It’s a bit dumb that Jack has to go up and give a speech after winning the Clive Churchill in a losing grand final.

Very intense game. Refereeing has been shite all season and the final didnt let us down.
That 6 more tackles call and then cancellation of his call (which can be seen clearly in the footage) is pretty dam bizarre. Feel sorry for the raiders there but hell if they had any sting in attack they would have scored earlier anyway. Roosters defence was massive. Players looked shot and then when they got the opportunity they took it.

Just caught the finish of the State Championship final between Burleigh and Newton.
Jets down by 6 and they score in the corner with 4-5 minutes to go. Conversion missed. Bears up by 2.
90 seconds to go and Jets got on attack in their attacking 10m and they turn it over.
Bears march it down and then kick for territory. Jets get ball back in their defensive half.
With seconds remaining a little chip kick over the defensive line and a lucky bounce and Jets go in for the try and the siren goes right after the Jets dot down for the try
Heartbreak for the Bears as they dominated for 75 minutes!

Watched a bit of the 9s yesterday.
Kangaroos beat the Kiwis fairly comfortably. The girls also lost their game to the Aussies as well.
Upset of the day was the Cook Islands smashing Tonga, 30 - 7.
Samoa also beat Fiji pretty easily too. I expected Fiji to do a bit better in this form of the game, but Samoa were very clinical.

@Dice I think the Kiwis will be better with the game under their belt.
I took immense pleasure from that Cooks v Tonga game, I feel about the Tonga league team like I feel about Ireland rugby ... they used to likeable, they got some success and a combo of their fans and team made them unlikeable.
I've been pissing off some leaguies on a league forum because I told them if it wasn't for frequenting that forum and despite living in Sydney I wouldn't have known it was on, I only knew mid week that it was this weekend. The marketing has been average. A friend of mine was given 10 corporate tickets for each day ... but there's no way I'm going today with the rugby that's on.

I think we're Bromwich and NAS (and an actual 13) away from winning it ... but yes without them we will get touched up.

yea, absolutely, 2, maybe 3 players out of the 17 will be the difference...

When two of them are those two props then yes.
