Aussie Sports Thread - NRL, AFL or A League

Of course they have a chance but I’m hoping for a 3-0 whitewash . Dropping DCE was a big call & the funniest part is the Roosters are apparently thinking of dropping their interest in him for next season.

**** that was close - thought NSW would be battered after half time

If we had a reliable goal kicker we win that. Great comeback in the 2nd half. The penalty count was 0-7 at one stage in the 1st half. No wonder we trailed.

3/10 in the series is crazy

I saw the half time score and thought QLD should see this through. Good comeback from the blues but not enough. Has anyone seen the eye gouge incident? Haven’t seen it but lots of people talking online that he’s only going to get a fine.

No who’s supposed to have done that & who to?

That’s terrible. Cleary would do a better job than that.

Just watched it for the first time. He’s on report. Doesn’t look good.

So we need a new 5/8 for game 3. Moses out for 6 weeks & possibly Luai so maybe Matt Burton gets the call.

It didn't look good in slow motion - that's a grub thing to do

Great win for the lions to bounce back from some recent loses. Winning away to Geelong is never easy.

Yeah they were on it from the off. First win down there in 22 seasons.

Optus sport have sold the Premier League & FA Cup rights to Stan Sports as of August 1st. So from now on Stan will have PL FA & CL all in one place. Minimum cost is $12 for the basic Stan plus the $15 Sports up to $22+$15 for 4K & multi devices version.

Add in that Nine is looking to get the A League too. Great if you can get it all in one place again.

Back to the good old days where you could watch the A League all day then straight in to the Premier league through till the late hours. Miss those days.

[SB]

And a darn sight cheaper that the Foxsports days too. Their basic plus sport package cost around $80 pm from memory.

Tom Trbojevic scored a try & gave the No 20 sign & when asked by Freddie what it was about he said it’s for Diego Jota, Freddie had no idea what he was talking about. Well done though Turbo.
