General NRL 2023 Finals Week 2 - General Discussion - Storm vs Roosters

[Bruce]

That knock on by Melbourne really pisses me off. Three on field officials and a bunker miss it.

 

[Inruin]

That half flipped around. Storm looked dominant and by the end they were just hanging on

 

[Mr Drag]

Strong finish from the chooks

Smith and Teddy look out of gas

 

[sup42]

A Storm Roosters final at ten six you would assume has been an epic contest.

You gotta laugh that the low scoreline is a result of substandard attack.

Feeling a lot better about last week with our injuries, just goes to show no one can play well without their star.

 

[BarnesNZ]

Doesn't feel like a classic elimination...prolly cause JWH etc missing....let's see 2nd half

Smith and Teddy look out of gas

Smith looks gassed just walking out of the tunnel at the start of the game

 

[Bay39er]

Thanks bro..but they defiantly weren't put onside by the kicker the whole team ran up infront of kicker then tackled..I've seen this many times now...I only ask cause it it seems totally illegal so I think I'm going mad..

Ask @Ref but I think it is one or the other

Either be put inside by the kicker

Or

Give the catcher 10m before engaging him

 

[The Shah of Iran]

Thought the Storm were going to run away with it to begin with but the Roosters have fought back. Just cannot see either beating the Panthers.

It'll be a bloodbath

 

[Worried2Death]

I’ve never seen anyone run like their back is nailed to a block of wood quite like Christian Welch. It’s like watching Keaton’s Batman out there

Bro I was thinking the same about Teddy, I said there's two of them running around like they're nailed to a cross

 

[Zarjaz]

Doesn't feel like a classic elimination...prolly cause JWH etc missing....let's see 2nd half

JWH vs NAS in an elimination final would have been epic.

 

[regenerated borg]

Two teams I don't like... get sick of seeing them both in the finals all the time... don't care who wins or loses really..

 

[WahsaurusRex]

He even turns like him

Yeah who gives a shit, they'd both get pumped next week. Up the wahs, unemotive cyborg.

 

[Bruce]

Smith getting criticized for letting Wishart through but the line was uneven and his outside defender had rushed ahead and left the gap.

Yeah Keary has a habit of doing that

 

[WahsaurusRex]

Bro I was thinking king the same about Teddy, I said there's two of them running around like they're nailed to a cross

I haven’t noticed him so much, but now that you bring it up.. to be fair it is hard to catch him actually running when he is always slipping over half a second after he catches the ball

 

[Mr Drag]

Yeah who gives a shit, they'd both get pumped next week. Up the wahs, unemotive cyborg.

The real game starts tomorrow!

 

[Beastmode]

Penrith gonna treat these two teams like road kill next week

 

[Bruce]

Just checking the stats. Rorters are the better team. I think they will go on with it
