    Wow the gap between the haves and the have nots has never been bigger. 3 brutal reamings this weekend. With the quick play and more ball in play there is no way for the shit teams to hide.

    There are 3 defined levels at the moment, and only injuries can change the balance.

    @mariner4life Yep pretty much. You can see it in the line speed with the below par sides. They can't give away penalties to slow momentum so fatigue sets in quicker where they can't move up, with manly and North queensland being the worst culprits.

      Cody Walker has quit the highlight reel of dirty shit from yesterday. What a fuckhead.

      I've seen 3 different acts that deserve a ban each

        Just watched Raiders v Titans. The skill level is so much better than Aotearoa rugby currently. Try saving tackles are spectacular and regular in Nrl. And Rapana try was a real gem with amazing skills

          Cowboys got hammered by a team I don't even expect to make the 8. Terrible showing so far from them, they are a mile behind.

          Titans need to win games against teams like the Raiders to prove they belong.

            We’re playing pretty well. Two best fullbacks in the game having a big influence on the game.

            A couple of costly lapses by us (Tavaga again...) that the Chooks have capitalised on.

              It's a good game. Solid hits and end to end attack.

                Maumalo is such a poor defender.

                  Might not be a popular opinion but geez league is boring.

                  I'll admit they have less breaks, or at least shorter breaks.

                  But I just find me the tackles stopping the action tedious.

                  Even though I have a dog on this fight.

                  Want the Warriors to win and will follow them but Imuch like the Phoenix, Breakers etc just can't watch the game.

                  Lets gone Warriors. Hope to wake up to a win in the a.m.

                    Some dumb goal line attack by us. Why go the flat option close to the ruck and defensive line out of dummy half is beyond me.

                    Now they’ve gone the length after we cough it up.

                      Warriors look out in their feet and the defensive line is piss weak

                        Missing Fonua-Blake for his carries. We're really struggling to get up field.

                          The fucking Roosters

                          Missing both starting halves, as well as their captain and #1 hooker and they are still fucking good.

                          Wait we're not dead yet. Wait yes we are, the fuck with your hand Ken?

                                I'm going to take responsibility for that one. I watched a Warriors game for the first time this season.

                                I have followed them in the past (a lot) but some might say that I had "lost the faith".
                                After hearing about the win last week, I reluctantly perched on the tailgate of the bandwagon and chimed in a bit playing the triangle occasionally. It was an error on my part. They will not win if I am watching.

                                  @snowy well don’t tune into the next two weeks because if there are two teams that I love the Warriors beating, it’s the Manly and the Dragons.

                                  Watch in three weeks when we play the Storm because we will likely get towelled up

                                      @paekakboyz I mentioned above that I had lost Faith. Not many get away, but I am a bit concerned that Aura may have gone missing for a while too.

                                        @snowy, shit! This is most concerning. We just can't sit around while Aura goes walkabout (again)... hopefully some friendly council staff find Aura while doing another inspection of your estate!

                                          @paekakboyz Council staff don't leave my estate so nobody would ever know.

                                          I suspect Aura may be hanging out with the Crusaders coach waiting for a chance to flaunt her stuff again.
