    Should this be a concern for Knight's fans?

    And Matt Gidley is just a PR figurehead who had existing links to the club. I mean he's an ex footy player just a few years retired. I don't think he runs the day to day operations the way a traditional managing director/CEO would. I thought that had been acknowledged when HSG 'installed' him...

    Should this be a concern for Knight's fans?

    Wind up in this context means ceasing operations and selling assets to pay debts. Should be interesting to see how this one pans out

    Sheens quits

    coached the tigers to an overall losing record and 3 finals series in 10 seasons. on top of that some baffling salary cap management and strange recruitment and retention decisions. not too sure how many other NRL clubs would stand for that coaching record, not many i would hope.

    Has Mal Meninga got any morals?

    Nathan Tinkler relinquishes ownership of the Newcastle Knights

    income tax purposes. why else the phrases "it will be his primary place of residence" and "he will still spend alot of time in Australia" tell you all you need to know lovable bunch mining magnates are

    George Piggins - Crowe and Holmes a Court spied on me

    If George Piggins wants to be there, he could be there just like any other able bodied human. There comes a point in time where a wounded sense of pride becomes irrelevant. If piggins missed a rabbitohs grand final win because of events that happened 10 years ago then he would only be robbing...

    The Anti Grant Agenda

    Buzz Rothfields articles are written with the structure, vocabulary and articulation you would expect from an average 7 year old kid. They usually start with something moronic like "its official, the NRL is in crisis" and proceed to deteriorate in value from there. How could such a shockingly...

    Travis Burns

    :? Don't forget that loadings for similar and non similar incidents come into it. As well as previous carry over points. Not to mention that burns charge is intentional high tackle which is going to have a high base penalty. The fact he mouthed off at the bloke right before the tackle is...

    Bailey V's Hoffman

    You see guys going clench fist at the ball in an attempt to knock it out before a try is scored all the time you dope. What do you want him to do poke the ball with his finger? Does that suggest going for the ball? Geez

    Time for a contract to mean a contract

    Well obviously you can't phyically stop a player leaving, but they both had to sit time out of the game (and in williams case play compensation) for the length of their remaining contracts so there's not much of an issue with you poor examples

    Who's going to sign Gagai?

    Actually there's been several going back atleast 2 years. Doesn't take a genius to figure out why a player of his talent has Copley ahead of him in first grade. Of course, i wouldn't leave that job to a bloke of Johnsy's mental capacity.

    Dave Taylor has potential to be the game's greatest ever forward

    Dave Taylor will probably never reach his full potential while clubs like south's and the titans keep offering him big contracts based on his potential. When made to work for a first grade spot in 09, he showed career best form. Now hes playing at 125 kegs which has got to be higher than any...

    Matty Johns / the new ACA with Farrah

    On NRL on fox John's has given Farah a rap for the way he conducted himself but i don't think Farah handled himself well at all. Answering questions with questions or if not that answers like "well i'm sure people have their opinions on you too" shows Farah just didn't have any real answers...

    120Kgs and above

    115kg's is about the ceiling for 1st grade. Imagine how good Dave Taylor would be going if he was playing at 115 instead of 125 like he used to be. Also tend to think that player weights on club websites are sometimes way out of wack. The roosters say Tai Tuivasa is 110KG. Seems highly...

    iSelect Gold Coast Titans granted new license

    What would make you say that. How many NRL footy clubs make money? Most need to be serviced by poker machine revenue to stay afloat at all. No NRL club could even come remotely close to sustaining a property development company entering into multimillion dollar transactions.

    iSelect Gold Coast Titans granted new license

    The titans center of excellence sounds f**king shambolic. Would love to be an auditor scrutinising the titans business dealings and financials. :crazy:

    Danny Weidler baseless sensationalism/gutter journalism thread

    Yeah so what? He probably just didn't have cash on him. Are people supposed to believe a bloke earning $85,000 in this country can't afford a pie and a coke? Can we get back to some semblence of reality here.

    T-Rex facing 7-10 week suspension

    It deserves the grading it got. Theres a very simply way of looking at it. The outcome could have ended one blokes career on the spot. So 7 weeks for that sort of tackle is not that high a price to pay. He should have definetaly been sent off too, but referee's have become way too gun shy to...

    Crime Command Takes Over NRL Betting Inquiry

    As long as you put your bets on a multi, it means you can never be found guilty of match fixing
