Qld Premier Rugby 2024

[Blackjack]

I think Wests will be too strong in both games. They are more aggressive in Colts and harder on the ball. Prem grade are out for revenge after being robbed last year. It’s a great day when the Filth lose.

Obviously a Wests supporter. Robbed last year.......seriously!!!

Wests won't be back to the GF for a while now. Most of their rebels player have signed with other super rugby teams won't be able to return to play club for Wests.

Congrats to Pup McCormack as well. There was a fair bit of pressure on him coming into the season to show that he could win it all.

He’d had a solid few years in Sydney and then the first season after he leaves Randwick, they win the premiership. Then coming into a side which had just won a premiership and was largely intact meant the expectations to win again were high.

This didnt age well haha

If West left the niggle at the gate and focused more on playing rugby they would have done much better - Louis tough guy Werchon cost West the game not the Ref, absolute pork chop terrible behavior throughout the entire game and hes suppose to be a professional what a joke.

 

[Sir Charles]

I think Wests will win both Colts 1 and Prem grade on Sunday. If that happens Sylvan Road will be rocking!

Not sure if it was rocking at Sylvan Rd but It was rocking at Crosby Park haha

Yeah, unfortunately for Wests, Werchon’s aim yesterday was more about beating Brother’s as a club than actually winning the game.

No supporter from either side that I’ve spoken to has had much good to say about his performance yesterday.

I’ve actually enjoyed his cameos for the Reds.

What’s the go with the Wests 12, that Lebron fella - hopefully he gets some interest from a Super team (if he hasn’t already)..

Lebron Naea - 20 year old from the Rebels squad, had a great game last weekend too. Should be a few teams looking at him.

 

[Reds Rick]

A big, physical 12 with plenty of skill, the sort of inside centre Aus could really do with.

Sadly it's been his problem for years - going back as far as school, and unless something changes will probably mean he's reached his ceiling.

He is clearly a better talent than Kalani Thomas (in my biased one eyed west opinion) dude has a better pass, better boot and the position flexibility for the reds 23 that he can also play flyhalf.

but Les Kiss would be thinking twice because of his hot headness.

I have not watched the replay yet (probably won’t for awhile) but did Werchon get pushed in the head before he got the yellow card? Shouldn’t have retaliated there… good job to brothers scheming to get under Louis skin.

No mate don’t follow either club

Yeah, Louis did get a small push, but its just two little blokes butting shoulders, Louis shouldn't have reacted in the way he did.

I don't think Les will be too concerned, he can work on controlling that temper. I still remember Horwill being extremely hot headed and then he was given the Reds captaincy and a light switch went off in his head.

Carty's game has more up side and Louis knows it, Hence the niggle and shove in the face of his closest rival for his spot.

 

[ForceFan]

Well-earned victory Brothers.

That is a tough argument to make given he is not even first choice at Brothers

 

[Oldschool]

Louis was playing 2nd grade at the filth..........

 

[Interested Viewer]

Agree and IMHO Mosiah Christian and Jacob Morrison are better halfbacks than Louis.

 

[SouthernX]

To be fair. Take a look at some of wests recent success and you can pinpoint some of it back to brothers reserve grade team.

Carl Marshall recruited very well in 2020 when he was at wests bringing over players from reserve grade who then went onto high honours with the dogs.

Dobbins, Werchon & Faingaanuku all have had super rugby contracts. Liam Usher another former brothers reserve grade is a handy prop who’s now been killing it down in Shute shield this system.

I think other qpr clubs should target the filth reserve grade team in recruitment considering they went undefeated.

Surely you are joking?? Christian is a very selfish player who only plays for himself. Didn’t Werchon go to Wests because Gabbet favoured Mosiah??
