The other side of the coin, in this regard, is an interesting discussion. Well written and thoughtfully looked at.
Drew-Sta - 88
An interesting and possibly controversial look at the people, and in this case one in particular, who write the articles that look into the lives of the players. Quite poignant in today's climate.
Dave Q - 94
I was a bit lost for words in regards to this article. The score really says it all. Very touching effort that holds quite a few poignant truths. Thanks for sharing it.
Everlovin' Antichrist - 90
Fantastic effort. An article I can sympathise with. So many showers since and the stench of supporting Manly still remains. It does make you wonder at what joke is being played out.
Rexxy - 87
The transition from live games on radio to television and the impending broadcasts on the interenet and mibile phones has been an interesting journey for the rugby league viewer. Where technology takes it from here will be interesting.

Amadean - 88
Quite well written. An interesting spin on the theme of heroes and idols.

I was one confused referee as I reached the end of this one. I should have marked it first and I may have been a little more ahead on the clues. Having marked nine articles already left me a bit addled. Great effort
Titan Uranus - 88
The off season, a rugby league tragics biggest fear. At least this year we have something that will keep us in check up until Christmas.

The girls in my office sat and stared as I laughed through this article. My wife would probably commiserate with you wholeheartedly. Well written.
Titanic - 92
This was one of the more "interesting" articles that I have marked this season. It is one that comes screaming in on your blind side and smashes you much like Steve Matai has done on quite a few occassions to the opposition this season. Well done.

Truly a great article and one that almost got your team home in the end. Fantastic effort.
Firstly I would like to be the first to congratulate the 2008 F7's Premiers - the Gold Coast Titans. A truly great effort. Well done to you all.
Commiserations to the 'Bags, your efforts this season have been truly remarkable.
I would just like to say that this was a very good Grand Final, the efforts of both teams were strong and this is reflected in the scores. There were some very original, funny and quite touching efforts amongst them all. I feel privileged to have been asked to mark them.
