    McCallum and Mascord on NRL refereeing standards

    Hand on the ball penalties are terrible. The rule itself is stupid and has only been brought in because of all the other crap they have let players get away with. The state of the ruck and play the ball at the moment is a dog's breakfast. In every game, I reckon you could find players...

    McCallum and Mascord on NRL refereeing standards

    I agree in part. Perhaps changing the rule so that you can either kick for touch and continue the penalty count or quick tap and get another set of 6. However, the harsher the penalty, the less likely to offend. If walking off the mark, or not playing the ball with your foot could lead to...

    Interference on chasers

    The obligatory "sudden enforcement of rules that we hitherto couldn't be arsed enforcing" period has begun. Just in time for the run into the finals.

    Crappiest V ever. Do it properly so it goes to the top of the shoulders or don't do it at all.

    The numbers decline of adult men playing Rugby League

    Couldn't agree more. If you want more adults playing the game, and to keep them playing longer, the game needs to be made easier to play.

    The numbers decline of adult men playing Rugby League

    I thought soccer participation at a Junior level has outstripped League for a long time

    The numbers decline of adult men playing Rugby League

    Interesting. Should the NRL care about how many adults play, and instead focus heavily on Junior participation? You would think doubling junior numbers would naturally increase the adult numbers and those who don't play as adults will more likely remain followers of the game.

    The numbers decline of adult men playing Rugby League

    Having more options for people is always valuable, but aren't we just splintering the game? Shouldn't our main goal be more people playing 13 a side Rugby League? I wonder if any of these questions are being thought about by the Commission?

    The numbers decline of adult men playing Rugby League

    Will Rugby League need to become less intense, less brutal to survive?

    The numbers decline of adult men playing Rugby League

    Agree. We all sneer at AFL when they include AusKick in their participation numbers, yet we do the same thing. My brother coaches juniors, and it's interesting to see how things have changed compared to when he and I played back in the 80's and early 90's. Back then, all year levels played on...

    Well done Parra. Considering the crap their fans have had to put up with, they have done very well.

    Benny Elias - Does he have Brain Damage?

    I don't think it's brain trauma. He's just stupid.

    Souths need to stick with the white rabbit and numbers with black shorts. Their black jersey with black numbers is horrible.

    I think the NFL deals with this very well. For their pink ribbon round, the jerseys have very minimal changes if any. The players may all wear pink boots, the goal post pads are pink, and they have pink ribbon logo on the field. How hard would it for the NRL to organise something similar...

    2017 R13 Fri - Eels 32-24 Warriors @ ANZ

    Why did Parra take the conversion in line with the black dot instead of in line with the upright where Semi grounded the ball?

    2017 Origin I - QLD 4-28 NSW @ Suncorp

    Well done NSW. Too good tonight. 3 Weeks is a long time, with injuries suspensions etc. Very interested to see who we (Qld) pick for game 2. I doubt Thurston will be fit.
