Week two of commenting until the picture of Freddy looking like he just saw his mum peeing while standing up is fixed to match the other three photos

Keep up the good fight mate, I would also like to remind everyone about Blokecraft 2025😊

[@marcusspagnardi1902]

Thanks for abother great year gang, Enoy your break and looking forward to 2025!

Miss me with the nicho hynes segment. Most weeks we get told how great a bloke he is and how the criticism of him is unfair and how he was apparently injured in finals. Yes, the comments about things outside his football ability are unfair and unnecessary. But criticism re: his football ability is certainly warranted. He did miss that tackle in origin at a crucial time. He did incur the 7 tackle set that gave qld field position to score (prior to suiallii getting sent off). He took years to engineer a win against a top 8 team in clubland. He took years to be part of a finals win. He was a spot in defence when he made kangaroos and was directly responsible for at least one try through the middle. Mitchell Pearce summed him up well when he observed that nicho is simply a good space player - and without the space that he is afforded against mediocre teams at clubland he struggles. That does not mean he’s not good. It just means that when discussing him balance is warranted - He is not a top 5 half.

@@mathiaslaskic6594 couldn’t agree more

[@baaron7]

Hadn't really thought it like that, but it's kinda true. I'd like to see him play Fullback for the Sharks, because I don't think HB is his best position and in Fullback he'll have much more opportunities to find that space he needs.

@lukebonello4750 how they let that happen is beyond me

[@BlokeInABar]

“I chuckle sometimes when I see… not critical sharks fans because that’s reasonable. They are allowed to have their opinion. But when I see OVER critical fans about Hynes. Think about how far you’ve come as a club.” We never said you can’t criticise his footy matter of fact we said it’s fair to critique his footy. We specifically spoke about people that take it too far & how that vitriol doesn’t really match up with the fact that the club has come so far. Definitely seems like a sore spot for you bro as it kind of looks like you’ve misheard what I said. Hopefully he kills it next year. Just to ad I also said “There’s a very real conversation about whether Hynes is a better 1, 6 or 7”

[@LiquidAcid1]

Great stuff guys. enjoy your time off. Nice refreshing take on the PNG sutiation, used to the classic cynicical response to anything out of the ordinary.

[@BlokeInABar]

Thx mate!

[@Tdkcollective]

Thanks for the year boys 🎉

[@BlokeInABar]

Thx bro!

[@Senpaizy]

If ya need something to talk about over the off season, what would your boys All NBA starting 13 look like? Imagine a Prime Russell Westbrook at 1, out leap, out sprint, out hustle. Excellent playmaker(theoretically) Would be a sight

[@iksnaustralia6262]

Boys Tyson Fury locked himself away hasn’t even spoken to or seen his wife or kids for 3 months. Absolutely zero distractions he’s all in on this one

[@jarrydblake3689]

Cowboys Don't need Bateman. We have Shibasaki and a few young lads in Kira and Lahrs coming through who will be household NRL names before 2028. We should be looking to target an Outside back and honestly Tom Opacic would be a good depth Cheapie for 1 year. Has his NQLD connection and isn't a dead play. Even if Luki and Nanai both play Origin/injuries to 1, we have Lawton and Kai O'donnel to cover that spot. We need outside backs, not Forwards. Sounds very Marty Tauapu to cowboys even though the only truth to that was Marty manager being rejected every time.

[@lukebonello4750]

Comment for beaks bag: What is the best NRL team, to never win a premiership?

[@jack4215]

BEAKS BAG - do you think that the starting 13 numbers should reflect where players are playing? for e.g: 2 LW, 5 RW, 11 LBR, 12 RBR, 3 LC, 4 RC Certain coaches constantly name players in one position & they’ll play in another position. When gambling companies have such a big investment/ partnership in the game - it seems fair to the punters, that the numbers reflect their position on the field. You could load up on a multi & then the LW starts the game at RC. So that players not targeting the same defenders. Fair enough if there’s mid game injuries & players have to move positions. At least they’ll have a chance to score in their normal position. Appose to playing the full 80mins in another spot on the field.

[@BluntedRazor98]

1:40:27 lol ok Matt..Fonua-Blake is great but is not enough to transform this team to contest with the top sides they struggled to beat in finals and even win a comp.

[@ndmarshmello9804]

Thanks Beak for answering my question, was just throwing it out there. Would you like to see a little bit more freedom of when the 18th man can be activated? Instead of switching to 5 on the bench like RL Guru and SC mentioned?

[@zaneknox8285]

Do you think that the 250 million going towards the pacific islands for development will change them to tier 1 nations and then we will have less pacific players in origin?

[@iksnaustralia6262]

There’s literally never been even a small indication Turbo would go to 6 ever, stop the Mayo lads jjeeeeeeezzzz 😂😂😂 Won’t happen bet your first born on it fellas

[@ESAS1988]

Let's discuss mamm situation i hope mamm finds peace with everything his going through big ups and respect for fronting up like a real man but it was hes discision to take drugs and the most important thing to come out of this is drugs is never an option drugs ruins every thing lives, familys also that $850 fine is ridiculous remember i just want everybody reading this message drugs is never a option no matter who you are where you are in life I have no answer but we as people of humanity know that lifestyle is for no-one love and peace.....

[@jaromeasdale7157]

The punishment is is exactly what I would expect from qld courts. They are soft on crime. The NRL has to give him a big wack. I can only imagine the fan reception when he is playing again.

[@Lorenzogino]

from a logistics pov, png makes more sense than perth. time zone, travel, all that, is easier for them than flying into and out of WA.

[@davincidribbler7427]

Boys, the raiders aren’t winning a comp with or without Robson any time soon. No point bringing him in and spending the money.

[@countrytodd4614]

Is Beak rebranding in 2025 to bloke with bars and becoming MC Beak? Dropping diss tracks to Drake? We will find out

[@stormlova]

Turbo got most of his plays set up for him, Yeo or Dearden deserved it much more.

[@timshannon8499]

Can’t believe you didn’t comment on Ezra’s complete let off by the qld courts

[@fasterout777]

Mitchell Moses to reunite with Brooks at Manly. Isaac Moses all over the club, DCE money just transfers the MM.

Merry Xmas bro!

[@farazalam5772]

So Guru says souths can win a comp but broncos arent a serious competiror for the comp despire making a GF and have the same pack as souths with carrigan haas Walsh and latrell Lol

[@iksnaustralia6262]

Piss off the Tigers to Brisbane to Merge with Easts they’re a joke. They can form a West Brisbane with Ipswich Toowoomba & Easts DONE. Bring back Western Suburbs Magpies so that club can be run like its fans deserve they are outright pathetic at this point
