yeah certainly looking good, true that. Cannot wait for round two, bring it on ...
Rugby League
- Thread starter rcw1
- Start date
I have always thought that Wayne Bennett was over rated as a coach, most of his wins were with the Broncos when they had most of the Australian team going around every week.
I could have trained them to win a few premierships
BUT I think this is Wayne Bennetts greatest win ever, to get a new team ready to win against the Roosters is amazing.
Good evening macca
A Wayne Bennett remarkable feat too was when he coached the Maroons to an upset 2-1 series win over New South Wales in 2020.
rcw1 was luckily at the 3rd SoO in BrisVagus and watched with series winning game.
Probably another Big Wayne’s forgotten feats goes back to 1985 in the Brisbane Winfield Cup Grand Final against a Wally Lewis led star studded Wynnum Manly team. Wally’s team flogged Wayne Bennetts Souths in the 1984 GF, but come another year later Bennett got his sweet revenge. rcw1 was fortunate to be at both these grand finals.
Probably also his NRL Saint George Illawarra Dragons v Sydney Roosters Grand final victory in 2010 was a pretty special having left the Broncos to coach St George Illawarra.
Plenty water flowed under the bridge since them days …
I await with utmost interest as to what awaits Redcliffe in 2023.
Kind regards

I'm more of the mind that through what ever means avalible limiting unnecessary brain damage is a good thing.

OK Storm will drop a fair way.
Forwards are under par at best.

Hi UMike, yeah, disappointing weren't they, outplayed on all fronts, and the Dogs... fair dinkum... they certainly wanted it.
Redcliffe beat Canberra, they are the toast of the peninsular ha ha ha ha ha; walking on water they are...
Panthers went back to their game plan and pulled off a good win against the Rabbits.
Sharkies did enough to beat the Eels
Roosters beat the warriors in sydney.
The Titans got rolled convincingly by the Dragons
The West Tigers lost again, in a tight one by the Knights. Poor ol Ponga, another concussion. Hopefully he changes some tackling technique so as to reduce risk of a head knock. Reckon he was knocked out before he hit the ground, sickening.
The Cowboys fell back down to earth with a thud beaten in the second half by a barnstorming Broncos.
Round three this week
Thursday, Sea Eagles v Eels
Friday, Knights v Dolphins; Roosters v Rabbits
Saturday, Titans V Storm; Cowboys v Warriors (rcw1 will be at this game in Townsville); Broncos v Dragons
Sunday, Dogs v Wests Tigers *Game of the round for mine; Raiders v Sharks
Have a very nice week.
Kind regards

Good evening,
Read the Cowboys team list for the Saturdays match against the Warriors. Really good to see Tom Chester in the 13, playing full back. Watch him play if you think of it.
Luv to see the young local blokes given an opportunity, thats what the Cowboys were originally set up for, to provide that pathway to footy players living and playing in the northern parts of Queensland. Happy are those that wait and then do whatever it takes to succeed, respect that. Anyways, see what the lad does on the weekend, hope he goes okay. Opportunities like this don't come round too often.
Kind regards

naaaaaaaaaaa Roosters v Rabbits game take the prize ,,,, and the Dolphins... 3 outta 3. They play the Broncos next Friday at Suncorp. Be a battle and ahalf that one ha ha h aha Wonder if Brisbane will roll out the red carpet for big wayney ha ha ha ha
Have a very nice weekend
Kind regards

So then the Cowboys thought all they had to do was turn up at Qld Country Bank Stadium their home patch and win ….
That was not the case. Well done to the Warriors they turned up to play.
So did the Titans they beat the Storm the day.
Kind regards

Good evening
Well what an excellent start to the NRL competition... Round six this weekend.
Storm v Roosters (Gotta be a special game this little beauty);
Bulldogs v Rabbitohs;
Cowboys v Dolphins;
Panthers v Sea Eagles;
Broncos v Raiders;
Titan v Dragons;
Knights v Warriors; and
West Tigers v Eels.
Tom Chester a young player rcw1 identified at the commencement of the season as someone who has what it takes to play NRL, has just played his 3rd game in the number one jersey in a row. Thought he did extremely well and more than held his own in such a crucial position, but with Drinkwater coming back into the side, makes one wonder what will happen with Chester.
Maybe Jake Granville, whom rcw1 respects as a player and decent human being, may well not make the 17, this week, with Chester sitting on the bench in his place, maybe.
Onwards and upwards.
Kind regards

Nikorima get 10 in bin just before half time.
Cowboys still in this one.
