On another matter, get rid of the Titans, they offer absolutely nothing to the competition. Perennial shitshow this club.

Surprised his legal team didn't bring up the Billy Slater clause - must be #racism

Did you watch Saints- Manly Gards?

Ball spent more time on the ground than it did in hand

Better ball spending time on the ground than out of play or on a kicking tee

Watched about 1 third of the game, must have just been the good attacking bits but I struggle to believe this was one of the worst NRL game of all time, especially as it didn't involve Cronulla ;)

Which game was worse over the weekend, Manly v Dragons or Rabbits v Bulldogs, both were boring as hell & I was expecting both to be rather exciting tbh. Errors galore by both sides expecting to win. JD shouldn't get too excited by 1 win over the Dogs haha. Rabbits probably didn't deserve to win, they were just lucky Dogs absolutely showed absolutely nothing in attack when they could have easily won 30-0! They just danced around every time they had the ball in their 20. Connor was easily the Dogs best player. It will be between Rabbits, Dogs & Titans for the spoon this season if I'm honest.

Regarding Manly yesterday, they had so much ball themselves & could have won themselves but they just knocked it on every set they had down their attacking zone haha. Dragons made the most of their chances though.

Dragons did everything in their power to lose the game. Fortunately Manly didn't look like they even wanted to be on the field, much like us against Tigers a week earlier. At times I thought this game was headed to so bad its good territory but it didn't get there.

Dogs played with some heart but other than the taaffe kick to Connor and trell killing Fox can't say game was very memorable

I enjoyed that Dogs / Rabbits game - was good tough footy with some attacking and defensive highlights

Dogs need a run of momentum and PTBs from 30 metres out to score. They are 1 of the worst teams attacking from within the opponents red zone 10 metres out from a set position.

As for tipping, well the Panthers are probably the only team close to what you could call a safe team to back these days (winning vast majority of games week to week when at full strength). Kinda like what the Storm used to be. Rest of the teams and comp is a box of chocolates.

Think I figured out why Crichton is on the left during that game.
Because Burton has no ****ing clue how to organise his edge in attack.

Somewhere Ciraldo said he radios down instructions from the box and by the time trainer gets it to players Crichton had already thought of it and implemented

Which is why it baffles the mind Trindall can’t do a single thing to contribute to managing the game as one of the halves (but would be elite as the other one)

Tricky to go to Peter Wallace Waterboy School and learn how to march the boys around?
