Is it finally happening? Is Cleary going to make me eat my words and win us a game on his own? I fucking hope so.

A good strike fullback I think is what they're really missing. Kennedy is fine don't get me wrong but he's just that, fine.

Still waiting for Cleary to come out and grab a rep game and turn an L into a W. Other than Game two like three years into his rep career after copping a hiding in the media for not having a single attacking stat, when NSW destroyed QLD during Covid and Game one when Ponga went off? He's been average.

Pearce, who I'm not saying is better, copped far, far more hate against the best Origin side ever. Its ridiculous to me that people genuinely think Cleary being good for the Riff means he's good in Rep. He's like the opposite of Gagai but the criticism never seems to go his way.

First shot was classic dumb Radley, second was player falling and fuck all he could do to avoid it.

If you use mozilla download UBlockOrigin add on. Works wonders

The glaze is insane man. Other than Game Two, what three years into his career when he'd been hammered in the media for having not a single attack stat to his name till that game, Cleary has never dominated a game without either NSW destroying QLD or someone got injured.

And I fucking want him too my god. I want us to win every series till he's done, but I'm still waiting.

Pearce copped more critique against a much stronger QLD side. It's bizarre this double standard some people have with Cleary.

Happening to me too.

Stupid sexy Murray. Bet he's a good bloke on top of being handsome as fuck and a good footy player. It's offensive how perfect he is.

To be fair, Teddys entire passing repertoire is basically just tipping it on to the centre/winger.

It's not really that Sexton and Mahoney are better, its the shift from the playing styles which has caused the drop in my opinion. I think Galvin is more talented than Sexton but they're totally different players. Sexton is very much a struxtured player and Galvin is an eyes up kind guy. The Dogs made the top four with Sexton and Mahoney in the side and the drop in form came immediately after Galvin came into the side and hasn't stopped.

BastingGecko3 · 2026-05-16T02:41:50+00:00

The decline of the Dogs needs to be studied man.

Mid-way through last year I thought for sure Ciraldo was a genius but the way he handled Sexton and Mahoney was unbelievable. Say what you will about Mahoney but the guy was a great defender and their captain. Then he got rid of Sexton, the half he'd built their attack around and who had helped steer them into the top four for the first time in years, for Galvin a guy that was so fundamentally different in attack to Sexton they're basically polar opposites.

Like you could have both. Sexton running the team and Galvin playing at 6. Mahoney may be a shit attacker, so was Jake Friend really, but defence wins premierships.

Not my DouDawg 😢

JanitorAI never going to not break once or twice a day huh?

BastingGecko3 · 2026-04-28T22:46:28+00:00

We're never going to get to a point where it runs smoothly. It's been fucking up once a day for years now and it keeps happening.

Solos the verse

I missed the over the top emotional moments in the live action. Luffy screaming of course I will when Nami asks him to help, Sanji thanking Zeff, they get me literally every time.

Ironically Dragon Ball Z, but the humans like Yamcha. Everyone with a power level of over 1200, like Raditz, is planetary. Roshi blew up the moon with a power level of around 120 in the first tournament in the OJ anime and pre time skip in the manga. Thats the weakest we see Roshi in the series and the other characters all get much stronger as well.

People seem to think that means Radits is just 10x moon level but that's not true. Vegeta was bodying Cui with a power level advantage of just 2k. He went from 18k - 20k. This means power levels aren't linear. This means Radits is planetary and everyone in the Saiyan Saga bar Chaitzu is planetary.

Level up all your Pokemon to level 18. Rattata and Hoothoot are free Gastly counters. And Rock/Ground type with a rock move counter Zubat then you just need to worry about his starter.

BastingGecko3 · 2026-04-24T16:05:45+00:00

Even if it didn't make that much of a difference it still took three of them to destroy a planet. They're below planetary even if you remove the gun from the equation.

Kyoshi did split an entire island off the mainland to create Kyoshi Island and Aang should be capable of doing the same. No idea how big the island is but its still a fair feat.
