    To all the lurkers!!!

    Ive got a few sly dollars on the Cowboys making the eight. They arent the 'perrenial' losers of pre-, during, and post super league, but they still have to prove themselves.

    Super 12 is BACK!

    I think the term 'Rah Rah' comes from the supposed chants of the spectators. Reminds me of when myself anda few other members of a Victorian second division club went to the VRU grand final day. The Melbourne RU Club was playing in the first division grand final. A lot of their 'fans'...

    Cronulla + Premiership = Never Happen?

    John Lang seems to have the Penrith Panthers running like a well oiled machine, with very very few representative players... why could he not do it with Cronulla? I thought John wasa very good QRL coach who got found out at the next level, but now he seems to be making a purse out of a...

    High Tackles Etc:

    Change the high tackle rule to make any contact above the shoulders illegal. Police it really hard until the players learn to lower their 'target' area. Or maybe bring back the five minute sin bin, give the ref's less reason to hesitate about penalising foul play.

    Narrow it down to your 17

    Johnsy - how can you pick Ricketson in the second row with Fitzgibbon at lock? Im not saying that they couldnt play in those positions, but what tactical advantage do you expect to get from changing them from their (succesful) club positions?

    Blacklock wants out of Rugby

    Without wanting to get too involved in the rights and wrongs of this situation, I think someone (namely Bob Dwyer) should tell Nathan a few facts of life. Mainly - you cant go changing your mind every five minutes just because things arent working out. Regardless of the union/league...

    Dominant Tackle

    My view of a dominant tackle was that if a runner 'submitted' the ref would call the tackle 'dominant' and the tackler(s) would have extra time to regain their feet, more than just numbers in a tackle to slow it down. My idea of a 'dominant' tackle is not that the ref has to identify it, but...

    NFL quiz

    Not an answer, but I hope this thread gets moving. We need an 'out-of-town' quiz to keep things level.

    Rugby making a return back to the Olympics?

    Moff - I dont want to start the 'argument' again, but... "rugby league did not modify their rules, they created new ones (ie: the play the ball and limited number of tackles)" Rugby League did modify the rules, not create a whole new game all at once. Check out Darryl's history of rules...

    Rugby making a return back to the Olympics?

    "Rugby is a 15 a man game. Rugby 7s is just a modification of the rules and the number of players." Rugby is a 15 a man game. Rugby league is just a modification of the rules and the number of players. Can anyone spot the difference betweent the two statements above? "the differences...

    Rugby making a return back to the Olympics?

    "Itis the same sport, just the modifying of rules." - Still applies to league and union though Moff. Ask most North Americans (except Canadian Steve - I think we have finally educated him) or most Victorians... (except me, Pepe, Tamazoid, most of the Storm supporters) - Baseball came from...

    One day bonus point system

    Still flawed in my opinion, it rewards negative play.

    Rugby making a return back to the Olympics?

    its not even a sport, its just a modification of a sport. It would be like putting skins golf in the olympics They never had a chance. Moffo Some people could argue that league is a modification of union, and thereby - at least according to your definition Moff, not really a sport...

    Soccer on the way to a swift death in Oz??

    Someone has to start the change Moff, might as well be you. "An avalanche can begin with a single pebble" "Journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step" etc etc

    Soccer on the way to a swift death in Oz??

    I can see a future in soccer, yes, but not for me. In my opinion the best administrator of a sport has to have a genuine interest in it, but not have 'over-riding' links to any one club or section of it. You would also have to be prepared to work long and hard for close to f**k-all for the...

    Soccer on the way to a swift death in Oz??

    shit Moff, dont you have any faith in yourself? "i cant see it changing in the near future" "apart from the terrible admin" If you want a career in sport management you are going to have to be capable of making a difference right from the first day. If I had any interest in soccer I...
