    Refereeing was appalling

    You are of course kidding? The rulebook says players are allowed to block a player attempting to make a tackle? Haven't seen that one.

    Refereeing was appalling

    I was at the game and I've watched it again last night. I was sort of satisfied there were a few gaffs that seemed to favour Manly, but all in all it was OK. After watching on tv and being able to do the slow mo replays I'd say, off the top of my head the contentious decisions are as follows...

    Kiwis and SKD

    Actually, I hadn't realised Rapira wasn't there. What a turnaround though. The Kiwis have depth in the halves and hooker. Few years ago there was hardly a candidate. We now have two good fullback options. Its a strong, strong forward pack even without those players. I was trying to pick...

    Kiwis and SKD

    IS SKD injured? Or have the selectors just not picked him on form? The only specialist centre is Matai. Whats up there?

    NZ v Cook Islands cancelled

    Sorry, I can't believe all those players were unavailable. This is the first real stuff up under Jim Doyle's rein. He has been brilliant to date, but this harks back to the bad old days, the disorganisation and self serving leadership of the past. Cook Islands must be compensated for this...

    Just a shame that.................

    The media totally overhype things. I prefer it to be the true leaguies in on this one, rather than bandwagoners. I hope there were a few overseas visiting union people who watched that game though and they realised what real sport looks like. It would be a laugh to see the warriors knock...

    Grand Final Details - Post information and requests here

    I dunno whether the release of tickets is for club members only, but I bought tickets (with some forward vision) shortly after they went on sale on Ticketek. I set up a ticketek account, using my brothers address in Oz. Then they emailed the tickets to me in Nuu Zulund. I can't believe the...

    3-2-1 vs Tigers

    I reckon this win had the same feel about it to that 2008 storm win. I was on my feet pacing around the lounge when I realised there was a chance they could award the Inu try waiting for the video ref decision. My 10 year old was standing on the lounge hardly moving (lucky his mother had gone to...

    Well well ...

    The warriors got through Friday nights game DESPITE being totally ripped off by the refs. The Broncos got through against St George BECAUSE of a refs subjective penalty. That holddown that gave them the penalty goal was a joke. The bloke was looking at the ref, waiting to say "move". Instead...

    Gut feeling - is tonight the end of 2011 for the Warriors?

    The tigers play well. We are goneburger. Simple. They are a better, more balanced team with x factor in Benji, Farrah and every increasingly Lui, Moltzen and Lawrence. Their forwards are grafters and Ellis is class. Benji throws a couple of speculators that miss, our 50/50 plays come off and...

    "Prime Minister's" XIII

    I see they have announced a "Prime Minister's" XIII. Bad enough when you had Rudd with connotations of a connection with RL, but Julia? Ple-eeeease. They should call it an NRL selection and cut any pretense that the Prime Minister knows more than jack all about RL.

    Official team vs Tigers

    I am very scared as to what the Tigers will do to our flanks. Inu and Manu defensively are a worry. Brown was an absolute turnstyle last week and while I rate Topou, its not for his defence. What are the tigers strengths? Obviously Benji, but Benji running riot, along with Lui, throwing wide...

    vs Brisbane

    Guys, clearly that game last night was a massive choke. Remember the warriors have very young players across the field. Particularly SJ in the halfs. Brisbane are young too, but they have the leadership to steer them. Brisbane know they had to match the warriors forwards and they did. They...

    Manu for the Vulcans

    Bit too much emotion in the posts above. Well injuries might force Ivan's hand. But yes, Manu had his worst game ever. Worse than that Para game a year of two back. I'd seriously be looking at dropping him. The team has actually learnt to play without him........ But Lewis Brown was woeful...

    Pathetic Manly Fans

    Agree with Tom. I've always been embarressed by Manly. But to see that crowd last night, that was appalling. I recall, I think Warriors v Canberra at same venue 2003 had about 33,000!

    A simple equation....

    If you think about it logically, the Tigers are very good odds to get 3 from 3 on the way home, given they play Para and Titans and then are away to the Sharks. On form, you'd say they would easily win those three. The warriors play Penrith and St George away before the Cowboys at home. The...

    Riverina Schoolboys Carnival - Junee

    Rocket I played in this carnival when I was a kid and I'm 40 something now. It was big then and had been going for years in my day. I haven't been for many, many years, but it was a big day then, sounds like it might be a weekend now? You'll enjoy yourself, just watch out for the...

    Gallop talks Expansion, TV Deal, John Grant, State of Origin and AFL

    There's no bid from Wellington? Technically, there's no bid from anyone as there is nothing to bid for? What a load of rubbish. There is likely to be a bid from Wellington if and when a bid is called for. Wellington RL has been working on the bid forever. The argument about more teams...

    Gallop talks Expansion, TV Deal, John Grant, State of Origin and AFL

    I noticed he didn't include Wellington as an expansion possibility. While I think there are numerous locations that would be an advantage to RL, at least one of the expansion teams in 2015 HAS to be from outside RL territory. It HAS to be Perth, Wellington/Christchurch or PNG. Perth is a...

    coaching situations??

    If asked for an opinon (which I obviously haven't been) I'd be leaning towards a Bluey head coach appointment. But, my expectation is that he will take two or three years to get the best out of his team. Unless, they appoint Iro and Ackland (and they are happy) along side of him and he works on...
