    New Zealand 2 will deal a massive blow to NZ rugby

    To be fair humanity has fallen for this stuff since inception

    Is Latrell Mitchell overrated?

    Worth noting west tigers have had a better conversion percentage that penrith for the past 2 years...

    Is Latrell Mitchell overrated?

    Sure,it's also embarrassing to compete with the Tigers for the spoon. But you could also argue that injury toll is what drove the kicking down and it's an outlier result that did nothing material in the end anyway because they were a bottom half attacking side. Heck if they were the first team...

    Is Latrell Mitchell overrated?

    Winning that 1 extra match would have given a 14th place finish. The in game kicking and organsing half, sure, but goal kicking is a nice to have. Fixing the 11th in tries is more important. Fixing the 680 points allowed is way more important. But that aside is a kicking coach going to...

    The electoral college, it's like imperial measurement. Just for democracy

    I'd rather see a return to pre covid levels of funding of QLD and NSW league below NRL level

    Is Latrell Mitchell overrated?

    Goal kicking is definitely over rated. I think souths lost one game by 2 points where both sides missed a conversion.

    The Las Vegas Thread

    I disagree. For a movie star we don't openly laud the money they make as positive. I've seen very few people say I love director X because he made a 250% irr on their movies (in fact we go the other way like a shawshank) For a politician you (hopefully) believe you also get some benefit and...

    The Las Vegas Thread

    It's always seemed odd to me that sport is the one place the consumer pretends we're the owner. The success of vegas is a bunch of us jumping on planes, paying for accommodation and watching the game. We're literally cheering Qantas and the Bellagio.

    2024 Season

    If you're team is out an you're not on the bills you'd probably cheer on the Death Star in Star Wars

    2024 Season

    I just saw it minus the horrible. Running is also skillful and athletic. It' also in the snow at Buffalo. Ask Mark Andrews what the risks are to passing a lot in that

    NRL 2025 wishlist

    But it's only "cleaner" under the definition of the additional constraint. Doing it without the constraint applying is also clean. It's an unimportant expression of control. Has there ever been a person lauded for their play of ball in the historyof the game out side of pure speed?

    NRL 2025 wishlist

    How does an extra process clean it up? Doesn't it give more upside to knocking a player "innocently" of course. And normally everyone is complaining about the ruck being slowed down by the defense. Feels like it just gives more benefit to defensive ruck shenanigans

    Sam Darnold's deal with the devil was clearly for just 16 games

    NRL 2025 wishlist

    This is one I've never particularly understood as an old bug bear. What does playing it with the foot add to the game vs stepping over it?

    How petty is Jerry Jones. Denies his coach an interview for another job... then fires him.

    Is Latrell Mitchell overrated?

    The question though really depends on the "rating" going back three years yep. Now I think his flaws are so well known and focused on it's a chance he's now under rated. He's a mecurial attacking play maker who can do things the rest of the comp can't but who doesn't like the little things and...

    Is Latrell Mitchell overrated?

    Given souths missed the finals during both Smith years its hard to say he was a worse use of the money

    All good, don't want to yuck your yum. I thought the balance of offence was refreshing but each to their own
