  • Niukore is an idiot for doing that. I didn't notice papalii making much of an impact from the bench. Put him back into the backrow where he was a tackle breaking machine. Lane has done jack shit on the edge. He is a middle forward now

    • Papa ran for the most meters by a mile 

  • I think Paulo is fine due to the rebound of the player onto him.

    Marata is gone. Such a dopey play.

    • Yea paulo was unlucky. Lane chopped Kurt Man and Mans head went straight into paulos shoulder 

    • Yes he was dirty at himself Niukore. Massive loss.

  • Juniors going to find himself suspended for a shoulder charge.

    • Agree Snake, no attempt to wrap an arm at all.

    • You read it right Snakie, unfortunately.

      • im suprised people are saying he'll be fine, it was a clear shoulder charge imo, will be gone for next week.

        • Only possible mitigating factor is he didn't make first contact. I believe Isaah Yeo wasn't charged for a similar hit against Souths.
