Laughable. Oh well, not much they can do about it. Only one game broadcast a week, shouldn't, in theory, be too hard to organise it all.
You're making an assumption there's only one game broadcast a week.

Also, the NRL may well be asking clubs to use ISP games as curtain raisers without TV association and the clubs may be pushing back. Puts NSWRL between a rock and a hard place.

Always was one, Mr InTheKnow.

Anthony Overton from Hills is trialing with CBGW. Sione Tovo may also return to the Wolves after moving midseason to Thirlmere in group 6.

42 year old prop Mick Hawkings has left Hills to sign with Luke Branighan coached Oberon Tigers. He will be joined by Newcastle forward Josh Starling and Group 10 player of the year, Ben McAlpine. Branighan, McAlpine and Hawkings have all played with Mounties in the past.

Hills have named their coaches for 2018. Trevor Schodel has retained the RMC job and Michael Withers will be in charge of U/23 side in the junior league but there was no mention of SS, so perhaps with the cutting of ties with North Sydney, Hills will not run a SS side.

I'm pretty sure he got done for steroids a few years ago

That is a myth that has been propagated. He has played every season - steroids gives you a 2 year ban.

The real story is that he received a 3 month ban when he was 17 for testing positive to cannabis.

Was gonna say, I run teamlists for LU across all grades and have seen him in various comps from NYC through to SS, RMC and ISP

He played a few games on the wing in RMC for Auburn as a 17/18 year old and then started to bulk up and had a season with Easts NYC/Kingsgrove as a 2nd row, then moved to prop at Manly NYC before he switched back to centre and was regarded as a star because none of the backs in NYC can tackle.

It was back to Auburn the next season and played one game for Canterbury ISP and then last year he started with Illawarra ISP but couldn't crack a spot so back to Auburn again.

If he is with Cronulla now he may get a few games with Newtown or CBGW.
