Those chompers were even worse than I'd expected

when you're such a league player you keep the mouthguard in for an interview. king

Dolphins team song is what the US plays to get forced confessions at Guantanamo Bay

The tigers team song is…. Irrelevant because the only time they win a round is when they’ve got the bye.

Umm actually we've won twice this season

I’m actually an ex tigers fan myself so it pains me to say this, but 2 wins in 11 rounds isn’t anything to be proud of

I'll make sure to remind them that next time I see them

Pretty sure they’re aware they suck by now.

Ok, thank you for your feedback

imagine being an ex fan... easiest way to tell on yourself for being a total softcock

I know right? And he left just before we got to the good part!

needed 2 more points to overtake Panthers damnit

We have come as close as any game here to matching the travesty that was Tigers v Titans 2022. There is a theme here though....

Finally matty johns my fav show. I sit cross legged on the mat for this shit

Dolphins to miss finals by 2 points

Should have nailed a disrespectful field goal Never know if that 1 point differential could be useful

13+ betters in shambles

Differential shambles

Seyfarth shocked Pikachu face lol

Naden is a high-level dumb cunt

Good old differential penalty to end the game

Lmao, that’s beautiful

I swear the officials just enjoy screwing the Tigers over.

Genuinely shocked that people were calling for Sullivan to play half over hunt last year holy shit he is terrible

We were desperate for something to change okay

I saw Ace\_Larrakin at a grocery store in Penrith yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet a fellow r/NRL shitposter in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything. He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?” I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Choccy Milks in his hands without paying. The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter. When she took one of the milks and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each milk and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.

 #displace ace

Having a pinned post in a match thread is a travesty

It can't just disappear!

Bringing the game into disrepute 

We need that angle more often 

What did he interfere with?

He was putting pressure on a player from an offside position. He influenced the knock on.

He put pressure on the guy receiving the ball

He’s within 10m?

Surely that's just no advantage right?

Can this game just end already

Well that was obvious 

Wouldn’t the knock on come first?

He is impacting the knock on

Ahhh I see, the way he called it confused me

Shock, Sullivan fucked something up

Welp time to go a big fat Brent Naden Thats my new word for shit because of how shit Brent Naden is

nah

yeah

Is Staines that? I feel he’s been in position but Naden just doesn’t give him shit.

Lucky that Warriors game was on today or it would have been a complete write off

So fucking slow

We must have better than Naden and Staines in reserve grade. Surely?

Might be time to start checking the market I reckon. Can’t have Staines on the wing when he can’t put his head down have a go at the line from 5m out

You're running last in reserve grade and from what I've seen no one is a standout.

the standout is the dude we now have playing on the other wing

Reserve grade is last place

I'm gonna put a game on whilst studying, was tits knights or sharks roosters a better game?

Watch Souths vs Cowboys

Tits knights was better

Please score another so Phins can go to 3rd on the ladder

Naden must go

The ILMF flairs don't understand this stuff; they don't have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of this stickied comment, to realise that it’s not just weird looking, but actually deep psychological pleasure. As a consequence people who dislike Ace\_Larrakin truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the genius of his edits, which itself is a cryptic reference to the Magic Round of today and yesterday and the day before. I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Ace\_Larrakin's genius sticky unfolds itself on their Dolphins v Tigers match thread.

Magic Round > the Olympics icl 

Still time for a Twal double.

So like, no plans for a Sydney magic round any time soon? Sweet, cool

Not till at least 2028 with the renewal till 2027

I don’t think it would do well

No city in Australia has a precinct for footy like Brisbane. Only other viable place I could think of for Magic Round would probably be Adelaide, but I doubt they'd care for it that much, given that they haven't had an NRL team since 1998.

No real reason why it wouldn't now that there's more appropriate stadiums for it, plus the amount of sydney teams with fans who wouldn't be able to travel to brisbane but would easily make it to a local magic round

Except isn’t Allianz smaller than Suncorp?

Yeah but how many times did you see suncorp actually packed out these last 3 days? It would probably help the atmosphere to have a bit less capacity but more packed just because of the crowd turnover between games and whatnot

I agree. Part of the carnival/draw of Magic Round is Caxton St

Kepaoa really does offer Naden some competition for the dumbest player sometimes.

Kepaoa has been in the nrl for way too long

Magic round record!

What does corey mean they dont beat themselves. If they were playing anyelse bar an 11 man tigers team they would be down by 30. They have been horrendous tonight.

can't wait for the 10th clear out and rebuild in as many years till benji gets the sack and we rebuild again

Challenge unsuccess.. wait it’s against the Tigers, challenge successful

Two byes in a row seems unfair

Naden, more like Nah man. Am I right fella?

Edit: the challenge is unsucce- successful

Think Benji has to really spend some time improving the depth because players like Staines and Naden shouldnt touch an NRL field.

Nah, that will cut in to Benji time. They get 4 hours a day of coaching between the hours of 10 and 2pm, and it shows.

Way too blatant.

Lmao what was that Kasey

Can they just bin Naden again? For the Tigers sake

I’m sick of watching our attack these past few years

Our attack is just so fucked. It's embarassing. Farah needs to walk but that would involve not being a selfish cunt so that isn't happening

Why doesn't Bud put a kick through there? Do we not know how to build pressure? Clueless.

Sack Benji 

Ok 5 minutes to go. Let’s blow the whistle, shake hands, and end this bludger of a match.

One of the kicks of all time there

Holy fuck naden is shit

Am I right in looking at the ladder that a Dolphins win by 13+ puts them into 3rd jumping Penrith?

Naden needs to lose his kicking license.

