How did Bailey Hodgson get on today?

[Blotto]

In the Maori vs Indigenous Match Rapana's expletive when Cobbo picks up on his line and runs the 100 to score, you can see him in the background when they show it front on!

[Futtocks]

Morning all.

36 degrees as the Penrith/Parra game kicks off. Plenty of new names, especially for the champions

[Irish Saint]

Watching the Dragons\ Saints. Vossy champions British Rugby League more than most Brits.

[Blotto]

Steady win by St H  but a good work out for them as Penrith will be a different proposition! 

I wonder if Brent Read's Article in the Daily Telegraph with the sentence Super League is an infinitely inferior competition to the NRL. Was pointed out by the Coaching staff!

Dolphins look better than I had hoped. Kick catching is an area they neglected.

When the kickoff was fumbled I admit my heart sank and I thought what have I backed. It wasn't helped by taking the ball out on the next kick.

 

However, tackling looks good, the try was too drawer. Plenty to be hopeful about.

 

6-4 cowboys after 13

[Midlands hobo]

Getting a bit scrappy by both teams.

[Midlands hobo]

Great intercept try by the cowboys, 95m. Was a certain score if he hadn't pinched it.

[Midlands hobo]

12-4 at drinks. Penalty dolphins a few metres out 

[Midlands hobo]

Dolphins no 9 Harrison Graham limps off having clutched a heavily taped knee.

[Midlands hobo]

A good passage by cowboys. Held up over the line but a well executed set. They have coughed up a few knock ons in the collision.

A try call cowboys, given on field but he clearly missed it on Replay. 

[Midlands hobo]

Possession cowboys 64% for the first 30

[Midlands hobo]

Robert Derby in for his second, cowboys stretch the lead. Duffy looking a great kicker takes it to 18-4.

[Midlands hobo]

Dolphins get a few penalties and a reset. Short crash ball held up over the line. 2:25 left in the half

[Midlands hobo]

Pass back inside and hubner is under the posts. 18-10

[Midlands hobo]

Another big mistake on the kick off by the dolphins this is becoming a joke. Price smashes the ball clean out and the cowboys scoop up and barrel over. Held up by about 5 players.

 

20 seconds left. 

[Midlands hobo]

Wow Milford lays on to run out the last few seconds to give the penalty and gets binned 

[Midlands hobo]

Dolphins lose another to injury dislocated shoulder 

 

They are just trying to run down the sinbin without taking too much damage

Injury update

[Midlands hobo]

Dolphins see out the sinbin without conceding. 

[Futtocks]

If he's got that down, what a try! And what a first touch!

Edited February 12, 2023 by Futtocks

[Midlands hobo]

Milford bombs on the 5th baira goes over the top of Derby and puts down a metre inside. (Worth the replay) 18-16 cowboys.
