General NRL 2019 Round 3 - General Discussion

[playdaball]

Can we sign a Big Fijian?

 

[Mr Frank White]

Called the first forward pass, then let SST's go

 

[Navigator]

I think Gus may have stuffed his call when he said I'm feeling the Eels, I remember years ago he called a warriors game and he said the warriors are gone, but we came back to win the game, I cant say he or Blocker roach are my favorite callers

 

[Sup42]

The competition is rigged.

Good on Vossy on Fox for asking about the Roosters "Big Four" the implications of cap cheating are obvious, especially comparing that to the Big three club of the last decade. Wish he had the balls to mention the cap word.

 

[pbrown01123]

he may still be top of the post-contact metres stats, but there was some kind of ineffectual imposter wearing Klemmer's shirt for the Shites today

 

[Raw Power]

Charnze Nicoll-Klokstad just superb.. well done son. Hope this kick starts the career.. you deserve it.

Yes... So proud of Charnze doing so well, even though I usually can't stand following Ricky's Raiders, I was cheering them on.
It's the best thing for him to get a fullback gig in this comp!
With Roger Tuivasa-Sheck here he most probably would have been struggling to get a start.

 

[Stalefish540]

You expect poor decisions, but some of the calls are just mind-blowingly bad. Edrick Lee being carried over the sideline is called a penalty 999/1000. It was that blatant and all the refs were there. I just don't get how they are getting these kind of calls wrong...

Crazy stuff is following Lee around this season

That Edrick Lee one defies belief. There is literally 4 officials watching a bloke tackled on the ground with hands on him, then be lifted up and dragged 5m over the line. Not sure if Newy score given how clunky they looked, but the game was on the line and they lost their chance from a howler.

Not really a Faiders fan. But slightly warming to them this season on the back of Charnze Nicoll-Klokstad, Bateman, and the firey ranga Horsburgh.

Wighton will do well at 6 if they find a decent 7. Sezer and Sam Williams are painful to watch. Is this George Williams they signed a 6 or a 7??

The "KLONK" !
Are 2 bams worth a Klonk?

Justin Hodges is about as bad as Halligan as a commentator. The guy makes no sense.

 

[tajhay]

Whoa that Shaun Johnson spiral bomb!

 

[Sup42]

Johnsons put a lot of work into his kicking game in the off season.

Would have helped the Warriors a lot if he did it here.

Especially putting away his ten meter touch finders under no pressure.

 

[Fazz]

Oy vey. Johnson has as many try assists in this game as we do tries in two full games.

I thought our team was tough enough mentally to weather him leaving, so I hadn’t really worried about it until today. So this hurts to watch.

 

[OMG]

Sharks will put a record score on us lol, Shaun Johnson looks slick as, they've got masses of improvement in them.

 

[Fazz]

If something doesn't change, EVERY team will put a big score on us. The scariest part is that Manly and the Tigers weren't even that good. We were just THAT bad. All they had to do is execute basic NRL level play and we were screwed.

 

[jonno]

I wish Mannering had gone to a real footy club before he retired. Good on Shaun Johnson for getting out while he could.

 

[Boats n Hoes]

Sharks will put a record score on us lol, Shaun Johnson looks slick as, they've got masses of improvement in them.

Must be nice knowing he can just do his own thing without worrying if 12 other fuckers are gonna turn up on the day or not.

Incidently Shaun Johnson now has more try assists than both our halves combined..

Pair them together. Can then ruin one game instead of multiple games per round.

Good seeing Charnze Nicoll-Klokstad getting a double the other night. He plays with a lot of enthusiasm always around the play the ball waiting to get close to the action. He seems to have left here on good terms and can't recall any issues with him while he was he so pleased to see him taking his opportunity especially as his chances here were limited.

Yup, who needs a quick nimble outside back with great anticipation when you can stick a second rower out there.
