    Players Performances

    How can you time your run when you've got a dummy half who picks up the ball and takes a couple of steps? Fein takes about 3 seconds from a hit up timing and in 2-3 seconds that's about 5+ metres. For a period there we were making less than 10 metres in our set of six and this was commented on...

    Best banner i have seen for years

    I think we have to take into consideration the time and day of the matches. Sunday arvo will get more families and people without prior engagements on Saturday nights. And let's not forget other sporting codes.

    Plus and Minus

    I said exactly the same thing last week about Gatis and Fein and I'll echo it again this week. Getting Gatis to start will get the team forward momentum and that works in our favour, particularly for our halves who are not real ball players. Fein is more effective when we are rolling...

    What do you guys think of .....

    Of the handful of games that I've seen this year, his defence technique is indeed poor and the other weakness I feel that he has is his work ethic. But, he definitely can score tries, is good playing out wide and he hits hard but needs to take the man and ball down in the tackle.

    Craig Stanaway - Ace Reporter

    All I can say is rugby is scared!! They changed their points scoring, rules and adopted league aspects to their game. Their so called manly scrums have turned into a patter cake fiasco. I wonder what their new rules will be? 1 Penalties will now be worth 2 points. 2 Drop goal will now...

    Craig Stanaway - Ace Reporter

    How does it go again? No news is good news or any news is good news? I was thinking earlier today that our media are always having a go at minorities. Is that because the majority are always supportive at putting the boot into guys struggling at the bottom of the ladder? Here's some examples...

    Raiders Post Match Reaction

    Why did Cleary start with Fien? Gatis takes it to the line and gets forward momentum. I'm afraid the Warriors have been reading their press this week or simply didn't turn up with the right attitude. The first few minutes showed that things weren't going to look pretty. I only bothered to...

    What chance the World Cup ?

    I think we're getting some depth with our players and those playing NRL are getting a taste of intensity and sustaining pressure. All they have to do is turn up on the day with the right attitude as with most teams, so I'll give em a chance.

    15 apply for Kiwi coaching Job

    I'm not sure if that is true, maybe Bergman wanting to get Chalmers to get him in more likely. And with a player exodus, he obviously brought something to Counties who were on a hiding for nothing last year. Good luck to Bluey, it's a pity he added negativity to the games perception in NZ with...

    Warriors embarrass Union

    I think maybe with the introduction of our secondary schools team playing aussies' one this year may introduce some interest. Murray Mexted's academy is what we need, where club's can send an upcoming player to or someone could sponsor to send. Something like what the ARL does with it's Jets...

    Warriors embarrass Union

    It was reported a couple of weeks ago that the NRL spend $22million on development programmes. Now imagine if the NZRL spent $2million on development let alone another $20 million.

    15 apply for Kiwi coaching Job

    Kerrisk should've got the sack anyway. Who would retain a coach for a Bartercard team that has failed to deliver on all his self assured promises over the past few years. Bergman can talk up a good game, but certainly lacks in the coaching department. I'll give him credit for his work with...

    Grannygate hangover.

    League: NZRL ready to make changes after emerging in the red 5:00AM Thursday August 09, 2007 By Peter Jessup The New Zealand Rugby League's accounts show a deficit of just over $500,000 for 2006, due largely to the smaller-than-expected crowds for the Kiwis games here. The Kiwis...

    Latu banned for six matches

    As a person of blended ethnicities, I can tell you that Asians get racial abuse from all "types" of people from NZ. Maori are racist towards Polynesians and vice versa. There are racial fights between Somalians and Polynesians. Asians are racist towards other Asians who come different...

    Michael Crockett sex scandal

    Of course it sounds a bit dodgy. Roger "the rapist" Randall was branded that when the Hurricanes toured Sth Africa in the early days of the super 12. Those close to the team know he wasn't responsible, but he was made the fall guy whilst a certain player any of the spotlight. A bit like when...
