That Parra bench is shit. Playing into Souths hand by having a weak middle third once starters are benched

Agreed. Alvaro should start with RCG going to the bench and dropping Stone.

Roosters have a far better record under the control of Klein in both wins and penalties.....

Kikau out of the prelims, so a teeny bit of extra motive for souffs or eels to win their game...

And what a ridiculous decision that was, no player should miss a prelim for that tackle.

Us and Eels. Both those teams have better starting forward packs and I think we'll see less 6 agains from here on. Just a hunch, but the score blowouts are not a good look in finals imo.

Don’t lift in tackles and don’t have priors then. He’s only missing a game due to his priors.

I think the lifting action was exacerbated by JWH trying to get to the ground and that made the tackle look worse than it actually was. Sure it met the criteria for a lifting tackle, but not enough to miss a prelim imo.

I've always said that finals games should be 200 points not 100 like a regular season game.

He wouldn’t have missed a game if he wasn’t suspended over and over again for grub acts. Would have been 75 points early plea with no priors

Lucky for Kikau he's a good footballer. Fuck me did you hear him talk last night after he got suspended? English must be his 2nd language, he is a dribbler of the highest order. No job for him post-footy methinks.
