they'll have a slightly better chance of beating the Storm (who I think will win tomorrow and probably the grand final).

    Disappointing result in the final, Roosters won, poor ref call is what the chat is about though sadly.

    2020 season stuff thread.


    Woman who's accusing Josh Reynolds off assault appears to be a piece of work, who's got multiple aliases and obtained large sums of money from a lot of men for made up stories of dead parents or fake pregnancies and general manipulation.

    I went to subscribe to watchnrl for the year and noticed it allows you to enter a voucher code to reduce the price - anyone know where I could get one or are there sign up discounts closer to the start of the season? Thanks

    Creepy Bulldog duo dropped indefinitely for having sex with school girls, aged 17 or 18, so not illegal. Read elsewhere they allegedly knew the girls because they'd met them when they visited their school! Classy stuff.

    Try fest for the first game of the season so far.
    2 - 2 between the Eels and Bulldogs :pac:

    Captain's challenges bit of a balls so far.

    And I've found an IPTV provider that gives me the Aussie channels, perfect.

    Still a pretty enjoyable game but maybe only because it was the first game of the season.

    Not sure how I feel about the new rules with the challenge the option of moving an infield scrum out to the sideline. Hopefully teams will actually learn to use thier challenge correctly. Using the 1 challenge on a lost ball in midfield in the first half is beyond stupid. Would have loved to have seen that go against them in the end when Ferguson was taken out in the air and dragged in goal.

    After a nervous start the Cowboys are starting to play well - should make for a cracking second half!

    Let the Broncos get too far in front after the break unfortunately.

    Looks like a comfortable win for the Raiders against the Titans earlier.

    Match on tomorrow at 830 on sky...might as well make most of it those of you inclined to sleep in at the weekend - won't be much else in the way of live televised RL in forthcoming weeks/months

    Bunnies with a decent lead after the first half, scored with a man in the bin, Sharks look a bit lost at times.

    Enjoyed the penrith roosters game, very high-octane

    Hadn't watched the 2nd half, but do you mean the forward pass at the end? Could have a gone either way I think. Marginally forward but you see passes like that every game and the ref plays on, Sharks were unlucky not to sneak the win weren't they.

    Dragons defended their line for SO long. Brilliant scrambling, then fluff two gilt edge chances at the other end to at least get on level terms, meaning all the hard work is for nothing, Tigers confirm the win with a try off a scrum.
