Another long wait edition NRL>GAME 1Cronulla Sharks v Manly Sea-Eagles8:00pm AEST on Fox, Kayo and Ch9Ocean Protect Stadium1.86-1.98>Ocean Protect Stadium hosts this Friday clash as the Sharks face the high-flying Sea Eagles. The Sharks return from a bye. Their last outing was a 38-16 victory over the Bulldogs in Magic Round. The Sea Eagles are high on confidence after a 22-14 win over the Titans, marking seven victories in their last eight games. For Cronulla, co-captain Cameron McInnes returns at lock for his 100th club appearance , and Blayke Brailey returns at hooker. Rookie Niwhai Puru debuts at halfback due to Nicho Hynes' calf injury. Ronaldo Mulitalo has scored seven tries in his last seven games against Manly. The Sea Eagles welcome back winger Lehi Hopoate from suspension while Ben Trbojevic is cleared to play but Tom Trbojevic is still out. Clayton Faulalo has notched four tries and five try-assists in his last five appearances. Last season, the Sharks won both encounters. However, Manly holds an impressive 68-33 overall historical advantage. The Sharks have won six of the last seven games between the teams. While Cronulla must navigate a massive playmaker deficit with Nicho Hynes sidelined, their strong home form at Ocean Protect Stadium remains a major asset. However, Manly's relentless defensive structure, conceding under 14 points per game recently makes them incredibly tough to break downSharks 1-12 3.20Sharks 13+ 3.60Sea-Eagles 1-12 3.10Sea-Eagles 13+ 4.30Sharks -1.5 1.90 Sea-Eagles +1.5 1.90previous thread >>154881927

Reckon the NSW girlies went hard at Surfer's Paradise last night?
Manly 20 d Cronulla 12House on it.
Oh the NRL purposely made it Maroon vs Sky Blue three games in a row
>>154899403RIGGED!
Only 3 in it, everyone else is $251+
The peel odds look juicy
>>154901593Was going to say how far fetched that is… but it isn’t. For it to happen you need 3 merge wins, presuming they win r27 against peels. They have 2 games against Cronulla they’ll lift for, a game against the Tits, 2 agsinst tigers and one against Bulldogs. Fuck it, ya sold me
The Anthem on Wednesday night reminded me how much I hate country music. i had no issues when it was obtained in Tamworth or Gympie but when I was a youngster there was exactly 0 country music bars in the Valley. Now there are three. Everyone that is in to country music has gotten their whole personality wholesale from TV.
its been origin shenanigans this week so its super important to remember to do your tips! xoxo
>>154902373thanks tiff
>>154902310St Merge will probably win this weekend.
>>154902682Kek. No. KEK
why are pooarks favourites?
>>154902682I believe
because niggo isn't playing
>>154902682St Poorgie will win a game next year.
Sharks lose tonight
If Daley was smart he would have picked Jason Saab for the Blues. Saab seems to catch every kick that comes his way.
morning ausbros you did it congrats toil is overcrack open a beer and enjoy some footie
Alright cunts I’ve got my life savings on this. This needs to hit or the kids aren’t going to uni.
>>154902921widely renowned for his safety
>>154902921Doubt cunt will completely forget how fucked Blues got fucked in that first hour and pick the exact same peem. Except for pooses back in, and Haas in for Saifiti.
wow just realised we could go top of the table this weekend with a big win
Having a watch of the highlights, the mini they call it, from origin and NSW could’ve scored three more tries except for handling and it was very wet. The send off was a shoulder charge to the head, not a head clash although it did look like it live and the shoulder to head was only clear on one angle.
The imposing man mountain Sam Walker
>>154902994Only the one game this morning but it should be a good one
>>154903084That's an uber eats order down the drain
Sam Walker was good I thought, I’d pick him again if Dearden isn’t back
up da raidjeets
>>154903265I'd rather make a donation to the bookie than give it to some fucking indian to deliver fast food to me.
Womanly will win bigly tonight. Cronulla's best players are either injured or tired.
>>154903327Brilliant. V’landys should see to it that all the clubs are represented this way
If you lived in a nice part of Sydney it will be French and Brazilian backpackers delivering for you

Steak eggs and beer on the cards
I care about the footy and I'm here :D
>>154903912yes, and more

>>154903912good food, good exercise, stop wanking completely, watch all the footy, abuse the refs, believe in the poo curse, spend time with the /nrl/ family and most importantly don't forget your tips

