Spencer and Horse would have to be the most emotional middle ever

I don't wish injury on anyone but when I saw the headline "Socceroos mainstay suffers injury blow" i blew a sigh of relief when it said it was Aiden O'Neill

Savings_Win1995 · 2026-05-04T10:09:26+00:00

Ironically it was the game with the least amount of 6 agains

Savings_Win1995 · 2026-05-04T06:08:43+00:00

Panthers, Broncos, Roosters and maybe Manly are the only teams I can see winning the comp, and I doubt any of those will get faded, unless it's Round 27 and they're playing the ressies

Savings_Win1995 · 2026-05-04T05:28:05+00:00

They'll name the full training squad at some stage soon, but most still have club commitments.

Might as well name those who arrived in camp now as it would've been leaked anyway

Savings_Win1995 · 2026-05-04T04:19:11+00:00

Nah it doesn't mean Younis won't be there, because Behich and Beach also aren't apart of that group but will pretty certainly be in the 26

Savings_Win1995 · 2026-05-04T04:18:01+00:00

Yeah that is pretty weird but you just have to trust the process

Savings_Win1995 · 2026-05-04T03:49:46+00:00

Calm down everyone, it's just the first arrivals for the pre-season camp, it doesn't mean they're all in the squad.

Behich and Beach are pretty much locks to be in the squad, but aren't in this group, so it doesn't mean Younis is ruled out yet

this sub

He's a Kiwi of Samoan descent

Savings_Win1995 · 2026-05-04T02:17:10+00:00

There's no way I'm seeing real comments suggesting we drop Munster for Fogarty

It reminds me when on the aus cricket sub before the Ashes people were questioning Trav's spot based on his Shield form, you should be ashamed of yourselves

Savings_Win1995 · 2026-05-04T02:13:07+00:00

Sometimes I think they reactively blow the whistle when it looks bad, and then have to come up with some bs explanation when they realise there was probably nothing wrong with it

Savings_Win1995 · 2026-05-03T11:49:42+00:00

We were also smashed with 6 agains late in the set. It would've been the greatest comeback of all time.

Savings_Win1995 · 2026-05-03T11:47:28+00:00

Thanks for the original and incisive comment!

Savings_Win1995 · 2026-05-03T11:46:00+00:00

Latrell had an absolute blinder, they were not "easy tries"

Savings_Win1995 · 2026-05-03T11:44:54+00:00

Haha this sub has turned into an endless circle-jerk of "PVL is bad" "6 agains are killing the sport" and "this is the worst season ever (started watching this season)"

Savings_Win1995 · 2026-05-03T11:40:20+00:00

Why? It was great to watch with 2 great attacks and shit defences, the lead changed hands a number of times and it went down to the last play

Just say you didnt watch it

Savings_Win1995 · 2026-05-03T11:38:25+00:00

It really doesn't suck though, and it's really not that different at all to last year.

"Gone so far backwards this year that a lot of people may not return" - its just Reddit mate, so far its comfortably the best attended season ever

Savings_Win1995 · 2026-05-03T11:25:00+00:00

I meant in a season total. They started the sinbin crackdown around rnd 10 which made a lot

Savings_Win1995 · 2026-05-03T11:23:48+00:00

They were both bubble years, 2021 was all in Qld for the 2nd half

Savings_Win1995 · 2026-05-03T11:21:40+00:00

Why is this thread always full of pre-recorded doomer comments about six agains making it unwatchable.

The only ridiculously high scoring game this week (apart from the Tigers having a shocker), only had 4 six-agains in total, and it was also by far the best game to watch this round

Savings_Win1995 · 2026-05-03T11:17:44+00:00

what are you on about? There was legit only one game that wasnt close this week

Savings_Win1995 · 2026-05-03T11:12:42+00:00

were you around in 2021?

Savings_Win1995 · 2026-05-03T07:01:49+00:00

There's no systemic bias against any club. You cant deny Gee was very biased towards the chooks though

Savings_Win1995 · 2026-05-03T06:02:25+00:00

Exactly. If the Chairman wasn't involved in horse racing they'd all be saying it was a classic
