NRL Finals Discussion

[ljandkg]

Thanks for your thoughts....I was going spare at Maxwell. I agreed with Sterlo and Gould (and that's a first), I just coulnd't see the strips, slowing down that the Warriors were getting pinged for... I thought Locke's leg tackle penalty was pathetic....no harm done and he put him on the deck - as Gould said happens 50 times a game...

13 minute mark - Maxwell actually WINKED to the Tigers after giving them a penalty! That's NOT good practise

Warriors have a good record in Melbourne and won there this year. Shaun Johnson has hardly fired a shot in the playoffs yet....he's due....

selling Warroirs short there. That win had a lot of finals character. Tigers blew it. Some of the stripping penalties were plain silly by warroiors(still having problems saying it LOL) and Tigers knew how to milk a few too. The way warriors stuck to the task was impressive for me and i'm not discounting. Improvement on discipline alone will put them in the hunt. Can not believe i'm saying this..but when they go straight..impressive. Broncos were hands down the best team week1. Sorry guys but very reminiescent of storms out the gate performance in week1 of finals in 2009. best team performance since but feel there's a cracker comming up. Storm need to ramp up to win this year they are vunerable..not out of it by any means and think Bronos will only lose this year due to lack of experience.. the old heads input is the card to be played. Finals footy is a whole new ball game. This year will be, like i said before, a cracker. Goodluck to those still in the game. Nice to see those ex parra players ripping...if onlyyyyyyy.

Storm will win comfortably IMO. They have been in cruise control for a couple of week waiting for these last couple of games. I expect NZ to feel the full force of a Melbourne Storm lightning bolt to the date.

Everyone said that last time warriors beat them from 8th spot. and the warriors have improved heaps since then.

Best thing to happen was Warriors winning last night, they be no complacency from Broncos. I'll hear Dave yelling from here. LOL. Predicting one massive hit on Soward by Hodges, before he limps off good luck on the 17th pick Girds. Streak like that you must be a Sports bet millionaire, nah don't even thonk about it.

Go the Dragons, lets spoil the fairytale for Lockyer

Well if thats what happened last time, then that must be what is going to happen again. My mistake.

Thanks
I thought so.

 

[wolvesjr34]

well Lockyer is heading for a fairytale perhaps? Credit to Dragons they fought hard and didn't give up... but Soward may regret kicking on the 4th tackle now though. Grats to Broncos.

 

[Diggaz TC]

Great game!

So next week i'll be going for the Warriors and Broncos.

Yeeeeahhh Budayyyyyyy

Laters soward you poof. Highlight of the night was
When they put the camera on his oversized head at the end of the game. I must say though i have got a lot more resepect for morris gutsy effort playing with a broken leg.

 

[ooneil]

Great game - bad luck Dragons fans. I guess Benny and Darius can start packing their bags for Newcastle tomorrow.

 

[sharkies4eva]

i've never been so happy to see the broncs win but it looks like locky is gone

 

[ChrisW77]

Cracking game Dragons did well to hang on then nearly steal it but as usual MR Lockyer saves the donkeys bacon. They'll be stuffed without him next year. Warriors I'm still pissed that you beat my Tigers . Best of luck to all the rest of the teams still going.

 

[steven1959]

Congrats to Broncs. Dragons can hold their heads high. Ifff i was a supporter, they threw everything at the broncos. Morris effort was so gutsy. Gave us the cracker game it promised. thankyou. Show moves to Sydney. Yehhhaaa.

 

[AyiosYiorgos]

Very proud of the boys no shame in losing as long as the effort is there and it was...
I reckon Lockyer has a depressed fracture of the cheek bone could be his last game..

How do you figure that??

 

[AyiosYiorgos]

Just my opinion, there has to be some sort of fracture

How do you figure that??

Thought maybe you may have heard something.

Just having a look on twitter for news and have noticed that Roy Asotasi has changed his picture to his Select Sketch card. I wonder how many players collect their own cards?

 

[AyiosYiorgos]

wonder if he personalised it, "To Roy All the best.. Roy Asotasi"
