Something Wrong with NRL

There is something wrong with the NRL product atm. The overage points scored this weekend was 58 points per game. This is out of control and boring as hell. I find myself struggling to watch a game atm unless Parra are involved and that's not going much better. I just wish these gronks in charge would just leave the game alone

  • People won't it faster unfortunately one side will cop it

  • Most other teams have adapted but we havent at all. Unfortunately it's not going anywhere with that clown PVL in charge 

  • The rules last year was better, this year it feels like 2020 all over again

  • After every try we get an advertising break on TV. VLandys has made no secret of the fact that he is here to make money for the NRL on TV rights.

    More ads, more income, better commercial product.

    It was very, very simple to predict that VLandys would drive the game this way. We should have read the tea leaves and adapted.

    Higher scorelines are the new norm. Super cardio fit players with great defence and electic fast attack are what wins now. Fitness and discipline. Two things we don't have.


  • Six again calls for attacking teams in their own half should be an automatic penalty moving forward. 
    Teams have made an absolute mockery out of the rule. There is no benefit of resetting a tackle count after your first or second tackle on your own 20 metre line when in possession of the ball.

  • I would rather watch a replay on you tube from last cenury than the inconsistent and over scrutinised except for forward passes game of today !

     

  • Only good to come from it is when you're throwing money on an anytime tryscorer. 

  • I am not enjoying the product this year, regardless of our shit form. The game seems fast and souless to me... but they tell me it's bigger and better so I guess I must be missing something

  • Could not agree more
