NRL 2019 - Round 23 - Match Thread

[Farmduck]

Chee Kam try sent to bunker because it didn't seem possible without an obstruction.  TRY

The defence was so clueless you would have assumed there was an obstruction and a defender was blocked but no, they just all misread it.

 

Momirovski goal.  Wests 46 - 0

46-0 Tigers

Bard time:

And gentlemen in England now a-bed
Shall think themselves accurs'd they were not here,
And hold their manhoods cheap whiles any speaks
That fought with us upon Saint Crispin's day.

 

73min: Aidan Guerra scores a consolation try.

[Graham]

The Knights fight back is on... after 73 minutes they get on the scoreboard.

Guerra try after he picked up a loose ball.

[Farmduck]

Mason Lino missed the conversion.   Knights 4 - 46

[Graham]

Ben Hunt is out of Dragons side in next game

[Futtocks]

Tristan Sailor's probably hoping he has a better debut match than Bradman Best.

[Graham]

Knights poor here and surely their hopes of top 8 look shot?

[Farmduck]

FT:   Wests 46    Newcastle  4

[Graham]

FULL TIME

WESTS TIGERS  46 - 4     NEWCASTLE KNIGHTS

Knights never in it after a week in which their coach and club announced the parting of the ways.

[Graham]

Tigers up to 9th after this

[Farmduck]

 

What's going on here? Both sides have matching fish.

In the last round the Sharks play Wests so one of them must finish on 24 competition points with a much better +/- than the Dogs.

Not if west’s lose to dragons and sharks...

[Farmduck]

Latrell is replaced by Bill Smith. Srsly, we have Jazz Tevaga, Brayden, Kayden, Zayden and Jayden Brayley and this guy's parents come up with Bill Smith.  FFS!! put some effort in!

But the Fish are already on 24 and Broncos on 23. Dogs can only reach 24. Knights can reach 24 and Panthers and Wests can reach 26 and all have +/- about 100 points better than Dogs. The Fox Sports breakdown overlooked the fact that those results need to include some 50pt wins and losses.

7min: Joseph Manu try.

[Farmduck]

Cooper Cronk doing the kicking?!?@?#

Nails it from the sideline. Chooks  6 - 0

Cronk converts.  12 - 0

[Futtocks]

Billy Smith scores a try on his Roosters debut. Converted for a 0:18 scoreline.

26min: try to Victor the Inflictor. Taukeiaho comes off the bench and takes over the kicking. Nails his first shot.

Chooks 24 - 0

James Graham has come off with "purple hand."

Broncos, Wests and Panthers to lose the next two, Knights to win one against Panthers in last round and 2 x Dogs wins would see them in regardless of points diff no?

42min: Tupou try off a crossfield kick. Taukeiaho from the sideline .......  misses.  28 - 0
