All NRL Games [Round 8, 2024]

[Under the Sticks]

Titans the same too, you'd think if you were playing on the actual day they'd show a bit of effort

Titans impacted by the same gambling advertising rules in NZ so usual sponsors replaced.

Look back to Origin III period last year for the source of their problems.

Souffs is in Queensland too?

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

Something to do with submarines which explains the black diagonal stripes but personally I can’t see it

I think they’re going for a dazzle camouflage scheme. Popular in WWI and still in use interwar and on occasion in WWII.

Cooper Cronk is painfull.

Dan Ginnane is just as bad.

Put them together and my mute button get a workout.

No worse than Blocker and Brandy.

Where do they get these commentators from?

Do they do user surveys?

Had to laugh at Blockhead trying to pronounce Watene-Zelezniak in the earlier game...

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

South’s look to be the next to be done by 50

I wonder what D. Furner is thinking now as rabbits new defensive coach, wtf.

 

[Oligarch]

And now south’s 50+, sweet 🤣

He might be the Souths’ FG coach by Monday.

 

[cc eagle]

Can't blame Trell for that one

 

[HK_Eagle]

A fair bit of feeling sorry for Souffs from commentators... mentioning periods of hanging in there and putting up some fight... Sure, they are missing Trell, but this team on paper should not be putting up performances like that. Pathetic.

I presumed @Under the Sticks knew this, hence the "I can't see it" comment

 

[Under the Sticks]

I can’t see it because I’m colour blind 🤓

 

[Under the Sticks]

I hate Munster as much as the next NRL fan but that move from Milne at the end was dogsh*t and he should be gone for 4 weeks.

 

[HK_Eagle]

Conveniently lost all sound on the JD Souffs press conference lol

 

[HK_Eagle]

Keppie can't even get a run in that rabble.

 

[Eagle 1]

Time for the mercy rule for Souffs , they are a club in deep deep do do .

Plodder Burgess and blunt Arrow have surely had there day. Time for some hard decisions, starting with coach Demitrepoo.

Yeah I get that part, I meant the actual design of the jersey. No military etc on them.

My presumption is that he wasn’t thinking along those lines. However only UtS can answer that.

This is from the Squall’s website.

“Melbourne Storm 2024 O'Neills Mens ANZAC Round Jersey

….The jersey also pays homage to the dazzle camouflage used by the Navy through WWI and WWII. Unlike other forms of camouflage, the intention of the dazzle is not to conceal but to make it difficult to estimate a target’s range, speed, and heading.* HMAS Melbourne(I) used this camouflage in WWI, as well as being featured on the floor of one of The Shrine courtyards.“

*That is the only submarine-related connection.
