    Origin Predictions

    Origin 1 Jake Trbojevic only played like 29 minutes total and made like 50m and D Saf played 50 mins for close to 150m and somehow Jake got all the credit for 'setting the platform'.

    Origin Predictions

    1.D Saf to top the run metres for NSW forwards 2.Turbo to score a try from jumping over Reece Walsh from a centre field bomb 3.QLD to once again dominate the 6 again calls as the refs try their hardest to make this a competitive game

    Match Discussion: Round 15 vs Warriors @ McDonald Jones Stadium

    Just on the game, watched another replay this morning without the hindrance of being inebriated and my word Clifford has certainly added something with his kicking game, like we're actually getting repeat sets and his bombs the other day, I haven't seen a knights half do that to an opposing...

    Rumoured Targets 3

    Nene has had some mental health issues and isn't someone who should be our starting winger round 1 next year but as a minimum wage depth option I think he'd be handy, as you mentioned he was a weapon a few years ago, it's not like he's 32 and over the hill, he's 27

    Maroons team for the successful 2021 Origin series

    I'm actually worried Paul Green will destroy Reece Walsh's rep career. It's obvious he has ability but he's nowhere near ready, he's started 5 games in his career and only won 2 of them. Nathan Brown rightly pointed out that everyone is banging on about the good things Walsh does it completely...

    2021 R15 Sun - Gold Coast 24-56 Manly @ Cbus Super

    Ok Des game is in the bag, time to put Tommy Turbo on ice now

    2021 R15 Sun - Gold Coast 24-56 Manly @ Cbus Super

    I would have thought having the ball pinned between forearm and bicep would constitute maintaining control

    Moved to Canberra when he was 8 and played for nsw under 18s

    Match Discussion: Round 15 vs Warriors @ McDonald Jones Stadium

    In my opinion we still haven't adapted to the new rules and quicker game. Before last year the long held belief was you had to go through teams because defensive lines were usually quite set but with the speed of the game and PTBs I think you can have alot of success shifting the ball early and...

    Match Discussion: Round 15 vs Warriors @ McDonald Jones Stadium

    It's simple things like players in motion, players standing deep enough, you compare their shape to us where all 13 players are all bunched up the first 2 or 3 tackles of any given set for us which allows the defence tee off on the ball carrier.

    Rumoured Targets 3

    Had pretty bad injury in 2019 at the cowboys, had a few off field issues and decided to take some time away from the game, signed with Cronulla midway through last year, played 2 games in 1st grade and has been in NSW cup this year. I think we could probably get him for not much more than...

    Match Discussion: Round 15 vs Warriors @ McDonald Jones Stadium

    I'm not sure if anyone watched the storm game tonight but their attack is absolutely ridiculous, the way they move the ball around is effortless. From what I understand AOB was in charge or attack when he was at the storm, he was responsible for that arm wrestle, grinding style that the storm...

    Rumoured Targets 3

    Just way too injury prone unfortunately and seems to really struggle with rehab, was same story in 2019. As far as cheapish wingers go my preferences would be 1.Murray Taulagi 2.Nene MacDonald 3.Jorge Taufua

    Match Discussion: Round 15 vs Warriors @ McDonald Jones Stadium

    Pearce needs to realise Clifford has a far superior kicking game and do the mature and defer to Clifford

    Rumoured Targets 3

    But do you not think it's unrealistic to expect one player in Finucane will magically make everyone else hold on to the ball? I think half the reason we do implode is because we make every hard for ourselves, we flat out refuse to spread the ball so metres are much harder to come by and alot of...

    Why on earth is Pearce doing the kicking

    Refereeing The Magic Round sin bin directive

    Pretty sure when they floated the bunker idea that was supposed to be one of the main selling points, now the bunker is just a rebranded video ref with the same incompetent officials as before

    The High Tackle Crackdown

    The inconsistency of the crackdown is beyond ridiculous, the explanation given tonight be Ashley Klein was confusing. Firstly the NRL clearly stated the role of refs was different from that of MRC in that they weren't to take circumstances and mitigation into consideration then tonight you had...

    Rumoured Targets 3

    I don't buy this 'leadership' thing, I mean firstly Klemmer was supposed to be our forward leader, then Frizzell, now Saifiti and Barnett is also in the leadership group. Look at our losses, it's not like we're getting killed up the middle, it's the fringes where we're getting absolutely...

    Rumoured Targets 3

    A few ago yes but he's 30 already and fairly injury prone and doesn't exactly offer much point of difference to what we already have. In my opinion we need a forward with either footwork, ball playing ability or a genuine offload and Finucane doesn't really meet any of those briefs
