    Luke Brooks' development

    Tigers fan here but really don't see how last night's game disproves the broader point. He's shown glimpses in first grade so far, but that's it. For most of his first grade career he's been parked out on the left running short side plays (often very well). He's got a broader role this year...

    Sandow, Hayne, and Sticky.

    I find Stuart as offensive as the next guy, but don't quite get this. Sure, Sandow struggled against Lawrence, but I think he's had a pretty sharp start to the year. Hayne also had two try assists against the Tigers from three Parra tries, hardly f**k all. He does have a terrible manner with...

    Is Marshall a great player?

    Biased, but yes. His record speaks for itself, and he's achieved it without ever having played with the benefit of a dominant forward pack or a solid halves partner (but for 2005). He's come back from a series of career threatening injuries after many people wrote him off, and has returned...

    Fijian flyer

    He looks the goods. Let's hope he doesn't do a Jackson Kaufusi.

    Should Kearney be sacked?

    For all the injuries Kearney still had his first choice spine available 1. Locke 6. Marshall 7. Foran 9. Luke You can make a case for Hoffman and Johnson but pretty marginal - Locke was in career best form and Foran was the incumbent and had been playing good footy for the team thatjust won...

    4 Nations game 5 - england v NZ

    Eastmond = too union for international league. The Kiwis have injury issues but they've made do with Mannering and others in the centres before and still won big games, I don't think there are many excuses there. Their stunk all tournament, albeit against teams that played pretty well. Even...

    4 nations game 7 - 4 nations final - ENG V AUS

    Carvell did a couple of dopey things against NZ too though, that ridiculous flick pass coming out of England's end could have change the whole game had NZ got over on the next set. If Ellis is back surely McNamara will just revert to the team from the first game against the Kangaroos. The...

    Golden Boot?

    Apologies if this has already been done, couldn't see it anywhere else. Who does everyone reckon for the Golden Boot this year? In the past they've put a reasonably heavy weighting on end of year tournament performances (both individually and in terms of how the team has gone). With...

    4 Nations game 5 - england v NZ

    The Kiwis looked rudderless all tour, a pretty insipid showing all around (and in that sense not that different to their last couple of visits to the UK). They've finally got a halves combination to compete with the best but both were passengers for most of the trip. Surely there have to be a...

    4 Nations game 5 - england v NZ

    Looking forward to this one. England once again have their fans' hopes up. Which usually ends badly for them.

    Gareth Widdop should stay on bench

    Can only hope so. I thought Sinfield was typically average again on Sunday morning. He's a solid player and he came up with some very nice touches but for a player with alot of experience and ability he makes some absolute shockers. That knock on in the second half when he was too busy...

    Have the Tigers convinced Moltzen to stay? Release sought from his Saints contract

    Don't worry about come out of it looking amateurish, they went in to it looking like a bunch of jokers, and now they're looking even worse. The last CEO got the chop because Sheensy didn't like him. The new one signed Sheens up for another 3 years on an upgraded contract after Sheens said he...

    Penalty Count?

    From NRL stats, 1st half: Manly v Brisbane: 5 - 1 Tigers v Warriors: 4 - 0 Brisbane v Warriors: 3 - 0 Who says you don't get anything for winning first week in the McIntyre system? To be fair plenty of the penalties conceded by the Warriors and Brisbane early on in those games were dumb...

    Penalty Count?

    Over the first halves in the games they've had this final series, Maxwell and Hayne have blown penalties 12 - 1 in favour of the 'home' team.

    Action must be taken to stop the AFL killing league

    This idea (or something like it) is such a no brainer that I refuse to believe the NRL aren't working on something like it as we speak. We suggested something similar last year, with the main difference being you'd play the 'Western Sydney Cup' over three consecutive weeks with the 'final'...

    Wellington NRL bid

    The NRL still hasn't officially called for bids, and most recent signs are that they are thinking 2015 for expansion. There's a lot of water under the bridge between now and then. There is definitely some good marketing going on from some of the bid teams at the moment, but in the end it will be...

    For those saying "drop Ennis"...

    Farah hasn't quite been the same player since being dropped from Origin in 2009. He's still a huge talent but his decision making has been questionable in a way it wasn't when he was really standing up in 2006 - 2008 (when he should have been picked for Origin).

    Best of all time?

    Four if you count Young. Manly had Ballin in the 2008 GF didn't they?
