    Dragons appoint Griffin coach

    Shane Flannagan has been told his contract will not be renewed for next year. Flannagan maybe a great assistant, but from Anthony Griffin's point of view it had to happen. The amount of speculation about when Flannagan was going to take over, if the side struggled would have been endless...

    Dragons appoint Griffin coach

    I have read its been reported that Shane Flanagan will have to leave the Dragons if Anthony Griffin becomes coach. I'm not sure if that will eventuate though. The Dragons first choice was Craig Fitzgibbon but the Dragons apparently botched it. I wouldn't be surprised if they wait in the wings...

    Dragons appoint Griffin coach

    It says in Newscorp that its a two year deal, with a third year option in the clubs favor. It still won't quieten the skeptical fans suggesting Anthony Griffin will get a three year extension after one year. I agree with some of that skepticism though. This obsessions from clubs giving coaches...

    Dragons appoint Griffin coach

    I've got my suspicions the two year deal has been done so Dean Young has more time to learn the ropes under Anthony Griffin. And then potentially take over as head coach. It has been reported this has been considered a potential option. Dragons with a two year deal has all sorts of options in...

    Former League Commentators

    It was reported NINE CEO David Gyngell who played a significant role in putting the statue together wasn't impressed with Andrew Voss comments either. It was also reported two years ago that Voss coming back at Nine was out of the question despite Voss interested in coming back. There's also...

    Rumoured Signings

    Reports are Josh Papali apparently is homesick and wants to come back to Queensland to be closer to family. Titans and Broncos are monitoring this situation closely. Both teams are pretty loaded in the forward pack though, so I'm not sure the position Papali plays at Prop/Second row is the most...

    Former League Commentators

    It did happen, but I'm pretty certain it was Mark Geyer and Matthew Johns. I remember them talking about it on the now axed show The Sunday Roast. I remember Ben Ikin on Nine as a panelist (The Sunday Footy show etc), but I don't remember him ever working there as a commentator. The Sunday...

    Todd Greenberg stands down

    I see Andrew Abdo has now been named as the permanent replacement as Todd Greenberg's replacement for NRL CEO. Does anyone think the role seems to be losing prominence since Peter V'landys became commissioner? Abdo hasn't been seen much in the media since he took over from Greenberg. For all we...

    Shoutout to Kevin Walters

    Kevin Walters has now ruled out quitting coaching Queensland at this years state of origin. Regardless of whether he lands the Broncos job or not. Queensland coach Kevin Walters has confirmed he won't walk away from his State of Origin commitments this year if he's offered Brisbane's NRL gig...

    Pangai Jr to be sacked

    It been reported in the Courier Mail the Broncos have decided to give Tevita Pangai Junior one more chance. His contract won't be torn up and he will be playing at the Broncos next year. I tend to think all parties involved win out of this decision. The Broncos may have had a difficult legal...

    Rumoured Signings

    Confirmed Signings

    Its a three year extension on top of the year he has remaining. Obviously what I meant was three years should be total duration and you should not be able extend past the duration of three years you little smart-arse.

    Confirmed Signings

    They have improved under Justin Holbrook no doubt. The amount of wins they have is not a fair reflection of their improvement. I just don't think the extension needed to be so long. Its a three year extension on top of the year remaining which is in total four years. Andrew Johns has called...

    Rumoured Signings

    Anthony Griffin front runner for the Dragons job. Dean Young a rival has actually spoken highly of Griffin as they have a working relationship as assistants from the Tongan team. Apparently Craig Fitzgibbon would be Dragons first choice but he is unlikely to leave the Roosters as he has another...

    Shoutout to Kevin Walters

    I read today that if Kevin Walters does get the Broncos coaching job he is unlikely to coach Queensland this year. And then take over the Broncos job after the series. Apparently the word is Wayne Bennett and Paul Green are in the mix to replace him if he does get the Broncos job. It is...

    Daniel Vidot WWE SmackDown! Thread

    Gee not much of a WWE debut. Basically he was just red meat. You think the script writers could have come up with something for him. You have start somewhere though. Apparently Vince McMahon shook his hand and congratulated him after his debut which is rare for him to do.

    2020 R15 Sat - Titans 16-36 Raiders @ Cbus Super

    Ash Taylor has been playing well the last couple of games. I doubt he's been dropped on form. If Justin Holbrook was to drop him it would have been earlier in the season. Not now where the Titans have been showing some promise. They destroyed the Cowboys and could have won against the Sharks if...

    2020 R15 Sat - Titans 16-36 Raiders @ Cbus Super

    Interestingly Jamal Fogarty has been named as Titans captain with Kevin Proctor suspended and Jai Arrow injured.

    2020 R15 Sat - Titans 16-36 Raiders @ Cbus Super

    Are you referring to Bryce Cartwright? Cartwright has left the Titans team and has requested a release a month ago. He is now living back in Sydney last time I read.
