    In Fitzy We Trust

    Confidence down , especially Nicho having a fair idea he would be flicked for SOO2. We need an older gather the troops around type when the going gets tough, like form Storm player/referee Camshaft Smith. Opposition gets a roll on, we put away the cue into the rack.We should be used to it, since...

    Peter V'landys - New NRL/ARLC Chairman

    And a fair percentage of that crowd are roaming felines and canines on heat.

    Peter V'landys - New NRL/ARLC Chairman

    Point taken ,yes there had been inflation with crowds at times, but if my memory is correct he was aiming for 20K crowds and only now seems to be getting closer to the mark.Bear in mind when Grant took over from 2016 and working up to 2019 only averaged about 15K.So the early fudging wasn't...

    Peter V'landys - New NRL/ARLC Chairman

    Smith's rogue deal with Nine was huge as he calls it during a lonely press conference, this just enraged Murdoch( a ruthless SOB )and one who can influence elections both here and in the U.S) to the extent he held back and then knowing he needed the NRL finally negotiated. But because Murdoch...

    Fitzy's league Sledge

    Gotta say the more I see and hear Bandana Bob and his wife over the years, I get the feeling someone nicked their dummies as babies, and they have been bitter ever since. They seem to create more problems than they solve.Bandana gets it wrong 99.9% of the time.

    West Coast Pirates Bid News

    Sheedy pushed for that because of the population size ,he thought as soon as people saw the game they be be over the moon.Then they bought Folau expecting to grab the Polynesian community.Thick as planks. Perth a different story with an awareness, reasonable following(many expats & nth Poms) and...

    Rugbyleague 2050

    If I'm somehow still around my ashes would have been reconstituted.And I'll look a most unattractive man. But I'll still like to watch.

    Peter V'landys - New NRL/ARLC Chairman

    If the code is enjoying huge jump in(2023) ratings ,surge in crowds and a better product by a leader(with faults like all of us) who actually wants to promote the code ,let's get rid of him is perhaps behind your comment. You want David Smith back no doubt, go rogue young man , who meant well...

    The Game 2023 Crowd Watch

    18th club, whose next?

    Come to think of it, Perth and surrounds have too many white pointers. They do more damage than a gang of goons. I'm calling it now ,it's now out of NZ 2 / Whichswitch.

    18th club, whose next?

    That's what I was getting at. Where on earth doing you home base that team ? And why chew into the Cows's fan base? The Feds should spend money on rugby league sporting facilities in PNG ,health programs for their youngsters and anti domestic violence programs.Other infrastructure.

    2023 TV/Fox/Streaming Ratings

    Good ratings for Sunday ,good crowd .If you're a Shark's fan a death of a thousand cuts.

    18th club, whose next?

    I'm starting to think it will narrow down to two. Out of Perth and NZ 2. Population, economy, viewer interest in Australia and increased revenue for Tv channels. The issue I have with PNG (although the Feds may have the pulling power due to monetary outlay) is where the team will be domiciled...

    New Zealand 2 will deal a massive blow to NZ rugby

    Guys think it's bleeding time to cut the nasty bits, sure argue ,troll for fun and even stir the custard. That's my rant FWIW.

    Moylan, Finucane, Graham

    Been arguing regularly with a mate ,he reckons Moylan should not be selected anytime ,and I've always backed Moylan. After Sunday's debacle I'm prepared to give myself a public stiff uppercut Basil Fawlty style. Moylan's age has wearied him, Graham tries hard but the engine at times just won't...

    Next TV deal discussion 2028 -

    Whilst you continue to crap on about the NRL deal, you will get the response you invited.You consider yourself the guru on the AFL and NRL(not disclosed) deals and bitch on about the NRL one regularly. BTW you attempted to lecture me on averaging, when in fact I attempt to do this when buying...
