2023 Finals Week 2 - Other Team Lists and Game Discussion

Ponga couldn't do much without his forwards getting dusted up

 

[The Innovator]

Maybe true. But roosters attack was putrid all season, incredibly lucky to even be in finals to begin with.

Dosen’t help when the coach decides to sack the no 7 and continue to play people out of position

 

[Bad Billy]

Watching replay now.
how good was Gambles attempt on AFB?
maybe you should do something before talking shit Tyson.

He's a 14 or a 6 who gets by on passion next to an elite 7. Mason was spot on about him

 

[CQDog]

Lets fuckn hope this is the only flogging of a Newcastle today…

They did the right thing fucking off Klemmer, but they should never have let Barnett go.

 

[KiwiDog7]

If a decent amount of Warriors fans show up next week, it will be absolutely pumping at Suncorp Stadium.

Plenty of expat live there

 

[chemdog]

Lets fuckn hope this is the only flogging of a Newcastle today…

will be a tough game against Brentford, use should win or at least get a draw

 

[KiwiDog7]

Don't be surprised if the Wahs with the GF.

A thank you for 'saving' Rugby League.

No excuses

Broncos don’t win that’s the ultimate choke job in the nrl era

 

[Bad Billy]

Gee is a fkn shit ref.
how does a ref need the bunker to tell him, he got hit in the fucken face, with the ball??

 

[Nate DAWG]

You beat me to it lol. I was going to give that guy some well deserved credit. Nicely played by him.

Nothing beats Wahs crowd signs

Walker is rubbish bro

They did the right thing fucking off Klemmer, but they should never have let Barnett go.

From memory, Barnett did something bad that led to a huge suspension.

Newcastle needed to cut ties.

He's come good at Warriors

 

[BELMORE]

Would seem that the majority were death riding the Roosters which I found odd. I thought it might be 50:50 but would seem the hatred towards the Chooks is more than I anticipated.
For what it’s worth, the better side lost. Klein is a cheat. The game changer was a Klein giving Storm a very dubious 6 again with less than 3 min left. And on the 4th tackle. They score next set.
penrith would have obliterated the Roosters & will do the Storm

How was it dubious

 

[Bob dog]

Lets fuckn hope this is the only flogging of a Newcastle today…

Last Sunday hammered them, totally off the pace.

 

[belmore_utd]

How was it dubious

What was more dubious is the half dozen penalties and 6 agains the Roosters received after Klein apologised for missing the Grant knockon that led to the Roosters first try.
To miss a knock on is one thing. But to try and correct it by giving the Roosters every subsequent benefit of the doubt and make up infringements by Storm until they put points on the board is just blatant cheating imo

 

[The Innovator]

How was it dubious

Seen a ref not award 6 again for someone as minor as that. It was soft

 

[Nano]

Lets gone the wahhhssss

 

[Rod67]

I'll go out on a limb and predict a Storm v Broncos Grand Final.

I hope the Panthers win against the Storm, but I feel the Storm is ONE team the Panthers do NOT want to face.

Storm should get back both Hughes and Coates next week and Panthers don't have the luxury of the home ground advantage next week with the game being played at Accor Stadium. Last time these two teams played at Accor was in the 2020 Grand Final where Storm beat Panthers 26-20.

Does Luai play?

Pressure is all on Panthers as everyone expects them to win and Storm to lose. That's just the way Bellamy and the Storm like it.

Broncos do have the luxury of playing at their home ground and should put a margin on the Warriors who were certainties, at home, against an overachieving Newcastle Knights this year.

 

[Kempsey Dog]

Finals series been pretty shit tbh. Everyone knows it's Riff v Broncs. Rest of the games have all been mediocre with a each losing team basically missing a handful of players.
