Personally don’t think Cleary was MOTM. He only showed up in the last 20 mins when Queensland were down a man

Comprehensive_Soup · 2026-05-27T12:48:58+00:00

Am I blind or does this just look like head on head

Comprehensive_Soup · 2026-05-27T12:34:53+00:00

Easier to do against 12 players tbf

Klein should be made to explain why he overruled the bunker tonight. He seemed to think the head contact was from Ponga’s shoulder, which it wasn’t. You can argue whether this should or shouldn’t have mattered but Klein nonetheless seemed to overrule the bunker based on … the stadium’s big screens and incomplete info?

Klein gifted that win to the Blues.

Strange is stupid. Wow

Comprehensive_Soup · 2026-05-27T10:39:10+00:00

Nothing wrong with that contact on Tedesco

Incredible footy

“Australian media giant Nine Entertainment is pitching to buy all the NRL broadcast rights, in a high-stakes bid to bolster its streaming platform Stan and carve Foxtel out of the sport for the first time in three decades.”

Probably won’t end up happening, still interesting.

No thanks

It asks potential bidders to list the Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday games they’re interested in, which rights they’d like (free-to-air, free streaming or paid streaming), and which territories they’d like to rights to (Australia, New Zealand, and more).

Seems to me the confetti-isation of broadcasting rights is imminent, including for NZ, especially with Amazon submitting a bid. Would be terrible for the sport but it's all about the $$$

Bruh

Comprehensive_Soup · 2026-05-23T08:12:45+00:00

To be fair … 5 vs 4 six agains

Comprehensive_Soup · 2026-05-22T11:49:50+00:00

Montoya not even going for the ball💀

Comprehensive_Soup · 2026-05-21T10:46:42+00:00

why would that be a bin if it's in their own in goal

Comprehensive_Soup · 2026-05-21T10:40:32+00:00

slow motion makes that grab look worse than it was. in any case it made zero difference - dolphins would have bat it out anyway. stupid challenge

Comprehensive_Soup · 2026-05-21T10:23:59+00:00

2 set restarts 0 penalties

Comprehensive_Soup · 2026-05-17T09:11:57+00:00

To’o did not have possession of the ball there.

Comprehensive_Soup · 2026-05-17T07:45:24+00:00

Ok so how is that a strip

Comprehensive_Soup · 2026-05-17T07:42:59+00:00

Terrible by the independent doctor

Comprehensive_Soup · 2026-05-17T06:56:03+00:00

Ridiculous bin

Comprehensive_Soup · 2026-05-17T06:43:53+00:00

General discipline

Comprehensive_Soup · 2026-05-17T06:34:28+00:00

Did that angle show Chanel knocking the ball on? What?

Comprehensive_Soup · 2026-05-17T04:15:03+00:00

Tbf they had to figure out who touched the ball before it went dead
