2020 NRL Season

Flanagan went MIA, our last tackle plays were horrendous all night. I don’t dislike the guy but if you’re in the team as a halfback and you’re not creating anything at least put some polish to end of sets and try to organise the team a bit. Big risk putting Lam in though, we only got to see him for one game there before he got injured.

You’re right about SBW, he’s shown enough in his return to suggest he’s still capable it’s just time and match sharpness that he’s lacking.

Just feels like we’ve almost run out of time to figure out the right 17.

 

of course they're a chance. around at 27% chance according to the current sportsbet price.

 

You can see they still lack experience around closing games out. They started celebrating the win after the Stephen Crichton try and then again after the field goal.

Will come with experience still a very green group of players. Probably learnt a bit of a lesson last night.

For that reason I find it a little hard to get a read on the game whether the Roosters come back was a factor of a drop off from the Panthers or the Roosters just grew into the game because the Roosters largely controlled that 2nd half outside of a ridiculous Tupou offload and that Fisher Harris charge down Panthers really struggled to get prolonged periods of time in good ball during the 2nd half.

Probably leaning more towards Penrith were the better side when it mattered and dropped off a touch when they went 18pts ahead.

 

Knights are very similar to Parra, showed a lot in the first half of the comp but just fell away sharply.

Souths have had a better 2nd half to the season and Bennett seems to have them primed.

 

Geez Braith Anasta is going to be hard to stomach this finals series.

Despite really enjoying streaming from Kayo this year I may switch back to 9 for the finals.

 

Kane Evans defensive work in that Papenhuyzen try is criminal for a first grader.

How he is still in the top grade is beyond me.

Could've been such a good player, just so lazy and clumsy.

 

lol Eels fans around the world all just registered minor heart attacks watching Ferguson waiting to put the grubber down.

 

2 minutes later Ferguson gives every Parra fan another heart attack trying to defuse a bouncing ball on the other end of the field.



Somewhere in the world SKD is sitting there a proud mentor.

 

Guthesron had to do better then on Brenko Lee... its finals time ffs put your body on the line.
