NRL 2021

i thought Melbourne looked out of ideas for most of the 2nd half. Yes they were losing the territory battle, but they didn't fire too many shots at a team that was coming hard for them. It looks like it all comes down to Munster and Papenhauzen doing something awesome.
Souths will go a long way this year, i forgot they picked up Arrow, he's a gun. What the hell has happened to Cook's pass? is was ordinary last year as well.
@mariner4life Yeah his all round game is still a work in progress. Shut down Cam Murray and don't allow him to play the ball quickly and Cook runs out of ideas a bit as he doesn't have any real kicking game and his passing has always been a bit iffy out of dummy half.

Great entertaining first game. I don't think you can analyze too much out of this as it is a long season. Some players looked short of a gallop, while others definitely hit the ground running. Bunnies defense definitely improved when Arrow came on, time will tell how they try and manage his body, for me unlike the comms, he was their best player last night. Latrell and Walker look set to create a few problems too if they can stay fit.
Still, great game to kick off the season.

Big result for the warriors. Big for the titans as well, just not in a positive way.
Real haves and haves not weekend. You can put lines through St George, the Tigers, and Manly after only 1 week. The bulldogs as well probably. And quite possibly the cowboys.
Fans of Melbourne, the bunnies, the roosters, the panthers and Canberra can start booking finals tickets. 3 spots in the 8 look available.

Probably not how the warriors wanted to win, sure they will be happy with the points but it proved costly.
New signing Aitken out for 3-4 months (after making 16 tackles no misses). BSiro and Egan will miss a week each for failing their HIA. Just to make the hooking dilemma more complicated, they just released Lawton to move to a new club.
Great defensive effort for sure, but 5th tackle options from CHT were terrible. When he runs he looks ok, but his kicking game was woeful and still may face the judiciary for a leg trip. Kodi needs to demand the ball more if CHT is going to serve up that sh*t. Still against a Gold Coast team on the rise it was a good result.
Like @mariner4life says, looks like the top teams already split with the bottom with just a couple of spots up for grabs.

The end of season standings:
- Rabbitohs a lethal attack will give them the minor prem
- Panthers lost a little this year but still great
- Storm still the storm
- Roosters an aging team but with teddy
- Raiders could be better that 5th
- Knights a decent team
- Eels not sure about these guys
- Warriors this will be the best year in a long time
- Broncos look like a changed team so far
- Titans the brilliance countered out by rubbish
- Sharks Utter garbage that some how win games
- Sea eagles could be better if Tom stays fit
- Bulldogs A team on the up
- Cowboys Payten is a good coach but that's about it for them
- West tigers rubbish bar Nofoaluma
- Dragons Utter garbage
Panthers win grand final

NRL has lost the plot trying to show they care about women. Toby Rudolf issued a formal warning for showing a sense of humour in post-match interview. His comments about what he planned after winning:
"Probably about 1000 beers. Go to Northies [pub], try and pull something. Anything will do," Rudolf said. "No, honestly, it's all about recovery these days. I'll be going straight home, straight to the ice bath and staying very, very quiet."

Toby just needs to proclaim "who said anything about women?"
The "NRL rampant with systemic homophobia" headlines should then ensue. Checkmate
@siam I'd go the 'pulling' of a beer, any beer will do defence.

I saw the interview, it was unremarkable yet the official reaction is laughable.
Australia is in the grip of an epidemic of vapid hysteria at the moment, with wymminses determined to demonstrate that it is not a good idea to consider employing or promoting them beyond custodian of the Olivetti and a stenographer's pad, as part time casuals only.
The dopes are over-represented in the dying media, without the wit for alternative employment, and are conducting a last ditch newspaper campaign to bring down a government because it has blokes in it. Which is pretty much the same as the mob they want to install as its replacement, members of the same Uniparty. Brainless.
Just tonight the most prominent ABC current affairs donkey, on about half a million a year, complained about the r-eight-cism throughout her career against wymminses, with:
*"As an example, she said wireless microphones often used during public speaking engagements were designed for men’s clothes, and required a sturdy lapel, a heavy belt and a coat to cover it up.
“I’m always made to feel a little bit inconvenient,” she said.
There were other examples as well — such as being made to feel annoying for needing to use the toilet and being told her male counterpart never had that need; and male colleagues setting up windy filming locations suitable for men with short hair, but not women with long hair."*
That's it. That is all she had.
They are ever so amusing - with average luck in time the barren old witches will breed themselves out of the gene pool.
