    Timekeeping in the spotlight after 79 minute match

    What about the other 78 minutes that the ref felt the need to try and keep Souths in the game? That first half penalty count was ridiculous, especially given the play from both sides. I don't know how on earth a 14 point better team can be down in the penalties 7-2. If the penalty count was...

    Timekeeping in the spotlight after 79 minute match

    What no apologies for Badgers inept performance? Slowing the game to a grinding halt every scrum, or incredibly lop-sided penalty count to the losing side even though they were laying all over the play all day? That is one of the worst officiating performances I've seen in many years, in all...

    Richo on Souths?

    Tigers..........the reality

    I couldn't care less about Balmain I don't follow the tigers. That being said, it's quite funny that you as a souths fan are having a go at Balmain both as a location and a team. When you've got the worst football team in the comp, a management in shambles, and your homebase is...

    Rugby League 11-a-side, Better game?

    You insulted "Eels dude" for expressing his views, simply because his were different to you. Hypocritical much? Everyone has disagreed on the 11 man idea has expressed very similar reasoning. It is up to you whether or not to take it on board or now. I can tell you right now though, reducing...

    08 :: R11 Sat :: Rabbitohs 10 Storm 15 @ Bluetongue

    Melbourne by 50 instead of Melbourne by 60 then.

    08 :: R11 Sun :: Warriors 12 Roosters 38 @ Mt Smart

    This match worries me a little. We should win easily, but warriors are a different side at home, and if Price does manage a return, then who knows. He knows how to lift that side. It'll be a close one Roosters by 6.

    08 :: R11 Fri :: Sea Eagles 18 Dragons 20 @ Brookvale

    Heard that on the radio this morning as well. The way Josh Morris has played the last few weeks, he may be easily covered. It'll still be a huge matchup. This game will be won with the forward packs though IMO. If the dragons allow the manly pack to get a roll on, then the silvertails will...

    Manly sign Bailey from the Knights

    No chance in hell he's worth 165k/year, unless it's performance based. From what I've seen of him, looks like he could be a solid first grader at best, or turn out to be a dud. Given he's around 25 or so, the latter is probably a bigger chance.

    An idea for SOO, that will change the game!!!

    Errr he was born and raised in NSW, played in both NSW(school) and QLD(Melbournes feeder) at age 16. Then moved on to the storm. I would hardly class him as a victorian.

    HAC: Souths' survival at risk

    Where are the next 2 points that are easier to get than from the bye going to come from now? Even as a Roosters supporter, I felt kind of sorry for them over the years, but ever since PHaCwit and Crowe took over, their fanbase have become a bunch of complacent twats, I hope they go into...

    Rugby League 11-a-side, Better game?

    No I'm saying the NRL should stay as it is. It has a perfect balance of defense and attack at the moment. You change it to 15 and teams won't score. Change it to 11 and teams will score too easily. That is unless you enjoy seeing teams getting beaten 70-40. Are you incapable of reading posts...

    Rugby League 11-a-side, Better game?

    Did you not read the rest of my post? 11 man sides would de-skill the game even further. Think of it this way, if you're a playmaker, on a 50m wide football field. Would you think it's easier to beat 10 guys, or 15? To be the 10 a side, you only may need to look at the guy next to you to get...

    Rugby League 11-a-side, Better game?

    Err 11 a side won't make halves be anymore creative. It'll make defensive lines easier to break not only on the fringes but in the middle. More players you have on the field = more need for 2nd phase play and better halves to get the ball out wide quickly to capitalise on overlaps. Less...

    08 :: Origin 1 :: NSW 18 QLD 10 @ ANZ

    Bird wouldn't have even been in my top 5. Gasnier, Quinn, Cooper, Wallace, Buderus all had great games. I personally would have picked Quinn, he was brilliant. Him and Cooper down that left side were unstoppable in attack and defence.

    Are the people at sportstab idiots?

    I'm a fully blown moron because I disagree that the tigers are a top 4 side? Do you disagree with me that they have one of the worst defensive lines in the game? Would you disagree with me that adding both Head and Benji into that line is also more likely to yield more points for your...

    Are the people at sportstab idiots?

    Even with all those players there... They are not a top 4 side. Do you have trouble reading posts, or do you do it on purpose? Head and Benji are a crucial issue in regards to your defence. I've re-quoted myself so that I won't cover the same ground again and again. I don't need to go and...

    Stuart slams 'whinging' coaches

    Yet the average age of the Dragons backline was younger. Yet the Storm still had more representative players lining up in their side. (Lima, Smith, Kaufusi, Cronk to Ryles, Stanley, Nightingale) Yet the storm had an Australian halfback guiding around the side and a 250 game veteran on the wing...