This ref is ruining the game with all the six agains

>>15490411625 soon
>>154904086phwoar, whos that cutie in the bottom left
>>154904185One of them wasn’t a ref call when Garrick almost got caught on the last and he flung it and there was a touch
>6 again against my peemBad>6 again against my peems opposition Good
>>154904202she used to be a sideline reporter but got arrested for drug poosession and Fox Sports dropped her
aw my rubie took a tumble he is so cute :3
SIX MOARSIX MOARSIX MOAR
>>154903912We only eat tendies here m8
I wanna see less 6 agains for both teams Faurk me
this ginger ref LOVES his six mores aye
>>154904213Toad smuggling isn’t technically drug possession
>6 again>6 again>trythis shit is boring
Six again is saving players from brain injuries
feels like the refs have been told to stop pausing the game when a player tries to milk a head high in a tackle
holy shit thats gotta be double digit six again in the last 5 minutes
>can see the ligament tear though the skinfuck me how does he do it all.
>>154904223Based Xev Bellringer enjoyer
The six again shit would be a lot more tolerable if he didn't just award them for no reason most of the time
based medium meme drop out
>>154904250Sorry mate, he took 1 second too long in the ruck (the defense is on the line so it literally doesn't matter)
>6 againRepeat ad nauseam. How do we fix this?
6 again is saving footy not the refs fault the players are all overweight and can’t handle the speed
escorts and head highs allowed at Shark Park for the home team
soft
Backfencebros.......
>my peem is winning
Big boppers are totally obsolete in footy now
Great D from back fence Brown. It's okay he'll make up for it with a 5m run
Why can't Manly beat Cronulla
if Shark Park was in South Africa it would be Shork Pork
fozball more like fraudball
>>154904289ynr back door benny
>>154904288>Fat cunts will be extinct from the sport by 2030Mark Tookey will be rolling in his grave
Todd Smith sucks Shark dick
Ginger ref ruining another game
Fogarty's long kicking game papers over so many cracks in the Manly team
>>154904306Should be Wahs HoF honestly
Fozball bros…
Nah they’ll have to dial back the six again rules and eventually get rid of it. First thing is coaches need to realise if you’re giving them away you’re going to lose
>>154904294So true, so true.
Fozball is over lads
no one gives them away, the ref just picks a team to police into exhaustion
Womanly dare I say it frauds?
Cronulla are cheats, that corner has clearly been oiled up precisely for tricky kicks like that
Ella is NOT going to do her silly little dance tonight
The biggest halftime of Foz's career
Flat track bully status?
>nooo being punished for cheating is ruining the game
wasn't there some stat that the team that gave up the most six agains won like 60-65% of the time
Why not just nerf it to like 2 tackles or something and not the whole damn 6
>>154904332The only thing that has been oiled up is Wayne Bennetts strap on that he used to rape your asshole Irish cunt
>poogarty
>>154904345Yeah or a null play where the tackle count doesn’t advance if there’s an infringement
six again for what?for fucking what?
Did I just see an ai slop sign?
FOZSLOP IS DEAD
very shit attempt from hopoate
GOATNULLA GOATNULLA GOATNULLA
new wallpaper lads
>>154904345>>154904358Good ideas anons
The ranga cunt gave like 3 six agains in 2 tackles WTF
>out of the reach of Hopoatephew he would have been sweating that one
there's been more six again calls this half than in all of last weekend.
>leviMormons are shit footy players
https://youtu.be/_7xMfIp-irgThe Beatles - All You Need Is Love
>>154904358Think a tean would be willing to give that up if it meant they could reset their defense
nah, not watching the rest of this scripted content. todd smith's decided the sharks are due a win and is giving it to them on a platter
>>154904352>i’m gay and racistgo lick a power socket
No urgency from the manly boys tonight
>24 set restarts in the 1st half
State of Origin games:Keiran Foran - 0Craig Fitzgibbon - 11
Fozball is so over. Manly WILL NOT make the 8
Sharkbros was Nicho the problem this whole time?
>>154904387>not watching the rest of this scripted content
Business idea: get rid of 6 agains go back to just blowing penalties, go back to 5 tackle sets
peeran pooran
business idea: instead of a 6 again, the offending player has to immediately leave the field of play and run a full lap around the field before they can return to the field
>>154904421you're pretty dim if you think I'm pretending to be 'not mad'. I'm fucking cut as a snake. the game's gone to shit with these new rules.
Business Idea: Death to all NRL match officials.
Fack checkIt was only 11 set restarts6 Sharks5 Manly
we're sorry siebold we were to quick to condemn you
>>1549044617 against Manly, 5 against CronullaOver half of them for seemingly nothing
>>154904451>I'm fucking cut as a snake
>>154904461What's the average? Any idea?
Manly can come back, Cronulla will get tired

