    Would love to see Nelson Asofa-Solomona back in Union. Looks really destructive and has a good offloading game. Hopefully he sees the light and comes back.

      Tight game, the Bronco outside backs tackled like heroes all game and kept them in it.

      Strange game from the Melbourne attack really, seemed the whole plan was give it to Billy, and it nearly cost them.

      If you want a laugh find a page on Facebook called The Ankle Tapper, especially when Brisbane lose. It's canerbry-esque

          Was a pretty good battle last night and a great kick to finish. That early broncos try really set up the game. Gave them a sniff and they almost took it!

            We're dominating and finally crack them to score first

                  I sometimes think they just make up rules as they go along.

                  Anyway, I turned over and watched at halftime in the Blues v Crusaders game and saw a try each and both teams looking cabbage. Lots of Graham bitching and moaning too but it's ok because he's PASSIONATE! OUR GAME!!!

                      Have been channel surfing between the rugby and the cricket + the Warriors... finally got that second try, and the Bulldogs fullback is playing with all the fear of being under an actual bomb at the back...

                      Ah fuck. And the Bulldogs score...

                          Fuck i hate the Warriors. I hate how i invest time in them. I hate how it doesn't matter who is in the team or who is the coach, we suck. When is our upswing?

                          Fucking Cronulla won a comp with grubs and ild blokes, we can't even win in NZ away from Mt Smart!

                          In shory, burn the joint to the ground and start again. Somewhere else.

                              Mannering is our best player by far in the first 3, followed by Lillyman.

                                  I used to call Mannering rugby league Reuben (ducks for cover in case Canerbry and Stargazer are lurking in the league thread) but he's clearly one of the best and most consistent Warriors around these days.

                                      Just to illustrate how fucking shit we are, Manly, who are a basketcase on and off the field, have just gone to Townsville and flogged the Cowboys.

                                      We can't even go to Dunedin and beat a team that:

                                      1. Hasn't won since some time last year; and
                                      2. Travelled from Sydney.

                                      We suck. This season is a bust.

                                        Cowboys are missing a few key players but still - Manly winning 30-8 in Townsville? Impressive.

                                        Great defensive work by Manly, they tackled everything and anything for the final 20 mins. Uate was impressive and so were two former Warriors, Shaun Lane and Lewis Brown.

                                          That was as bad as i've seen the Cowboys play in many years. In saying that they finished the game with the following first choice players injured; Coote, Winterstein, O'Niel, Feldt, Taumalolo, Scott. That's nearly half their starting 13.
