NRL NRL 2024 - Finals Week 1

Dumb by Sharks player to try and gather that ball instead of just wrapping up the tackle once Storm player had the ball

Jack Williams is the dumbest bloke in the NRL. Gave up so many balls and was the one who gave the Warriors the win 2 weeks ago.

Game over, the Sharks aren't coming back from 14 points down with about 15 minutes left.

The Sydney commentators sounding deflated, you can tell they hate the Storm dominating again.

Yeah the Melbourne commentators are gutted…Never thought I’d see the day someone thinks Gould is upset at the Sharks losing…

Anyway here comes Butler with his Shark hate. Melbourne should have challenged the one on half time, he’d have overturned…

Well, good try in first half Sharks but they've been demolished this 2nd half

lol, Storm have been the better side all year, Sharks were massive underdogs but calls like that are just complete bullshit.

We’ve had a bloke reported for pushing a kicker 2 weeks ago and now a penalty for tapping a player on the head…

It's a blow out now, the Storm have to be favourites for another premiership.

Sharks now 0-4 in the Hynes/Fitzgibbon era. They simply must win next week.

I’m assuming you didn’t watch Penrith last night?

Very clearly going to be a Penrith/Melbourne grand final - not sure either deserve to be favs though. Going to be a cracker.

I'm a Manly Sea Eagles supporter, they could be a smokey if they can turn back the clock to 1987 with that premiership team.

Yeah, just play the GF next week, we all know it's going to be those two

Roosters would have been in the mix but for the Walker and Smith injuries

Everyone else are pretenders

 

[Andronicus]

Must be nice for Bellamy knowing he has a different set of rules to play with.

I was there

the comp is ours

Not a single penalty or ruck infringement in the second half, it’s amazing discipline, much like the Warriors 2 weeks ago…

 

[Paul Kersey]

**** it was cold there today.

 

[eddiesmith]

Bad luck to the Knights, you can’t beat the NRL.

What I find interesting and with 2 minutes to go it likely made zero difference, but in recent weeks if the player falls into a tackle, it’s not a sin bin.

Not to mention 3rd man in has been binned. In that case Dearden and Cotter had to get 10.

**** it was cold there today.

Was it ever.

Storm were their usual self. Bellamy turning footy players into guns. Sharks tried hard, but no match for the favourites.

Watched parts of the Cowboys v Knights game which has easily been the best so far.

 

[Jatz]

****ing Gagai. Should’ve gone up 6. Wasn’t the best pass but he literally had one bloody job.

Proud of the boys, arguably could’ve won that.

Same thing happened in Sharks v Warriors, they conveniently ignored that rule whilst binning the Sharks player for the non suspendable bump…

Thought Ponga should have gone inside instead anyway but possibly never saw those 2 who would have scored under the post.

That pass was impossible to catch at full speed was way too hard

Yeah, disagree. Wasn’t perfect but a long way from impossible.

 

[Jatz]

That’s what sadly makes it worse. Had 3 players, he just happened to pick the old boy that struggled to reach down a bit.

Cowboys are playing some good footy. Reckon they’ll take care of the Sharks, playing with sone real momentum. Smashed the dogs down in Syd last week, don’t think Cronulla will hold many fears.
