All NRL Games [Round 17, 2024]

Ben Hunt seems a very happy man with Flanno running the show.
Once JMK went off, it was always going to be tough going for the Dolphins.
And Benny Woolf gets one over on big brother.
 
Ref did his absolute best to keep the Panthers in the game that half. Ridiculous run of penalties and six agains, as well as two sin bins, until the Cowboys finally cracked. Even with a host of players missing, the Cowboys have looked really good. Some great defence on their goal line. If they show that level of commitment against us next week, we will struggle.
 
Is this thread in dark mode, or is that only Game day... Maybe we need the cone of silence

Yes, but they're also playing the Panthers who are missing To'o, Martin and Luai.

To'o alone is probably worth about 8-12 points a game to that team, in both scoring tries and getting the team rolling down field.

Edwards & Cleary
 
Thanks for nothing Dedcliffe, Panfers.
You can add the sharks to the list
All games went against us this weekend.
It’s really now in our hands
Those dropped points re warriors ,raiders, eels are now coming back to bite us.
Think we miss the
The one positive after next weeks game all remaining games are in Sydney with only raiders away match only other match out of Sydney.
 
That effort from the Cowboys shows up our "free throw at the stumps" against the Rabbits. Yes, the Panthers were missing players as well, but the Cowboys were so patched together you could see the sticky tape at their edges. They did not play as if they were expecting to lose. They played tough, took their opportunities, and they won. They did the same thing against the Roosters a few games back.

Then they followed it up with their origin players at home against the Warriors and got a score put on them.

Yep, I said in another thread that the Cowboys season has been very similar to ours: some good wins, some poor losses, no consistency at all. And, just like us, having their "best" players on the field is no guarantee that they will produce their best effort.

‘Seal Pup’ Seibold knows a thing or two about throwing away games, so no surprises he wanted to take a ‘free throw..’ against Souths.

Classic Poetic Post !!!
This is an Awesome Analogy and so poetically put by you @Ron E. Gibbs

Cows could beat them but we couldn't. Another plus for spoony's coaching record.

Then we’re a chance
