I get it was a shit call but why is ivan crying? Suck it up ****
so he can put pressure on the bunker and refs for next week. Don’t get me wrong Penrith deserve all their success but they been getting away with way too much by the refs in the final series for a few years now .

Will be an interesting grand final , it’s a battle of the 2 wrestling cheats

He's probably said it because Storm were awarded an obstruction try last time they played Panthers. So factoring in the rort on their no try tonight, he's doing the right thing by his club.

Harsh, bro. He was in his first year of first grade iasf year. Always looked like he’d be special coming up through the ranks.
Alamoti was the dominant junior. In the 2020 Matts side that was undefeated before covid shutdown Alamoti was the standout player in a side that include Papalii among others. He was most hyped junior and flicked before he got to 20 and a handful of NRL games. Now he’s into a grand final.

Storm have taken full advantage of walking off the mark putting off markers. This coupled with the fact you can play tunnel ball now, is a big reason why their spine can run so much.

Why don't they play these games in the afternoon? Better conditions, better surface, better game.
Mate, most of us KNOW that the game is controled by the TV Networks in partnership with the betting agencies.
The TV Networks make money by televising the game, so the more people watching the more adds the see, and they also make a lot of money from the countless boring moronic gambling adds.

Yeah I know, it just disgusts me how stupid it is, and how detrimental it is for the game.

Why hasn’t he been re-signed beyond this year?
He was in the right place tonight: outside Cleary. I still think he’s defensively sus. Storm will target him.
He is signed for next year as well, got extended mid year. His price will probably go up too high beyond that, but he is coming along nicely. He is no Critta obviously, but I enjoyed him belting Sharks off the kicks. He should have passed to Turuva early in the game, but apart from that he had bloody good game.

Ah, I missed the extension. Only for one year though, still doesn’t show long term belief. But likely you still had the May issue to deal with and he’s now gone. Definitely has potential, but needs to be defensively better which is why I wasn’t that upset when he left the Dogs. Storm will be a tougher assignment than Sharks, but four in a row would be an amazing achievement.

@Nano don’t agree meany is a good player ?
Garbage player being carried by the storm system and team, **** couldn't run more than 5 meters for us without being pushed back 7 meters, he still gets out played and exploited by better players he goes up against due to how weak he is still lol

I expect the Panthers to target him with their strong/aggressive second rowers and superior centers, he will get eaten alive when the pressure is put on him I believe

Still whinging about this Polly.
Xerri 10 tries in 2024, Alamoti less than half that.
Good luck to him, but he wasn’t missed.
Im going to wait for alamoti to concede an error in the GF before everyone on here turns on him again and thanks CC for not keeping him