>>154904486https://www.rugbyleagueeyetest.com/2026/03/09/nrl-round-1-margins-set-restarts-plus-the-return-of-expected-points/was 8.5 for a game earlier this season
>>154904458
>>154904486The average isn’t a useful stat, neither is comparing teams in the same game. If there’s an infringement the ref will call it, if there isn’t he won’t. The only meaningful thing to look at is if the ref is making bad calls and if the 50/50 calls are going predominantly one way
pooarks getting brooksy back into his normal form
Nice to Brooks has reverted back to the mean
>>154904493Whom do you have in mind?
>>154904520they dont even say what the SA was for so one can only guess if it was a good call
>>154904520>if there isn’t he won’tthe first half was evidence to the contrary
GARRICK DOWN I REPEAT GARRICK DOWN
MILKING
Which brings us to the major glaring issue of the six again call being that they happen so quickly there isn’t much chance of checking if the ref made a good call, this is most important for the ref himself
Garrick is a notorious milker. Screencap this post and remember it whenever he milks going forward.
a rare intelligent irish post

>Jake still on a million plusManly are unironically too loyal to their players. That is highway robbery, credit to his manager I guess.
Manly will want to score 4 more tries here (they wont convert them)
God loves Manly
SAAB
Does Saab ever celebrate his tries? He also looks so serious.
they have manly under the thumb>if you don't pay me 1 million I'm leaving and taking turbo with me etc
He probably should’ve brought that around a bit
Can't believe they let the based Tongan Fisherman go to the Cowboys so they could keep Sam Shitstreet
>>154904666They’re probably ready to let Turbo walk. Cunts always injured.
Stop shit talking Jake. He captained NSW to a series win
WOMANLYGODS WOMANLYGODS WOMANLYGODS WOMANLYGODS WOMANLYGODS BASED BROOKSY (that pass was retarded)

Horrendous challenge.
>greatest origin ever>followed by the greatest weekend of footy everwhats stopping this?
Brown might charge hard but he's shit for post contact meters, he's no Haas
>>154904709They've played well enough for you to claim you were right
>>154904709They’ve won the last 10/11 at home so you weren’t wrong. They grease up the field you see
>>154904723He gets folded into his back every tackle too
Its crazy how much more watchable games are without constant 6 agains.
SEND HIM OFF SEND ALL 3 OFF

This game just flat out sounds kinda tarded. Not watching it but. Cancelled my subscription and decided I won't pay for it again.
>>154904831its on channel nine m8
No try
What the fuck is happening
if womanly score and convert all the womanly customers will be happy at full time conversely if pooarks can hold womanly back and maybe score again then pooarks will be very happy with the result
>>154904865Big brain
>>154904865brave call
any other commentators unapologetic fans of their former teams?does any other club produce as much SOUL?
If DAZN lose the coverage rights, you'll still be keeping Kayo for Matty Johns, Fletch & Hindy, right?
>>154904914Lmao that clapping
>>154904920I'll drop them so fast and look forward to all the emails from them begging me to come back
>>154904920nah, goneski
even if they get partial rights I will cancel
No... n-not a CORWARDLY POO
This poo has chewed up over a minute of the remaining game time. That’s a fucking disgrace.
Boxfu spotted
>>154904969it has to be kept on the whole time teehee :^)
>>154904708Wade Egan YOU are a NSW Blue
Manly have a lot of players out. A win with an asterisks for Cronulla.
>>154904973The want countless 6 moars for a better product yet they’ll chew up 1 of the 5 remaining minutes of a tight match making the crowd watch a poo
>million six agains 1st half>2 this half I still don't understand why this is such a common occurrence
Wrong pass option. Put it through the hands.
>saab
to stonestreet's credit he has absolutely buckbroken saab tonight
>>154904997its true not sure they they keep passing it to alfa romeo
Stonestreet looks like an eshay you'd see at Minto station at night who tries to take your phone
0/1 fell for the dumb fozball meme like a spastic
>>154904997Not really. Garrick has been an absolute fucking retard and giving to Saab with no room to work with.
Get fucked womanly shemales
>>154904970Chubby Asian?
Fozball era.... OVER!
time for sleep night lads talk shit all night about womanly for me
>>154905021This. Garrick played terribly. His passes were awful and put Saab into touch twice, and his running was more sideways than forwards. I was honestly shocked to see that he even ran over 50 metres.
>>154905113Unironically, do metres run sideways count in your AMR stat? What about the old Run Backwards trick?
>>154904997saab is a big softiemanu vatuvei wouldve bumfucked him right there on the field
Seething nightshit
glad I skipped the rest of this crap for spider noir
0/1 but the match was basically how I thought: a poo slinger that could have gone either way.
Seething womanly cucks itt
>Storm set to play games in Hobart starting next year
I was wrong about the sharks losing. Sorry qbou5 that. I fell asleep at the 2nd half so I don't even know if the refs are responsible.
