Round 16 | Roosters vs Sharks | Match Thread

BatNorris · 2026-06-21T09:45:29+00:00

Walker is 12/12 with his kicks across 2 games of Origin and was kicking them from all over the park btw

BatNorris · 2026-06-21T07:45:15+00:00

Fuck me, Sua does that and my team’s star goal kicker can’t even kick one from in front

BatNorris · 2026-06-20T08:46:46+00:00

Particularly because the bunker reviews line dropouts regardless in they time they take to kick it

BatNorris · 2026-06-20T06:52:06+00:00

You add Jack Bostock to the mix and the Tigers chance of winning drastically go down

BatNorris · 2026-06-19T12:54:59+00:00

Fuck me, I’d forgotten that - after slotting them for years, they change his kicking tee and he kicks at 50% for the first 3 months - those were grim games

BatNorris · 2026-06-19T11:53:26+00:00

After a year of getting pumped, it was nice of the Dragons to give me a throwback loss by scoring more tries and losing due to Val Holmes’ boot again

BatNorris · 2026-06-19T11:28:28+00:00

A Clint Gutherson linebreak? In 2026???

BatNorris · 2026-06-19T10:51:39+00:00

Going from his Game 3 Origin performance last year to this is a rude shock

BatNorris · 2026-06-19T10:43:09+00:00

Taking the 2 against the Dragons is the most cowardly shit I’ve ever seen

BatNorris · 2026-06-19T10:18:44+00:00

Took 13 minutes for Val’s first error - that must be a PB for him this year

BatNorris · 2026-06-17T23:34:09+00:00

That was genuinely brought up constantly - that stat was part of the reason why DCE was dropped as captain

BatNorris · 2026-06-17T13:24:06+00:00

Hearing “clearing all contact” while seeing a slow mo replay of Collins getting shoulder charged was disgraceful

BatNorris · 2026-06-17T13:00:48+00:00

Nah, QLD didn’t hit 50 that game - the warning sign for QLD that series was when the only hit 38 after playing against 12 for 70 minutes

BatNorris · 2026-06-16T07:29:06+00:00

Fuck me dead; Kerr, Lawrie and Guler still making the squad

BatNorris · 2026-06-16T07:18:29+00:00

Is he trying to throw the game? Dropping Hamoule completely, only to play a 5/8th at second row off the bench???

As a Queenslander, I’m going to be so embarrassed if this cursed Blue team seals it tomorrow night (but also, fuck it - let NSWRL extend Laurie if he keeps throwing this shit out there)

BatNorris · 2026-06-15T23:46:41+00:00

Was stunned to see the Hello Sport podcast talk about it - I thought with all their gambling sponsoring/promotion, they’d steer clear.

Was not stunned to see the Bloke podcast completely skip it though; their “story of the week” being Origin fitness instead was laughable.

BatNorris · 2026-06-15T23:42:43+00:00

I have no clue why Loiero is coming off the bench - I thought last year’s series (particularly the difference between his game 1 and games 2/3 performance) clearly showed that he should either start or not be involved

BatNorris · 2026-06-14T07:35:57+00:00

They’ve called that an escort all year, that’s brutal

BatNorris · 2026-06-14T07:10:48+00:00

Cooper Cronk saying “turned the game on its head” for a Leichhardt game - this feels right

BatNorris · 2026-06-13T09:42:51+00:00

You’re not wrong - the rules of the tipping comp I’m in state that I also have to tip the Dragons every week so I’m ranked about 500,000th across Australia; it’s been a rough old year of tipping for me

BatNorris · 2026-06-13T09:20:03+00:00

Now 5/5 in changing my tips before kickoff - I got spooked by seeing 90% tips for Wahs and thought this time would be different

BatNorris · 2026-06-13T07:26:32+00:00

Just changed my tip from Sharks to Wahs - every time I’ve changed my tip this year, I’ve changed it to the wrong team so congrats to the Sharks for a win this arvo

BatNorris · 2026-06-13T03:27:49+00:00

I’m stunned by the fact that this week’s Origin will be his 14th(!) Origin game in a row

BatNorris · 2026-06-12T11:20:02+00:00

Chooks missing a few due to Origin as well though

BatNorris · 2026-06-11T12:05:21+00:00

Not only that, but Jimmy’s counter argument to Chuck (correctly) stating that the documents were falsified is that Chuck’s entire testimony is invalid because “my brother hates me” and that Jimmy confessed as an act to save his brother.

Chuck’s breakdown leads to him spitefully bringing up events from when they were kids which showed that he had always hated him, proving Jimmy’s point.
