I don't like wrestling but at the same time I still don't think the game needs to speed up either, all that will do is increase dummy half running. But I've always liked watching good defensive teams over attack.

I haven't seen what the justification for the city country teams is. I'm not sure if it confirms Pearce at halfback for NSW or not? City team looks great either way.

Isn't most of the mail that Daley is sticking with Reynolds and Hodko in the halves? Which, imo would be fucking crazy, especially Hodko.

As for city country, I do like how they figure Waqa Blake with his 4 NRL games is more worthy of a spot than someone like James Tedesco.

Agree with that. I don't get why people say we need the same halves as last year when Hayne was our main attacking weapon. I don't think this would even be up for discussion if Adam Reynolds was fit.

I have always found Jared Waerea-Hargreaves to be one of the worst players in the NRL.

My favourite player :lol:

He can be a grub but I'd love to have him at the Broncos.

Those City/Country teams are really poor, so many guys out of position and off the top of my head the likes of Fensom, Tedesco, Tolman, Leilua & Ennis missing.

So looks like the Titans will lose Elgey & Sezar for DCE.

Still don't think its worth it, would be funny if they lost all three though. :lol:

Personally think they would've been better off retaining Elgey, Sezar & throwing some big dollars at Merrin.

24 hours later Elgey now staying with the Titans.

At the ground. Game will be called off. Devastating.

Yeah just saw pics on Fox Sports, crazy shit.

Rain isn't gonna stop anytime soon either.

-PB

Yeah steady rain still. Should say word isn't official yet but international players can't be risked out here.

Talk the game will be switched to tomorrow. Find that unlikely given more rain predicted. Either happens tonight or cancelled imo

Game postponed till Sunday

Yep. Watch the fight then straight to the game. Great Sunday sesh!

This Tonga-Samoa game is a ripper

Kasiano with one of the best try saving plays you'll ever see. Game of the season.

Sunday arvo test tomorrow sounds fantastic, friday nights are stinkers for rep games anyway.

Yep day games are always better. Shittest thing about being in Brisbane is they always play fucking Friday nights.

There is nothing better than a crisp winters day watching the footy but nah, Friday Night Broncs is law now in the NRL.

Nine want dat TV money.

-PB

Crowd looks small for this test.

Thought about going, glad i didn't now. Tickets were not cheap and Australia are going to get pumped.

IMO these games should not be played in Sydney or Brisbane and instead be spread to places like Townsville, Melbourne and Newcastle as well as Wellington, Christchurch or Dunedin in NZ. Sydney and Brisbane get origin anyway.

They need to throw the book at Reynolds, he's a danger to everyone on the field.

Have been saying this for a while now but Sheens needs to go.

What did you expect? Its a rescheduled match :-k

+1. Meaningless game to people in brisbane. Should be shared around

Would be quite happy if he never played a game for the Bulldogs again.

Don't know why he keeps getting picked for rep shit.

-PB

He's just a solid player but he's primarily picked for his thuggery, every pass/last tackle by an opposition playmaker he'll be there putting on either a late or high shot. Every play the ball he's involved in both attack and in defence he'll be throwing elbows, arms in the face, etc.

From memory he's 'kicked' someone four times in his last twelve or so games. I fear if the NRL don't throw the book at him, one day he'll break someones leg. :(

I must have missed the shoulder charge too, only just saw it on the replay.

-PB

The Warriors are building one hell of a team, great depth in almost every position.

Well done to the Cowboys on re-signing Ethan Lowe, probably the most underrated forward in the comp. =d>
