An interesting insight into what it was like to switch codes in England in the late 50's. Poor bloke wasnt even allowed to enter the Union clubhouse for decades!

I was wondering wth flag football was.
League really needs to get touch footy into the Brisbane Olympics. But watch instead AFL will get some crap in there.

In the space of a month Manu has gone from loving rugby and travelling the world to wanting to come home

Why Joey Manu could be on the verge of an NRL return

The 28-year-old is considering asking for a release from his French rugby deal to return home due to family reasons.

God I miss the 80’s

Forever Young was their main song. Recently got reworked by David Guetta and Ava Max. Still holds up well today.

 

[ParraEelsNRL]

Oh deary me I really feel old now. In saying that, seeing Moses divide the great orange and black sea, I don't mind being old. Seriously, 60's music through to late 80's was pretty freaking good.

Both good songs but forever young was/is an 80’s classic.

And in saying that, this is a union thread so I should talk union, wtf was that plonker Eddie Jones doing in the Parramatta coaches box? That's not a good sign

Don’t listen to anything else but mostly got the 80’s radio stations on at work.

Can’t find the full link but it’s basically saying salary cap will rise to 15 million per club which seems on the money and that will attract wallabies

Which is stacked with star players that would instantly make a splash in Rugby League.

They should be focusing spending the money on all the juniors coming through, especially those who are playing both codes, to get them in the league pathways. Also go out into the Pacific Islands to make sure league becomes the dominant code in the South Pacific. Forget wasting millions on current Wallabies. Most of those will head OS anyway. Union will be semi professional in Australia within the decade.
