NRL Round Discussion NRL Round 1, 2024 Discussion

[sup42]

When you realise a boring normal NRL game between two teams you have no interest in......

Will check the final score after smashing some gaming.

Gotta wonder if any Yanks are still watching with any interest now.

A bit of a weird one as Collins stayed in the same place. If he ran forward he's offside as he is in front of the kicker. So he pretty much stood still.

Radley was more the issue he looked like he ran towards Collins out of habit but also looked like he wanted to hide behind him. Then stood next to him which makes them take up more space and create a wall.

Good call by the Broncos to challenge.

Pretty smart of the guy attempting the charge down to divert his run into or in front of the wall. Or lucky. Changing his direction made it look worse than it could have been

All the experts said this is Souths year!

was not impressed or scared of either - match fitness low being a factor sure, but both were missing that extra something - probably an example of what an average nrl game will look like this season

This US experiment would never have worked in the biff days of the 80's and 90's. Bold move from the NRL, game's come a long way.

Be interesting if Brisbanes fitness and creativeness will get em over the line.

How is that not a penalty try?

It's a damn good question....

sit him out for the next 700 weeks with the bro zyon.
different outcome but same illegal tackle.

All that talk on NRL360 about Cobbo and a secret/special flick pass. Joey Manu "hold my beer".

Walsh running out of the line didn't help. Should have been running across behind the defensive line. Mind you with his defence it would have just been a body there.

 

[3rdstriker]

Go Roosters just to shutout Walsh and broncs

 

[WahsUltras]

Broncos lack of depth and spark of the bench is showing.

 

[Inruin]

Broncos don't have any answers.

Cobbo at centre is going to be interesting for the rest of the season.

 

[marv.]

im sure the atmosphere there is next level, but its not really translating well through the tv.

boring games as well isn’t really helping.

it just feels something like a saturday afternoon raiders titans mid season game to me.

i’ll have it on in the background but hardly even worth cracking open a cold one.

Cobbo at centre is going to be interesting for the rest of the season.

It will be a case of getting shape and getting Cobbo into position to run on to the ball. Chances are it will be a sweep play out to the back to Walsh who will through a skip pass to the winger.

They get a target a bit closer in field when they put up a bomb.

Man the wind has been sucked out of this game. The first game it was like the crowd were up the whole game.

As I type that the crowd goes up as the Broncos score.

It's always funny seeing the teammates coming to Celebrate a try jumping on the player almost knocking him over.

fucking knob.

First game was far more open. Couple if mid table teams.

If this last 20 minutes opens up it could be better. That 5m is a bit more telling with these two teams

Oh you watching now! How's that beer?

 

[Up the guttz]

The RW glazing by the commentary is next level!!!!!

Vossy sounds so condescending to the US audience that’s not gunna fly over there.
