Re: Smith/Slater/Cronk Story

Nice of Cronk to choke smith while he was on the ground. (Back page of daily Telegraph by the way)Cameron smith has carried this team for 16 years. I lost so much respect for Cronk tonight. I'll never mention his name again on this site.

Re: 2018 Grand Final. Storm v Roosters

Is that the worst game of munsters career?

Re: 2018 Grand Final. Storm v Roosters

I never thought I'd say this. But Hoffman should have played instead of Stimson, and Hughes should have replaced Chambers.

Re: 2018 Grand Final. Storm v Roosters

The only way Cronk will play is off the bench. And they will only use him last 10 mins of game.

Re: 2018 Grand Final. Storm v Roosters

I'll bet that there was no 'private session' and the roosters leaked that to the Telegraph. Matterson will probably be 5/8, Keary to 7.

Re: 2018 Grand Final. Storm v Roosters

Yep no chance Cronk is playing. I don't understand the smoke and mirrors. Keary is way more important to them than Cronk. Anyone who saw the channel 7 chopper footage would know he isnt playing. He would have at least been running some plays with no contact. He did nothing, he couldn't even pick up ...

Re: Round 3 - Storm vs Cowboys

Three weeks and an injury for probably our best 17 to be named. Will look forward to it even though it will only be for one game. Replace Hoffman with Felise and this is our best line-up. Who was the poster saying no Slater! That is ridiculous talk. Munster is a great player, but he has so much to ...

Re: Cooper Cronk confirms he will play on with a Sydney club in season 2018

Does anyone for one second believe this was hatched up in the last 2 weeks? To suddenly go from "I don't know if I'm going to play on". To signing a 2 year deal. Absolute Bulls#%t. He has known this for months and so have the Roosters. Why couldn't he just be honest for Mitchell Pearce and...

Re: Jesse Bromwich - Cocaine Allegation

This is so dissapointing and infuriating from Jesse. Probably get a 12 month ban for first offence. Really stuffed our great year. We are pretty woeful in the middle stint when he is off the field. With Welch also gone, looks like Mclean and NAS/Glasby to start with Tui and Tohu to come on the bench...

Re: Cronk is not retiring for now

Personally i think he made this decision long ago. The articles about him being in Sydney after career. Just softening everyone up for the big one. I wish he said "yes i am going to play for a Sydney club". Because he definately will. Better to have have a halfback who is actually here all...

Re: PRELIMINARY FINAL - Storm vs Raiders

I just wish we would use our explosive wingers for more than just hitups. We only threw the ball to the wings twice in the entire game. Been our gameplan all year it seems. Losing Slater didn't help, but Munster has thrown some great balls out to the wing, but he does it once every five games. On th...

Re: Round 26 - Storm vs Sharks - MINOR PREMIERSHIP BATTLE

Thanks, that's a shame. Broadcast schedule on NRL.com says 9 are broadcasting the game, but I have looked for both Melbourne and Sydney regions and there's no coverage as fas as I can see. FORTUNATELY, if one has a Kodi box!! Yee-haw. Live picture can be a bit 'fizzy' but if you can't get to the ga...

Re: Round 26 - Storm vs Sharks - MINOR PREMIERSHIP BATTLE

I hope like hell that this weekend, Smith throws the ball at every player who rolls away from the ruck. Archer has already defended the decision and said that they have to blow a penalty in those situations. If so, game on for everyone. I'm sure that will be a f**king fantastic look for the game in...
