    We have 2 players in the Kangaroo backline this week..

    I thought Campo looked pretty good up until the injury. He had a couple of good touches and was involved in Australia's second try with the wrap-around.

    Future Png Team In The Nrl

    Where would they train? Airways? They have a nice squash court and swimming pool, but I don't think their weights are up to NRL training standards. Hypothetically, this private investor spends $200m on a stadium, and then keeps pouring the money in to maintain the thing (the government won't...

    Future Png Team In The Nrl

    Why don't people understand? The PNG team isn't just an issue of money! You could have Bill Gates funding the team, but how would they guarantee safety of participants? How could they justify this at the expense of education, health and infrastructure? I vote No. I would LIKE for them to...

    Raiders Trial Games

    Meakin Park is Souths Logan Magpie's home ground - situated in Slacks Creek, Queensland. I haven't been there myself but I plan to get to that one.

    Fiji want team in the NRL

    Hahah, first PNG, now Fiji - who's next? Nauru?

    I will go to both Meakin Park and Redcliffe.

    PNG bid for NRL

    It is funny how people perceive things that they read in the press. Having recently been in Port Moresby, though, I feel a lot safer in Sydney than Port Moresby.

    PNG bid for NRL

    No. There is already a pay TV network in Port Moresby. They don't have Fox Sports, though. They can barely build a police station and protect it.

    PNG bid for NRL

    They need a LOT of things before they need a "national stadium". Hospitals, schools, roads, etc... A lot of the problems in Port Moresby stem from the fact that your tribe comes first, and province second and then you might have some time for your country later. Port Moresby is a melting...

    PNG bid for NRL

    I admire your optimism, and I wish it could happen, but I just can't see how it can now. Our Government already give PNG over A$1m a day.

    PNG bid for NRL

    Exactly. I don't disagree with PNG having a team because of any Sydney-centric or selfish view-point, I just can't see how it could work in the current security situation in Port Moresby. I speak about this having a family member working there and having visited the place myself just two weeks...

    PNG bid for NRL

    Yes. They at least have some sort of maintenance plan, even if they aren't the best facilities. If Leichardt was transplanted in Port Moresby, I'm not entirely sure how long it would last.

    PNG bid for NRL

    I take it you haven't personally been to Port Moresby? The idea of building an NRL standard stadium in Port Moresby is ludicrous. Plus organising security for a once off visit is a little easier than an on-going concern, particularly if players have to live and train there.

    I have been an idiot: Carney

    Oh, I agree. What is more difficult to call is what is dependence. If someone feels like they are sociable when they are drunk, is that a dependence? Is being sociable a necessity? I binge drink myself. I am a more sociable person once I've been drinking. I don't feel that being sociable is...

    No doubt. Binge drinking is very common, which doesn't necessarily make it good or right. Actually, that is the definition of alcoholism. Dependence, whether it be physical or mental.

    Toyota Cup 08

    For once, I hope 9 will be broadcasting it. I will be in Port Moresby and there aren't any Fox channels available.
