    You weren't down by 20 at half time either. Kinda weird that you have no idea what the score was at different points of a match you attended.

    Toolman's perfectly accurate point about DCE having a bathtub full of linebreak assists at Manly and the best you can do is some speculative bullshit about a reserve grader. Jesus dude, you're grasping.

    Webster by a fair way imo. Having to deal with the halves injuries, the travel etc. Mammoth effort.

    What's everyones thoughts on the wild card round in the afl? I figure it'll definitely come in to the nrl next year.

    I actually don't mind the idea of it once there's at least 19 teams. Not because it gives teams 9 and 10 a chance to win a comp, but more so that it further rewards teams good enough to finish in the top 6.

    Would also have the added bonus of this weekends games meaning something. Headed toward a pretty pointless round of footy. They really need to up the prize money for minor premiers/ladder finishing positions rather than the round you get eliminated from the finals

    Would be my choice, most had Knights finishing bottom 4. What he's managed to get out of a very ordinary forward pack has been incredible.

    Still managing to push the Warriors last week with 12 men on the field for 60mins was incredible.

    Webster is a good shout though given the injury toll they've had in the halves and still managing to finish minimum of top 2, potentially minor premiers. Just think even then Holbrook had far less to work with.

    I'd rather a week off before the GF so we dont have anyone miss one over a head knock. Could have a 3rd place play-off for cash or something, idk.

    No better way to cap off a 6 error performance than being hit by a Trellmit freight train lol. Tough night for Rodwell haha.

    Lol. At. Cronulla.

    Flick pass from Grant was pure as it gets.

    That debut from Black was something special. Breaking Amos Roberts and Andrew Johns' record for points on debut. Good thing Broncos don't need a half lol.

    Penrith's right edge is very vulnerable. Bash the middle and shift left. Be interesting to see which teams exploit it because it's blatant.

    Fainu was making some serious in roads down that side once they benched Luai.

    Very good atmosphere at the ground yesterday. Penrith getting a minor premiership in year 7 of this run is so incredible.
