Hopefully AJ gets the record Friday night

I'm not familiar of him. I looked at the list of the top 10 try scorers and know who most of them are.

What's his AFL equivalent?

Fantastic achievement by AJ.

Not sure about an equivalent. He's not a big name. I'f he didn't have the record doubt many would know him. He's a good first grader, plays week in week out, does his job like 100s of others that people don't really know.

Souths have been decent over the past 10 years played finals most years and their left side attack has been pretty good and he's benefited and a been big part that.

Of all the hoo har from NRL and Jornos told to tow the party line. I'm glad the fans ran on. Will forever live in 120 years of NRL history. The fans were pretty respectful too. The game was only deyaled for 15 or so minutes. Even the PM was there. Time in the game and it not going to the bunker worked out as well.

Sua had a game.

 

[Paul Kersey]

AFL maybe, never seen him in anything but Souths gear as far as NRL goes. He even wore Rabbitohs socks to the kings coronation

He's a Hawthorn diehard and has been forever.

St George we’re in it for the most. 7 years out of finals v yep Melbourne storms experience. Where do we go .

 

[Hojuman]

Leo with another, romped home

 

[norway blue]

I just hope I’m in the right thread .

 

[Andronicus]

Storm lucky those 2 hip drops went unpunished right when saints had the momentum.

Probably didn't make much difference in the end.

Once again, storm with a faster play the ball speed than their opposition. Every game they slow it down and always get away with it.

 

[moto748]

Penrith just so good. The Sharks are a good side, but they're not there.

 

[Aucklander]

I know it's only round 2, but what an odd ladder. Long may it continue.

My favorite part
Screw the Queensland teams

 

[moto748]

Really poor from the Dolphins, who apparently thought they only had to turn up to win, and just managed to jag a victory.

 

[Jatz]

Shame for Newcastle, looked fantastic.

And then lost Ponga and Brown to medium term injuries within the space of 10 mins.

 

[phantom13]

Bronx 0-2
Saints 0-2 (AFL)

****ing loving life right now

They were celebrating Dolphins breaking the losing streak, then I saw who they beat…

 

[CanuckSuns]

Is Newcastle that much improved or are Manly just that bad? Horrendous defense and tackling. What a pounding.

Knights defence last year was actually pretty good but they were only averaging two tries a game.

They’ve already made a lot of improvements I think, Trey Mooney has been very good, Brown has been pretty good while he’s been on the field. Remains to be seen how long it will last but it’s promising

 

[Around the Wicket]

Jason Taumalolo's 10 year contract has been a absolute flop... was a gun for probably 3 of them and has been shit the next 5

I think Newcastle will make the bottom side of the 8.
