    Hopefully he brings the cockiness and exuberance under control as he matures. Defs one of those guys that you love on your team but hate him when he's not. I still cringe a bit though at times...

    He's tougher than he looks though, which likely makes it more infuriating

    His legs accelerate to long strides faster than anyone I've ever seen, and his passing at pace is pretty unreal too.

    I don't think anyone else could have pulled off that blindside play on Friday night that led to Reynolds' try. Markers had no hope, and he got the panicked attention the centre and winger so quickly and so well that he managed to put Capewell of all people down the sideline untouched. It blew the game wide open too, was a stalemate at that point, probably in the Eels favour. Broncos were just barely getting past the 30m line, only Reynolds boot was preventing them getting squashed.

    Everything to play for and NQ play like that. Ill never understand how they lose one game (V Titans) and suddenly look like they have no idea how to play.

    Aside from the game against Easts, the Dolphins losing 4 close games in the last 5 weeks is really aids. Its a shame...legit couldve been in the 8 with that soft draw.

    do recall you mocking all of us who put them at finishing around 14th place
     
  7. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    Mostly those who had them bottom 2. And i stand by what I said. None of you were predicting 4 or 5 near-misses from an injury-ridden team when making those predictions.

    And you weren't predicting.... anything
     
  9. Toolman TR Man

    most teams have 4 or 5 near misses and injuries
     
  10. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    Not in the space of 6 weeks was my point. Nor missed their starting 7 and 9 for half the season.
     
  11. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    Err, what? I said they would not finish bottom 4 and they would surprise most people slating them before a ball was kicked.

    Very easy to feel like Nostradamus picking apart other ladders when you post none of your own

    The Rugby league news cycle being so fixated on Luke Brooks farewell BBQ is the most NRL thing ever.

    I'd be stoked with a $1k BBQ.

    Souths lose Latrell for their season defining game because he’s just decided to elbow a bloke in the back of the head in the dieing minutes of a game that was all but over and now they’re set to sack assistant coaches John Morris and Sam Burgess after both confronted Jason Demetriou about giving special treatment to Cody Walker & Latrell Mitchell. A couple of hours after Jason Demetriou put out a public apology for like a post on instagram that said Jacob Host & Liam Knight were clowns pretending to be first graders.

    Lol@Souffs

    In a recent video session, Mitchell snapped at Murray for not passing him the ball when he wanted it.

    “When I call for it, give it to me,” Mitchell said, according to those in the room.

    To which Murray replied: “Most of the time, you’re not there.”

    :lol:

    I have my doubts, but would be hilarious if true.

    Latrell sculling beers mid week isn't the best look for him after the shit he produced in Newcastle.
     
  17. Toolman TR Man

    He did it cause Frizell owned and mocked him in their running contest and he couldn't cop it. Any player would be stupid not to target and ridicule Latrell every chance they get to get a reaction, especially nowadays when you get binned over anything. He's weak as shit and can't handle it.
     
  18. Jake A Pimpkins

    as if the millionaire who supposedly loves to bbq doesn't already have one though, probably one better than they provided too
     
  19. Sultan Pepper HG Emm

    Cody Walker in the same book. Biggest sook over ever seen
     
  20. jazman84 JM Eightyfour

    Possibly relevant, but whenever we played against good indigenous players, my footy coach would always instruct us to pester, niggle, talk about and practically do running commentary of on them during the games. Said they will always crack and either go missing or do stupid shit.

    As far as I can recall, he was correct.
