Rugby League (40)2020

My God, we're bad.

I actually don't think Powell will be here next year. We look completely gone. Nothing is working anymore. After the last 2 or 3 years, I wouldn't really mind, but for the fact that I have absolutely zero faith in us brining in a decent replacement.

Penrith shit the bed, but the fury of Craig Bellamy wins hilarious.

[mikeyg27]

Phil Gould works for / used to work for Penrith, right? He was on spectacular one-eyed form today.

I think the scoreline and the finish mean that game is going to be better remembered than it should be. I thought it was over once the intercept happened. Fair play to Penrith for giving it the illusion of a competitive game, but they fell right into Melbourne's trap.

[Mr Eggs]

Fuck me.

Wire can't half fuck things up in new and exciting ways.

[Gulftastic]

Just like the last one, eh Wire?

[Old Thrashbarg]

I enjoyed that game.

Can't see a win against Wigan next week, but at least the season hasn't been a total disaster.

[Gulftastic]

We had zero luck in that one, and made too many errors.

Catalan will be two men down next week I think, unless the review panel are as blind as the fucking ref and the video ref.

An insult.

Edit: Fuck them ^^ see above

[Deanjam]

Union got 45% of funding across all sports. Disgraceful. And horse racing should get fuck all except banned.

From Dido Harding's wikipedia site

She holds a board position at the Jockey Club, which is responsible for several major horse-racing events including the Cheltenham Festival.

I'm incensed about this.  I know how hard Widnes have worked with f*ck all to keep them going, and the community going.  F**k em, f**k em.

^sorry drunk post.

Anyway, game on.

[dr beat]

Defence from the Pies so far.

[Gulftastic]

From both sides. Non stop that.

[dr beat]

Aye speaking as a neutral this is a cracker so far.

[dr beat]

4-4. Time for a Ste O'Neill

[Gulftastic]

Shit. The. Bed.

[Blue Jam]

kinell indeed.

[mikeyg27]

Fucking mental. Fitting end to this nonsense season.

Fun coda to last night: according to Stuart Cummings Hull FC's own posts are 12m high, but the RFL decided to bring in their own 18m ones for the GF instead of using the ones on-site, meaning that instead of a video ref trying to work out if the ball had gone inside the posts or not we got that finish instead.
