‘Highway robbery’: Latrell brain snap sparks debate; legend’s big Ponga call — Talking Pts

Souths have the bye next week and will then face the Roosters in the final round of the regular season in a match that will likely decided which of the arch rivals play finals. “It would be highway robbery if they give him a week. That’s just frustration. If you want to put bums on seats, you want Latrell playing... because as we’ve seen when those two clubs get together, something always happens.”
“I’ve got Kalyn Ponga’s form at the moment as the best fullback in the competition. At the moment he is playing better than any other fullback in the competition. Australian coach Mal Meninga has already backed the incumbent James Tedesco to once again wear the No.1.“There’s a whole heap of fantastic fullbacks in our competition,” Meninga said previously.
His inclusion would be a huge boost for the Storm, but Bellamy made it clear his coaching staff aren’t expecting anything of the star fullback. However, when he does return to full fitness, which could be during the finals period, where does Meaney fit? The equation is simple - if the Roosters beat the Tigers and then arch rivals South Sydney the following week in the final round, they’ll play finals.
The Roosters started the year as premiership favourites but they’ve left their run extremely late and any losses from here will end their season. “Players just not playing as we expected but they’ve won four of their last five, they’ve won three on the trot. They will be confident.Brandy dissects Roosters' 2023 season | 01:46After a hot start to the season, it was looking dicey for the Sharks at the completion of Round 22.
Tracey’s experience in the halves and ability as a ballplayer has added a new dimension to the Sharks which will hold them in good stead when they face the top teams in the Despite losing four tight games, the Dragons look to have turned a corner over the past month and a rival player Christian Welch even said their supporters should be “excited for next year”.
NRL great Cooper Cronk believes he knows how Flanagan convinced Hunt to stay after the star No. 7 asked to be released from his contract until the end of 2025.“We know Ben Hunt as a footy player, he’s honest, he has character and he’s tough and he basically used Ben Hunt’s character and traits against himself and said ‘listen you’re staying so turn up and play’ and he’s done a great job. Three try assists tonight and firing shots at Jahrome Hughes.
Hunt’s Kangaroos coach Mal Mengina said the Dragons halfback was starting to get help at the struggling club. The 2023 Warriors have been a team that has provided many excellent storylines and the play of ‘DWZ’ has certainly one of those. It’s not uncommon in today’s NRL to see wingers either fly high, contort their body in the air, plant the ball down with one hand or all of those things to score a try.Warriors coach Andrew Webster gushed over Watene-Zelezniak’s ‘unbelievable’ season and labelled him the best winger in the competition after the Manly win, crediting the all-round improvement the winger has made.
Star backrower Ryan Matterson controversially took a three-game ban over a fine after he was charged by the match review committee following the grand final. “There’s no sugar coating it, that was a foolish mistake. We addressed it at the start of the season but now we’re dissecting the year and we look back at ifs, buts and maybes, that’s one of those areas that you look at and you well that’s cost us, that has genuinely cost us.
