the worst part is being made to look a fool for suggesting we would beat souths. WHAT WAS I FUCKEN THINKING HEY.

I'm not saying the refs are shit, but is it too much for the ****s at Channel Nine to show a replay of every penalty so we can judge for ourselves? Not just showing a replay when they feel like it?

I'm too old for this shit

Forgot to put my tips in on friday and missed both fri night games where I would have tipped the winners. Fail.

you tipped Souths didn't you you white ant







WHY ALWAYS SOUTHS

join my class action against the refs, channel nine, Benji, God, the ARLIC, Allah and Jesus

Still can't work out how the fuck we lost that.

I loved Freddie explaining the differences with the special Heritage ball yesterday.

"... and it's also a different colour."

I hope Manly didn't spend too much money from their cap securing DCE. I hate to see what a whole season looks like without the services of Glen Stewart, Jamie lyon and Tony Williams.

It's just a premiership hangover. We will be right.

Wests on the other hand.... LOL!

we're just having a pre-premiership hangover

Zodiac we have remarkably similar post counts and like counts

also who is that in your avatar, Hotman Paris Machupichu?

Doesn't get easier for the Tigers does it? Broncs on Friday night.

I think the Tigers should let Robbie and Benji's ego's go toe to toe at half time inside a UFC octagon to once and for all decide who gets to bum Tim Sheens for the remainder of their careers.

The tigers just don't know how to finish teams off when they have a good lead.

Just like Melbourne

Melbourne? I remember hearing a stat that the last 22 times in a row they've been either level or in front at half time they have won.

Tigers haha

I actually liked to watch their team play before they became a pack of horrible losers

Melbourne just take their foot off the accelerator to save stamina for the week later.

Space Monkey - is it possible for you to take back those words about the Warriors roster being better than the Roosters one?

Jus' sayin'

Looks like not going to the pub to watch the Raiders tonight was a smart move - just listening to the call had me on the verge of self harm.

7/8 in tipping this week

why oh why did i think the titans would beat the doggies :\

just in case you're not trolling, I highly doubt Bellamy [Craig Bellamy: He is the Melbourne Storm coach] would approve of his players doing that. Or any coach for that matter.

If he wanted to rest a player he would sub him off.

same old problem........can't score when we get into the opposition 30m and too many first up missed tackles. We can score long range tries, but every time we start a set in the opposition 30, we seem to panic and go one out trying to barge over the line. It really baffles me. In defence, we miss too many first-up tackles and we allow teams too much second phase ball. when you allow thurston and bowen second phase ball, they will carve you up and that's precisely what happened.

With the injury list the Raiders were carrying, they never stood a chance imo.

Yeah, the structure attacking the line hasn't looked good for a couple of years. Also seems like if the Raiders aren't "on" in terms of completions in the first five minutes you can pretty much call the game off then and there.

I know it's the rule but torso try is gay. Im sorry but it's not control.

so the NRL wants to stamp out players getting their heads belted right

so far we've had four Tigers players get knocked senseless (Benji twice, Ryan and Moltzen), No suspensions resulting and only one on field penalty.

Crocker didn't get suspended for ironing out Moltzen on the weekend. come on this isn't Brett Fingerpopper Stewart we're talking about, it's a Tigers player, take some action Gallop.

In all seriousness Pritchard has a right to feel dudded by the NRL and their piss poor one week crusade against head injuries.

the guys that took the field were all experienced first graders, there are no excuses there. You can't blame injuries for missed tackles. Sure we miss the angle running of Dugan, but the coach has to have the structures in place to deal with it and the one-out football we use when we are in the attacking 20 is terrible

crocker should be on the sideline. i hate that ****.

This has to be the coach's fault innit? Do the Raiders have a specialist backline coach? If not, they should hire one quick.

I think you can. In my view, the missed tackles and the mess that was the raiders in attack looked like they were linked. with all the injuries, you guys lost a lot in attack, go forward and confidence. I thought the raid er s were going to be kept scoreless, the players probably thought so too. They will never admit it, but I think at some level they gave up putting their bodies on the line if they couldnt score the points to win the game.

yeah but Crocker's never really done anything wrong before so it makes sense

pretty sure he won the Nobel Peace Prize once

it's just poor coaching. Whenever Campese comes back into the side, we seem to lose structure in attack. It's a bit like the Canterbury sides of the last three years.........clueless inside the opposition 30. Campese organises the backline way too flat which is a great way to attack when you have high quality ball players and runners outside you, but we don't, so all it does is give the backline less time.

My mate reckons a pretty decent source has told him the Roosters have signed the Stewart Brothers

I guess with Gerry Beale going to the Dragons they'd be out of the race for Brett

They wont have signed both because G.Stewart isnt off contract yet. Happy to see The Rapist Snake go, too injury prone.

i thought we were out of the race to sign stewert - hope its not true, dont rate him anymore tbh

plus we got roger tuivasa-sheck coming through what a fkn gun he is

yeah but Manly would always let Glenn go where his brother goes. lol fags

also they would probably appreciate the cash, they need it for their halves and would prob. rather keep Tony Williams than Stewart at this stage.

anyway this guy reckons his source is good but so does everyone hey

Unconfirmed rumour that Tony Williams is looking at terms with the Dogs. Not getting my hopes up though as this time last week "We basically had Cronk" . But Prichard on one end and T-Rex on the other would be sweet dreaming though.

They shouldn;t need one next week, as long as your forwards get up in our faces Mateo will drop enough ball and Ropati miss enough tackles inside our 20 to gift even the most shithouse backline a decent score...

Really not interested in Tony Williams, I hope we don't sign him.

Enough young pups coming through the grades to fill out the squad.

The fact that Marty Taupau can't get a run says wonders about our backrow depth.

Along with Finucane and Jackson, no real room for Williams.

Unless Des does a bit of spring cleaning in the off-season, which he might.

Nope, I still reckon our roster is better, we just played like a bunch of busted arseholes on the weekend. Your centres are better though (seeing as our only decent centre (Inu) apparently CBF turning up to training or turns up and fucks around, and hence never gets picked).

Not my forwards mate, I'm a Rabbitoh, but point taken.
