General NRL 2019 Finals Week 1 - General Discussion

[Tedster]

Good performance by parra. However, I'd say that they've played their grand final game and will probably get pasted by the Storm next weekend.

Hope so.

After this kind of shellacking you’d normally hear the coach bust out tropes about it being a young team and just being proud of the boys for making the 8. Have to say though Young Broncs and Old this is the sort of pasting that leaves you in bad shape for next year. In fact it’ll have a few players looking for other clubs to improve their chances. Who of the young bucks hasn’t signed?

Seibold looks sick. Feel for him.

 

[Wellington Warrior]

Can we please stop throwing big money at these Broncos hacks!!!!

 

[Warrior#214]

Why is it the coach's fault? Eels are playing their best game of the year. It's the spine that is winning it.

I do think the coach plays a big part in readying a group for finals. There’s no sense that Brisbane have had at any point had the edge or drive to even get into the contest. Again this game has just put paid to next year and maybe started the rot on ending Siebolds coaching job before the end of 2020...

Yeah that's a pretty hard lesson. Poor buggers.

 

[Aman]

Parra are in for a massive shock against the Storm if they think this is how easy finals footy is.

 

[Wellington Warrior]

Fair crack. They're young af. They'll be a force next year.

Not with those halves they won’t..

Brisbane got gifted a finals spot because a QLD team has to be in it. At no point during the season did they look like they would compete in the finals

 

[Horriors2013]

How many want a stadium like Bankwest? Shit it's perfect for our club.

 

[Tedster]

From wooden spooners to this is pretty impressive. Hats off to parramatta.

 

[Horriors2013]

True. The spine has been a problem for many seasons now.

 

[Weno]

Warriors finals team.
1 - CNK 2 - Feki 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - Shaun Johnson 7 - Townsend 8 - Sipley 9 - 10 - Taukeiaho 11 - Lane 12 - Mau ( Vulcan's) 13 -Niukore

We had a few.

 

[Tragic]

The work that was done by the coach in 2011/2012 is really coming to fruition for the eels, their game model tonight was first rate.

 

[Tedster]

Sivu v Vinivalu next week, can't wait.

 

[Tedster]

Hope Dylan Brown is in the kiwi squad.

Can some trainspotter help me? I understand Madge got the boot from Souths because of a falling out with an agent. So that means Seibold got gifted a team that Madge had built. If so Brisbane have really brought a dud, and Madge as we know is quite a respectable coach. Who is Seibolds agent? Just asking like.

 

[Damo]

To be fair, Dearden and O'Sullivan were injured and they're both proper halves. Boyd is just going to be a liability until he retires.

Absolutely. They got our spot, and after watching tonight I can honestly say we would have lost by less than 58 points...just saying like.

I just want to hear what those wankers in Brisbane who want the Warriors out think now.

 

[Jwoodzy02]

That was hilarious

Mate they were done up front. Nothing to do with the halves.
