I don't mean to be biased but didn't that pass at the end look forward because of a little tip off from Darryn Lockyer?
I feel bad for this, because he's a child-molesting Manly player, but I wish Brett Stewart hadn't had as many injuries of late. NSW and potentially Australia would've been better for it.
Tiquiri was ****ing hopeless. Worst perfomance of the whole tournament. Seriously cant believe Sheens changed the team back to the first two weeks after we smashed the kiwis in week 3. Tiquiri cost us the game and should be abolished from playing for ever. Also lol @ Tate. Hope the **** retires.
Lockyer possibly failed to catch it because he was expecting it to be thrown backwards instead of 200 mtrs forward.
You ****s have absolutely no sympathy. I feel for the bloke (the bloke being Tate). I don't care who you are being forced out of the game is not a nice thing. Even if it was Adrian Purtell I wouldn't be happy, I would still feel for him. The poor bloke just signed a new deal to a new club FFS and now his career is potentially over!
Was Sheens the Aussie coach when Lote signed? Wouldn't be surprised if he said to him he'd do whatever he could to get him in the Aussie team if he signed with the Tigers.
While this may be true, he has been under immense pressure such as high balls, and been extremely reliable, which is not easy in SOO. Boyd's still a better club player than either of them IMO, and his Origin experience means he should be next in line afaic. I like Dugan but he shouldn't be in calculations for Test RL.
So my brother's work had a corporate box for the game. In the box next to theirs was all the NRL dignitaries like Gallop and selectors like Carr and Fulton. Anyway, one of the fellas from his work got angry after losing a massive bet on Australia and went next door and abused them for picking Tuquri and how they went about it. Would have been so good to see.
