2021 Round 5 - Other Team Lists and Game Discussion

[B-Train]

As if they were going to score more points with TPJ on the field.

It still made no sense to bench their second best player for 35 minutes straight.

 

[Gene Krupa]

Or in other words the Roosters salary cap

Woah, who at the Roosters took a pay cut. My mistake, Jake Friend retired.

Keeping him fresh for the finals.

Another fine one sided product delivered to the mugs courtesty of the laughable nrl yawn

 

[Freakzilla]

I've always liked him and rated him.

Looks like he’s filling his potential

 

[Kempsey Dog]

Milf the myth. His next contract will be $400k..

I think he will end up at Wigan Warriors under Adrian Lam if Jackson Hastings returns to NRL

He would carve up over there and get huge money. He should do that for his own sanity more than anything. He cops a tonne of criticism and rightly so but it would have to take it's toll mentally eventually and it looks like it did with Milford years ago.

Latrell 1 point FG is more than our teams total in the last 3 weeks

Let that sink in

FML

 

[GTOWN]

Who would watch that... I hate AFL, but watched the swans game from half time because it was a close game... made it interesting even though I don’t care who won...

 

[Northern Beaches dog]

When all what people are talking about is a field goal just before half time from the whole game, you know the game has a problem.

But it was worth 2 points. lol

Round 5 charges: Glenn facing fine

All the official charges for round five of the Telstra Premiership.

www.nrl.com

Broncos forward Alex Glenn is facing a fine after being issued a dangerous contact charge following a review of Thursday's match against South Sydney.

The grade one charge means that unless Glenn is successful at the NRL judiciary he is facing a fine of $1700 (early guilty plea) or $2250 (guilty at panel).

Another fine one sided product delivered to the mugs courtesty of the laughable nrl yawn

I heard V'landys on the radio this morning in complete denial even suggesting that there are less 6 agains than last year and less injurys.. Was a good appointment before Covid but is showing his lack of footy touch badly with many of his latest calls..

 

[Blueandwhiteblood1968]

Does anybody give Manly a chance at beating the warriors?

I want to see a contest not a one sided slaughter

I am still doing a little digging but this year we are seeing an average of 52.5 penalty's per round as apposed to 75.5 penalty's per round in 2020. interestingly the NRL don't share stoppage times per game in any stats. I will bet that the stoppage time is far less which in turn is creating more fatigue. They also don't publish how many 6 again's (I wonder why..) per game, at least not anywhere I can see.

But it was worth 2 points. lol

Half a try lol

 

[Wearnze]

Watching most games the last few rounds it's clear that there are 3 comps within 1 and that those in first grade get all the 50-50 calls from the refs and those in 3rd grade are treated like they are learning the game from refs.

1st grade - Panthers, roosters, Rabbitohs, storm, eels, raiders

2nd grade - sharks, knights, tigers, titans, warriors, dragons

3rd grade - Broncos, Bulldogs, sea Eagles, cowboys

 

[CaptainJackson]

They also don't publish how many 6 again's (I wonder why..) per game, at least not anywhere I can see.

They're on the match stats when you look it at game by game. Under team stats and in the negative play section, you will see penalties conceded and ruck infringements which is 6 agains
