Jordan Rapana is a grubby mouthy deadshit

Bunnies have played some pretty football tonight

4 losses on the bounce for the Raiders

Mackerzzzz

Not the best ever performance from the bunnies last night - Defence especially.

Although benji sure does still have some brilliance left in him!

What do people think of Walker in fullback? I think he just needs some time there and he could be something special. I prefer him there with benji and Reynolds in halfs. Mitchel in centres?

What about this backline:

Halfs. Marshal
Halfs. Reynolds
Wing. Johnston
Centre. Mitchel
Centre. Greyham
Wing. Gagi
Fullback. Walker

(Yes I know I spelt some names wrong)

i was thinking last night how good those 3 looked combining in attack. And will Latrell get back in to the side. But then Walker dropped that bomb. Benji looks just as average as ever on defense. And they are paying Latrell far too much to play him at centre.

It's good to have options because Benji isn't going to play like that every week.

Jack Wighton was unplayable in the last 10 minutes and grumpy old Wayne isn't going to be happy with it

Also, if you need a pick-me-up today, watch Sticky's press conference from last night. Apparently the Raiders only have themselves to blame (here are all teh ways the ref fucked us, again, like they do every time we lose). But I'm not a whinger!

Looks great as long as Reynolds' back holds up.

Actually discussing that at breakfast this morning and some agreement that Souths appear to be in second gear.

He has the worst rotations in the NRL, who seriously only uses a starting prop for 20 minutes. (especially after resting one of his star props). So technically he is part right, he only has himself to blame

They wont move Latrell back to centre, but having optons is great. Part fo the reason Latrell is at Souths was so he could play fullback (and earn fullback money).

No doubting that backline has talent and multiple players can cover multiple positions which also helps when someone breaks down as they invariably do

This could get ugly for the Broncos. Titans have scored two tries with their first two sets.

@dice ~~3 in 13 min~~s...

4 in 14 lol .....very ugly

Dice

@bayimports Insanely bad defense.

Dice

It took almost 20 minutes for the Broncos to get inside the Titans half.

Dice

Broncos with two tries to make it a contest.

Dice

Crazy half of footy.

22 all now.

mariner4life

One of the more entertaining games of rugby league you will ever watch

That's some comeback. Would love to know who on field took charge at 0-22

Dice

Sam Walker is living up to the hype.

And another try assist for him. That's 5 for the game. I think that puts him at the top of the comp for try assists and he's only played 5 games.

Dice

Warriors with a good start. Up 10 - 0.

Rocco Berry scores his first NRL try.

The Walsh kid looks great. What a steal!

@canefan He's slick. He, Nikorima and RTS are combining well today.

FFS, why on earth does NRL have refs if you can just shoulder an attacker out of the way and then get it reviewed it by the TMO and then have them say there was no obstruction.

Might as well just go to schoolboy games where we just argue for a minute about the decision and then carry on.

You know other clubs are going to get that call vs the Warriors
