And he's not even safe.
Not safe, not a good defender, not a ball player, not fast. Fuck him off
-
Two of our hyphen guys can fuck right off
-
Funny seeing Joey Tapine get his first of many binnings of the year
-
Surely just can’t keep going left, one trick ponies the warriors. Comes off 1 out of 20 times
-
Wahs doing the previously unimaginable; making Canberra look like world beaters.
-
Bit harsh before
Fish is good. Roger is good. Barnett is good.

It's bizarre, whilst RTS is wasting away on the wing. You can't create any backdoor plays with CNZ sweeping round the back. RTS gives you about 3 different options coming from there.
And I stand by what I said when the signing was made, AFB is a bigger loss to the Wahs than JFH is a gain. Those 200+ metres each week is not something you can just replace like that and JFH isn't that type of prop, he's a first contact prop who wins collisions, but he doesn't stand up in contact like AFB does and gets you those 5-6 post contact metres which the Wahs were able to get on the front foot and play off it, which was a massive reason why they were successful in 2023. Just my opinion of course and if I'm wrong, so be it, but it was my first thought when the signings happened.
-
AFB a massive loss and also turns the Sharks in to a genuine premiership side. Huge loss.
We are still a 5 one out runs and a high kick team. With out the players to pull it off
-
AFB huge loss and also will be why Sharks will go well.
Thought Ali L was very good in a beaten side if I am looking for positives as well as the guys mentioned above.
Spine was woeful, also no one pushing up with Egan, only going left, no injection at all from the back, it was one of the worst displays I’ve seen.
Only reason spine looked ok against a depleted Storm was because CNK was replaced by TMM. I’m going against the RTS grain here by saying TMM at fullback may suit this team structure. Wouldn’t work for most teams but he is needed out there. Not so sure just replacing CHT stops the rot. Anyway just a rant
-
Can Penrith just fuck off??
They've win 4 in a row and they turn up week 1 and play like this??
They just do everything well, and full energy all the time. Linespeed. Kick chase. Everything is flat out all the time. -
The woeful Warriors are back for 2025!
I commend their supporters who turn up each week to see that rubbish. -
Liam Martin is so good
-
Funny sort of game that Panthers Sharks one. It felt like Penrith were instructed to entertain, hence some very uncharacteristic offloads, 50/50 passes (especially by Edwards), early unnecessary kicks, stuff you wouldn't usually see from them, but being in Vegas game me the impression that they were encouraged to entertain a bit.
Easily the best game of the Vegas carnival, great comeback from Cronulla too, just couldn't quite get over the line.
-
Saddest part for me was watching AFB in beast mode….sigh
-
I imagine Webster will roll the same team out next week, no coach is making wholesale changes week 2.
But holy shit something needs to be done in the spine. And what have we been doing all summer? There was very little movement, we weren't in synch, it was yuck.
-
Rumour was Boyd was in halves with Metcalf before injury, so maybe he does that. It doesn’t necessarily change the lack of direction and inability to be more direct though. The whole spine was doing different things. A shit show. Going to be a long season if more of the same.
At least Webby looked upset after that loss for a change. -
Roosters have been eliminated from the comp in week 1
