I know it's early and this thread will probably die, but I miss /nrl/ and am hyped for Supercoach.

First for /rug/

/afl/ runs /nrl/

Who would Serena play for in the NRL lads?

I'm thinking StormGODS

Literally marrying reddit

This thread will not die on my watch.

>signing with the Dragons
rip Hunt

Dragons are the ones who are fucked, they paid massive overs for a mediocre player who was carried by Milford and his forward pack.

DELETE THIS

Hype as fuck for SC. This year is my year.

Plus I've actually missed you guys.

Can anyone post the paywalled Sangster articles here?

who's here?

You should listen to your heart, and NOT Tom Sangster.

How am I expected to know all the fringe cheapies from obscure clubs who are going to debut this year without Tommy? He's a good jumping off point.

Hunt is the best young half in the NRL - fact

The only competition is Ash Taylor and Cleary and they havnt had enough time to prove their ability to perform year on year - fact

Milford is a running meme who will eventually be a slow fat fob or an injured slow fat fob or a crazy fob - fact

St George made the best investment possible - fact

Clearly or Taylor would've been speculating - fact

>hunt
>young
26 is NOT young by NRL standards

They will reveal themselves by the time Round 1 is here, do not worry.

Look at the ages of Lockyer, Johns, Thurston, Cronk

Then say 26 is an old half

All of those halves were good enough to last that long, Hunt is NOT good enough. He's an average in play kicker and organiser whose value has been massively inflated because of the thin halves market. Gareth Widdop is a better half than him, and he's primarily a runner.

Hunt is not elite and never will be

Therefore St George overpayed

Widdop is trash, Hunt is better, if the only competition you can come up with is Widdop you're still showing he is the best 1 of 2 halves

I mentioned Widdop because he's currently at the Dragons. They would have done better to stick with him and bring up a locally grown talent rather than pay massive overs for an incredibly average player who has difficulty creating points, which is what the Dragons bought him for.

Who are the better halves who will be playing NRL in 5 years

Elgey, Taylor, DCE, Cleary, Adam Reynolds, Te Maire Martin, Shaun Johnson, Brooks, Moses

Completely forgot future Cowboys, Queensland and Australian captain Michael Morgan too.

weak bait

Elgey - 16 FG games. Wanna pick how he'll be going in 5 years?
Taylor - As above
DCE - Injured constantly, meme without an elite side filled with Australian and Kiwi reps and a non drug fucked Foran
Cleary - See Elgey/Taylor
Reynolds - Disgusting injured useless meme without English and Australian reps around him
Martin - Who
Johnson - Meme
Brooks - Lol
Moses - Potential but still too small a sample size and only played good for 1 year

daily reminder that /nrl/ RUNS Sup Forums

Hunt is useless without a pack full of QLD reps and Milford next to him, and even with them he's very average. He also literally dropped a Grand Final. Sezer could also possibly be on the better than Hunt in 5 years list, but I don't think he'll last.

Reminder that Hunt was the only good player in a team stacked with rep players on 2014.

Reminder that he carried THEM to a finals spot.

That was about 3 years ago lad. He lost his touch and been shit since then.

Didn't know there was a bread up, was too busy watching NFL

Based fucking Patriots

>tfw my Patriots win another owl

Based Rory Kostjasyn out for 12 weeks lads

>Roosters year before Carney: Wooden spoon
>Roosters post Carney and pre Maloney: 13th
>Roosters post Maloney: 15th

Hmm... Really gets you scratching the old noodle doesn't it?

Almost like Pearce isn't strong enough of mind to carry a team and is just some retard who learnt how to kick and throw passes to big men

lads should i go on holiday in straya or new zealand

nz, unless you dont goto the aus cities which are just la/ny wannabe clones with shitty beaches like brazil

No.

Peem Pist Ponday

Reminder that Ponga WILL save the Knights and lead them to the promised land.

Are cunts on meth about this cunt? He played 2 games

twitter.com/lucethoughts/status/823413892000792576

JUST

I thought the bhunt signing was good albeit 200k a year overpriced until I saw that it wasn't even for this year

>poo poorge pooawarra poogans

WalkGOD, you here mate?

Broncos fans shouldn't worry, they have a promising young talent named Benji Marshall coming through the ranks

>yfw Roberts gets fired and Bunji is reborn as an elite centre under Uncle Wayne

rip ivan

Who's making the league? Where is Roosterman when you need him?

Chickenkid has never made the league m8

N might do it again.

I think dessy might have helped coordinate this signing, well at least from a few sources i’ve heard from. Also expect James Graham (released with a year to go from the pups after dessy signs with the dragons mid july, Will Hoppa and Keiran Foran at the dragons in 2018 with Des. Say goodbye to Widdop, Nightingale, Dugan, hutchison, Mann, packer, mosoe and mccrone (des is not a fan).

Organised by Doust and Bruce Gordon, to save Doust’s job and get them moving up the ladder, finally. Expect Kelly Egan and David Warwick together again at the Dragons (those two being housed at the Tigers this year) to take a few youngsters to the Wollongong coast.

Des is a very smart operator (and so is Bruce Gordon).

based matt

>tfw the Dragons win a premiership before Wayne Bennett

Manly are literally winning the transfer window lads

Also, I can't tell whos recruitment has been worse, the warriors or west tigers

is there a convenient list anywhere of all the transfers?

What are you doing until midnight?

DCE is roiding

How many premierships/golden boots/dally ms/origin wins does Hunt have again?

Reading The Possessed.

Supercoach launch is being pushed back.

Is Ben Hunt related to Karmichael Hunt?

Ben Hunt is almost 30 and hasn't achieved anything despite being part of the Broncucks Ltd.

Half brothers.

Rex Hunt is their father, but different mothers.

AFL is better.

He has achieved more than 100% of the posters in /nrl/.

Scott Bolton will be elite in SC this year.

Is Mya Diamond related to Michael Diamond?

>h-he achieved m-more than y-you tho
Pretty pathetic that he has to be compared to losers on Sup Forums to look like he has a decent career.

I have won as many hips as Bhunt has

AMA

Have you had an impact in the direct loss of a hip like he has?

I support Canberra even though I live in Brisbane

AMA

nah lad

Can we get a list going of all the /nrl/ supercoaches who aren't shitcunts? Make sure they all get a spot? I remember a really good side missing out last year and that's a real shame given how much deadweight there was.

:(

In Joshy Chudleigh in for a big year lads? Should I get him in my team

lmao

SuperCoach is going to die soon.

>More features are being removed as time goes on
>The site can't even be up and running for its scheduled release date

>tfw don't want to start with Smith but literally no other HOK even comes close

What have they removed now?

Segeyaro will be a good backup hooker if his contract with Cronulla gets approved. Not much harm in having him over Smith until Origin finishes.

Last year didn't have Origin or Finals SC. Apparently they were looking at getting rid of Draft this year but we won't know until it gets released.

>tfw you like the memeness that is picking a draft team
>tfw you don't care that noone will look after their teams
>tfw no /nrl/ draft comp

>he's a results orientated babby

HAHAHA FUCKING LOSER @ EVERY THING

Lifted a combined total of 8300kg tonight lads

Ready for being a NRL player

Three times in my life ive been mistaken for an NRL player by casuals lads, I'm pretty swole

Based Sean

Try out for the next season of the rookie m8

there's a surplus of second rowers I don't see myself bringing anything new to the game

I also lifted you're mother tonight. First time in my life I got mistaken for Captain Ahab.