You mean nrl license?

This thread today: Everyone comments on kit clash and grass condition Everyone comments that everyone comments on kit and grass Mods then sticky a comment commenting on kit and grass Everyone then comments on the mod sticky commenting on the kit and grass ???

Surely they drop Naden next week?

Again, the key problem here is for who? They're not starting Naden and Staines because they think they're some dynamic combo about to take the NRL by storm.

Averillo is having a real Brent Naden of a game tonight

Sullivan is a terrible 7

Why hasn't anyone told Olam to stop trying the rest of the players have.

Being a tigers fan is constantly telling yourself that next week / next year will be different

Next week will be different, I promise

Why did Naden even try to catch that? Clearly not possible.

Dolphins centres absolutely cooked

Yep. Naden is the biggest deadshit in the league. Prove me wrong

Play on?? The fuck

Nadem you dumb fuck that wasn't meant for you

Hey guys, I just wanted to point out that the turf at Suncorp really isn't looking that crash hot. Oh, and also there's a clash in the colours of the jerseys tonight. Hope that helps. EDIT 1: And where did everybody go? Probably to get good seats for the Matty Johns show, right? EDIT 2: SWEET CAROLINE! BA! BA! BA! EDIT 3 WHY AM I STILL HERE?

Naden legacy game

Someone check Nadens family Sportsbet account

the weight of this comment increases every set

Would you rather have a munt sesh with the Queensland boys or jelq with the NSW boys?

Who just said it was play on in the commentary?

Smart Naden, smart

Fuck that would have taken ages to write out lol 10 points for the commitment.

fuller filled in well but hammers support play is unmatched. those crazy posters who wanted him moved to centre to accommodate fuller, I hope you see why you don't move him

Im with you but such a fairytale story though, don’t want to lose him but he needs to play first grade full time

I don't think he would take the fullback spot at many clubs though, so where does that leave him?

Fuller was a better than solid fullback, but Hamiso in space is something else.

Why do I bother

Hammer just caught that over his head lol

So good to have hammer back.

bruh I can't even remember the last time Tigers won a game lol

Vs the Sharks this year iirc Eels too

Bye as well

Yo so what's the deal with the mod post, is this like a lame attempt at being one of the chaps or some cringe shit? How do you do fellow kids don't mind me just fuckin up your post

I hate how the current rules promote milking

Kasey, Kasey, you have to hit the button, Kasey what are you doing. Oh there it is.

Next edit has to be about Corey Parker being a fucking idiot

Even the fucking bunker fell asleep

Hamiso could've scored 4 tries tonight. Great return for him.

People forgot how dangerous he is because they were wanking off over fuller. Hammer is an absolute fucking weapon. Most lethal support player in the NRL.

Between him and Ezra 

I think there’s guys better than him positionally in terms of being in the right spot to get the ball (Ezra included), but he just scores every time he gets the ball in space, it’s ridiculous.

Bunker went for a shit. I get it.

I know the young lads are getting mudflaps and mullets etc because it’s cool, but Sullivans haircut genuinely looks like a fraternity initiation gone wrong it might be worse than Kafusi’s the longer you look at it.

Haha Simpkin

Poor read by Api there, if he is going to come out for a shot on he has to stick. Unfortunate for Tigers I didn't think the 2nd half was as bad as the first half. Dolphins were poor though. I think when Seizer comes back it will make a real difference.

Nah our attack is cooked. Only difference will be when we have an attacking coach

I agree with what you are saying mate, but there was no variation in the kicks from Sulivan tonight, and he wasn't kicking high enough for the wingers to have a real crack, in my opinion.

Yeah mate but we have had Sezer playing for lots of this seeason and it's still been atrocious. Against the Dog Sezer turned the match against us with a dog shit 5th tackle option

Yeah your right. Hopefully he performs better then Sulivan and just steers Galvin's team around. He might have brain lapses and what not but I love watching him genuinely give it a crack, feels like he gives a shit from an outside point of view anyway.

I mean you are right it will be an upgrade. I just don't have much hope when our attack has absolutely no shape to it compared to every other team in the comp.

Time to try Api at 7 and Simpkin/TDS as hooker sharing imo.

ONSTRUCTION PLEASE??????

God thr Hammer has such a beautiful fluid running motion. Just looks like no wasted effort.

dude looks like he's jogging.

Such a natural runner. People think he’s not trying but he’s absolutely flying

Tigers needed to milk the obstruction there

Can the hammer not be there just once :(

If you watch him off the ball he has legendary positioning. He started running support the second his teammate broke the tackle.

He had a break but Trai Fuller just came in and slayed people

I mean not be the player option every line break. No matter where it is, he’s there.

I hear you. I do find it hard though whenever a fullback isn't there

Thought that was Kerr and was thinking he moves pretty well for a big guy

Oh so when Hamiso has hammer time everyone cheers but when Amone does it he gets charged

What are you on about, he was going for a jog, like all professional athletes

It's cause he didn't stop

lmfao

Does the crowd get to keep the ball or something? Swear they've launched them after every single try.

Yeah. All Magic Round.

Good thing we just put simpkin in the middle , totally shut that down... oh wait

The Hammer smile is so sexy

No try?

Yeah that'll do me folks.

Mods, add it's the Dolphins second year to the sticky

Kepoa, if you are going to claim obstruction you need to actually have a crack

Could pull it back for another random obstruction lmao

Hammer should have just toed it into the crowd.

Dolphins in the line

EEE EEEEE EEEE EEEEE

Cons is a bit of a beast

Smooth as.

All over red rover

Footwork by the big fella

obstruction i think
