General NRL 2018 Round 23 - General Discussion

[snake77]

Off topic but channel surfing between ANZ and Leichardt. Not much of a crowd for the Bledisloe curtain raiser.

I know their not expecting a huge crowd. Although it is still bigger than what our stadia can hold if they nudge 50k. They have had to move other tests over to the SFS the Bledisloe was still drawing but losing so much doesn't help.

The low crowd for the curtain raiser isn't uncommon. I remember an article in the SMH years ago when they were getting big crowds. The Bledisloe was more of an event to go to. They still weren't getting people in early then.

It has filled out but not full by any means. Wallabies up 3 -0 early. Come on the Cowboys.

The Cowboys looking like a chance

Justice. Gallen all over Hampton, before the 'incorrect' play of the ball. Two tackles later Woods practically bounces it through his legs.

The Sharks are easily my most hated team.

Le Chad in under the posts.

Sharks have huge injury concerns regardless of the result.

 

[Beastmode]

Come on JT!
Come on Cows!!!

 

[sydneywarrior92]

A Thurston field goal seems appropriate.

 

[bruce]

Come one JT!
Come on Cows!!!

They heard you!!

 

[Fearmuss]

Geez the cows have some deadset spackers in that team.

 

[drunk_monk]

What the fuck is going on there man?

 

[drunk_monk]

Fuck me this is an exciting game

 

[bruce]

JT to draw!!

 

[sydneywarrior92]

Fifita is such a prick.

 

[Fearmuss]

NRL really needs to understand advantage properly. If someone muffs up a try scoring opportunity that is obviously the advantage played...

 

[Ever Hopeful]

Someone please explain why it is a sin bin for a professional foul if the opposition doesn't score, but not if they do?

A professional foul is a professional foul regardless isn't it? Right up there with a head high only being a head high if someone is hurt, or a forward pass is only a forward pass if it is thrown by the Warriors.

 

[drunk_monk]

Ah tits

 

[sydneywarrior92]

Even though Sharks win, they have major injury concerns. If we keep winning, we can bide our time. Sharks will slip up in the final 2 weeks.

 

[bruce]

Fifita is a dropkick

Lots of teams looking a bit beat up this round. We seem to be building nicely and quietly though.
