Hi there, new fan to the NRL. The knights played incredibly well tonight despite the odds and the roosters attack and defence was great. I’ve never seen and I guess not used to the play slowing down so much in the couple last minutes. Why did the Roosters completely stop the play when the knights still had a chance in those last two minutes? I get they wanted to win but it just doesn’t seem like great sportsmanship for such an advanced game.
No hate or ragebait but it would be so much more entertaining if it was still intense in that last minute. Does this happen often?
Recently PVL was talking about possibly bringing in conferences to the nrl, I’m not sure where I sit with it, but with this rapid expansion it might be the play to ensure rivals play each other 2x with a further congested schedule. I would still lean towards no, however.
What are your thoughts?
