Nobody knows what to do. Make an arrow? The crowd looks so confused. What a depressing way to start the grand final.

NRL Grand Final about to kick off, and the Bahrain in Malaysia will get racing at the same time the game starts due to rain and thunderstorms.

Yes I don’t know what to prioritize.

The NRL needs to rethink grand final entertainment. That was pedestrian to say the least despite the fantastic intention to tribute Jai Arrow.

The only good thing is how good everything looks at night. I know purists prefer day time but the look on tv at night is brilliant.

It’s the Roosters’ first NRL title since 2019.

The Roosters did the double after the women’s side won earlier.

Heartbreak for the Knights and the Newcastle community.

That was a great game… the Knights should be proud that they pushed the Roosters this close… just one point in it… even though the Knights led 12-0 early.

Is the NRL skimping on decorations for the presentation stage? I can see a row of cardboard pylons showing the NRL trophy. The AFL has LED vertical screens for the GF.
