OFMG that was a great try,

On the Titans discussions. It will be interesting to see how long they have patience with Hasler. They didn't last long with Holbrook.

Then if they recruit the team Hasler wants and it doesn't work out. When they part ways what shape their salary cap is in and if there ends up being employment or court cases.

He's had payouts and legal action against the Dogs and Manly hasn't he?

Left both clubs having to sort out their salary caps.

Lol. Faders back at it again

 

[Christchurch_Warrior]

Anyone been watching Tuku Hau Tapuha this season? He is massive and could be a recruitment target in a few years if he is any good.

 

[Christchurch_Warrior]

Raiders getting away with a lot in the ruck.

I’d still love to see an upset though

What constitutes an upset?

What constitutes an upset?

Canberra winning at Shark Park but looking less likely now..

 

[Mr Drag]

Cook Islands alright!

 

[FormerlyJamesW]

Canberra winning at Shark Park but looking less likely now..

Interesting. Fair take.

Personally would have expected (ironically) the Fades to win this as I thought they were in better form (Cleary a shit take )

Suppose Shark Park is pretty gnarly though.

 

[Christchurch_Warrior]

Sharks doing well considering they are missing 4 forwards that would be in their 17.

 

[Mr Drag]

Raiders mistakes have cost them!

 

[Christchurch_Warrior]

That was a beautiful pass from Rapana.

 

[KPWarrior]

Just saw the final score WTF?

the nrl ladder is meaningless at this point of the season. For goodness sake, the Dolphins are equal 1st at the moment. We all know they are a bottom 4 side this year. We are at a stage where all teams are going through injuries and consequently trying to do their best with their depth to remain competitive. It won't be at least another month I think before it becomes clear who are the contenders, who are fringe 8 sides and who are bottom 4 sides. It's just hilarious how schizophrenic the aussie media was in declaring manly, roosters and cowboys as definite top 4 sides based on the first 3 weeks. This week all three of those sides were exposed as having severe defensive frailties and many rungs below the top 2 (Penrith and Brisbane). Canberra also looked like world beaters before coming to Christchurch, but have failed to show they can match it with fellow contenders (Us and Cronulla) on the back of two successive losses for them. No one wins the premiership in the first month of the competition.

Yes and No.

Except for the Dophins and maybe Canberra replaced by us and Broncos, that’s your 8 there.

My condolences to Manly and Newcastle for missing the 8.

Watching the Raiders press conference absolute crack up, Sticky telling the media not to praise his players cause they were all useless and then drops and F bomb hahaha.

Nothing formal - but not a great look.

Taken away from the West Stand at half time on the St Johns golf buggy, Leg in a splint and covered by a blanket.
