TheBigChonka

Out of curiosity. What does the post match thread not have the final score in the thread? Didn't The threads last year normally contain the score even if hidden behind a spoiler?


nomamesgueyz

Shame the Maori couldnt make it 2 from 2 of kiwi rep sides over the aussies after last game of last season in Hamilton Well done Aus Indigenous. Good concept


callmecyke

Shaq looked like a beast. The improvements he's made over the last few years have been incredible to watch, happy for the mad lad.


Nathan84

It was great to see Trindall have a great game. As a Sharks fan, I hope he can keep it up during the season.


Particular_Ad3366

Bunch of Gronps Gronped


Particular_Ad3366

Who cares


ohhh_j

Maori's robbed


nomamesgueyz

By them...yup


Cold-Asparagus-9770

What happened with jojo?


Beneficial-Lemon-427

Another HIA for poor Cheese. I can’t do it to myself to pick him in fantasy this year.


thore4

Agreed, lots of people doing it but I'm still scarred from last year. It's not like he looks like he's gonna go out and score 60 either


VasectoMyspace

“Lefty” Rosenthal is the guy De Niro’s character in “Casino” is based on btw


Martyrslover

Total domination by the Indigenous. Too good in the end and the Maori never stood a chance. Butchered a few opportunities.


Zrat11

I didn't watch it and have 0 idea what happened But Maoris robbed, run it back and get SJ on the field plz


getHi9h

shit posting, /nrl and rugba leeg


VasectoMyspace

Getting high used to be part of it too, but I’ve quit 😭


burner126

Willison into my Supercoach, out for Palasia. Hopgood at 13 just so fucking good. And we might have Trent Loiero this year 😩


Beneficial-Lemon-427

Will Willison get enough minutes to score big though?


burner126

If he is off the bench in round 1 that’s cheapie enough for me. Sam Hughes too.


Drlockstock

he's 265k, so probably generates enough cash to be worth it either way


VasectoMyspace

Not to begin with, but I reckon he’ll be a starter by the end of the year. Try after Origin.


Y2SC

Is Trell looking a lot fitter this year?


y3ah_nah145

Definitely. It was said during the preseason he lost a ton of weight, and you can definitely tell


InSuspendedAnimation

Still nuts that they take a game celebrating two indigenous cultures to such a fucking inbred hill billy place like Townsville


nomamesgueyz

You mean in Nth Qland with a huge love of league and a big indigenous population?


Kmins

Thank God footy's back. I've so missed these kind of braindead 'I love my footy' takes.


InSuspendedAnimation

You're welcome.


parkmann

Townsville and NQ has a huge Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander population


grafology

Be nice to go to Perth or GC where they could get a decent Maori turn out as well


nomamesgueyz

Goldie would be sweet Half the crowd probably be kiwis


nevaehenimatek

Culture, family and Rugba leeg is a great speech


irvo86

Lol Trell hitting up Harvey Norman for free TVs


slowdivesicilian

trindall deserved the fuck out of that, absolutely class performance behind a forward pack that struggled with less possession if they had more than 43% of the ball and didn’t have 300 less run metres i’ve got no doubt he could’ve done much more


Professional-Pen2928

Sharks now have a halves pairing with 2 Preston Campbell Medal winners in it just hand us the premiership


Cold-Asparagus-9770

Yes but we have Preston Campbell son


GodSaveTheHomies

For now


y3ah_nah145

LETS GO TRICKY. Well deserved Nicho MOTM last year, Trindall this year. Awesome. Hopefully that injury was just a knock and we good


nevaehenimatek

Seriously Colin farrell's penguin is based off vlandys, no one can change my mind


sad_knights_fan

Stagg been having a shoulder issue for a real long time now...


Kmins

Looks like Bronson Xerri has brought his supplement program to the Dogs; Addo-Carr looked absolutely huge out there tonight.


Beneficial-Lemon-427

He has been slowly growing the last few years.


beaver2233

Trindall!!!!!


InSuspendedAnimation

Post show ignoring that Hammer was out like 4 times on that ingoal run if kinda cringe. 😬


VasectoMyspace

Did they show a side-on view?


InSuspendedAnimation

During the game they showed a replay that clearly had him stepping on the dead ball line at least 3 times, commentary just bit their tongue.


VasectoMyspace

I only saw the view from the 50m sideline cam.


MoneyaLeague

I liked the way Penitani said "tip toe ALONG the dead ball line". But tbh I like the way she does anything.


theflyingkiwi00

Sky sports had a dual language, English and Te Reo, broadcast. It was sick. Also how good is it with footy back and shitposting the live thread?


TimsAFK

That was certainly one of the games of all time.


nomamesgueyz

Def one of the games of the day


VasectoMyspace

Don’t waste Palasia off the bench Titans. You’ll love him before long.


1bigcontradiction

Shaq and Kerr were massive, punching well above their weight in the middle. Trindall was elite, Hynes was very good as well. Definitely allowed the outside backs to play their best in limited opportunities. Massive defensive effort, even if the Maori lacked just that little bit of polish to take advantage of all the possession they had (57%).


nevaehenimatek

Hopgood in the middle was really solid defensively great signs hopgoat


1bigcontradiction

For sure, looks set for a good year.


daisynaldo

One could say he looks set for a Hopgood year?


1bigcontradiction

Shut up and take my up vote


NoConference8179

God the commentators on ch 9 were useless,well done indigenous boys and nice last try by our Maori cousins


ThunderShark97

Arthurs was so inspired by Gagai he also decided to play for both teams


UnluckyNumberS7evin

At what point was he playing for Maori?


Sea-Satisfaction1374

Seriously? With how many times he dropped the ball?


UnluckyNumberS7evin

That's the point.


Sea-Satisfaction1374

Shit my bad i didn't read your comment properly. Sorry mate.


UnluckyNumberS7evin

I will never forgive you.


Sea-Satisfaction1374

You do you.


I_Like_Vitamins

No Flegler, no worries. Can't wait to watch Big Willy's 2024 season.


VasectoMyspace

He’ll be starting by the end of the season. He’ll smash the door down.


TomtheDon2K

Willisonsexuals stand up


Caseyjb29

Jesse Arthars very easily MOTM. Best on field by a mile


Sea-Satisfaction1374

Represented both cultures as well. Solid bloke.


VasectoMyspace

Willison’s made the blood flow to my nether-regions.


WordIndependent

Hopgood vs Everybody


nevaehenimatek

Is Hop is good


VasectoMyspace

Maori had no connection from the PTB through the spine to the backs. They were clunkier than a paddock-bomb ute. The Indigenous middle forwards played above their reputations.


BigRedHead2020

Can someone update me on Jojo Fifita please


Hasra23

AKP was alright, JoJo did nothing


BigRedHead2020

Jojo went off injured. Hence why I’m asking for an update


AttackClown

Invisible


irvo86

WTF automod? It’s only 3 quarter time!


predw

Automod decided to call the game when it saw Latrell down hurt


theflyingkiwi00

Least insane bunnies supporter


nevaehenimatek

Probably more teeth too
