Police charge Dugan for breaching Covid laws TWICE in an hour... but exiled star claims he’s innocent

Not surprised at all

Same. Dugan has always struck me as a person who has zero respect for authority. Not just in the COVID sense I mean. He's just always seemed to have the attitude that some rules that apply to other players ( and in this instance, the general public ) don’t apply to him. And when he gets caught, he's always "misunderstood".
More trouble than he's ever been worth. Injury prone. Wonders why nobody will offer him a contract.

Have a bad feeling about this one. The 1 ref who goes out of his way to screw us over and we drew him.

LoL

The first one I can remember in 26 years. Oddly enough the game was officiated how I expected. Any Warriors try which was doubtful went up a no try. Hiku's was 50/50 but as a no try called it was never going to be one. Did we get a reset despite constant holding down in the PTB? Nope. A replay of the late hit on Egan? Nope. Even the commentators were openly cheering on the Broncos.

The Warriors never get a fair go, well once maybe, and even then you could argue simultaneous grounding LoL. Some things just never change. I guess we should just be grateful they let us in.

Dont get me wrong, I wanted the Warriors to win.
I only watched the last 10 minutes, so couldn't really comment about the reffing. For mine it was pretty clear that it was a broncs hand though.

I'm not unhappy, just frustrated. Walsh kicks properly we probably win. There's some really good young talent on the side and they really do look like a side who can play finals. Given how many games they lost by 6 points or less, it could've even been this year.

As much as I loved going back to back, I’ve not been prouder to be a roosters fan than I have been this season.

Utterly insane injury list this year and we are still 4th.

I was confounded by the kicking for goal. Walsh kept making the same mistake, in the same way.

Very young still so he can learn from it.

Good game from a neutral's perspective.

I wondered if they might give a right-footer a go with that last conversion. Hiku has kicked a few, hasn't he? The two Sunday games were great entertainment, though, some sublime scores.

CHT can kick too. Walsh was running at 83% so he has some form.

On reflection, it's hard not to be excited, although as usual, I need to keep that in check as it's usually met with disappointment.

The Chad has 34 from 41 this year. Might not have been a terrible option either.

 

[Aucklander]

Don't know why they played Townsend given Brown had said he didn't want loan players but rather develop the young ones. Should've stuck with the side which will be a part of 2022 rather than the Cowboys.

Annesley confirming Aitken's try this afternoon. A lot of people were bagging Perenara, but he got this one right.
