    Which coaches are packing their offices in 2020?

    He will have three years left on his contract to be paid out though if the Broncos let him go. The other thing is he made the finals last year in his first year. Yes they lost 58 - 0 in the finals, but I honestly think if he was the coach of another club his name wouldn't be mentioned. The bar...

    Rumoured Signings

    Obviously I would like David Fifita to stay but I won't be dirty if he left for the Titans. Fifita is a hell of a compensation for Jai Arrow, but it really would have been in the best interests for all parties involved if Arrow had stayed. Arrow could have been to the Titans what Paul Harragon...

    Expansion Team Names

    Brisbane Broncos pinched the name from the Denver Broncos its been noted in the Bronco's book its not a coincidence. I've noticed some teams have taken previous defunct clubs names from other codes whether intentional or not: GWS Giants - Gold Coast Giants (NSWRL) and North Melbourne Giants...

    Brisbane Bombers Bid

    Wow. Do the Bombers now have the upper-hand? According to Peter Badel they do. Apparently they have the ear of the new ARL Commission Peter V’landys. "To understand the looming migraine around NRL expansion, and where to precisely place Brisbane’s second team to challenge the Broncos, consider...

    Indigenous All Stars reach out to bullied nine-year-old

    Well done to the Indigenous All Stars. I can't imagine the obstacles this young fella experiences every day born with achondroplasia dwarfism. I know our game can get into the headlines for the wrong reasons, but it can also touch the lives of people and make a difference as well. "IN a...

    2020 QLD Centers

    If Kalyn Ponga is healthy I think selectors will put him at fullback and Valentine Holmes on the wing. Holmes playing fullback at club level has been a demand by Holmes. Everyone under the sun knows Holmes best position is wing. I doubt the Queensland selectors will be convinced otherwise either.

    2020 QLD Centers

    Hunt actually played well at Hooker last year. I think he's wasted to be used at 14 and needs to go a legitimate utility. Hunt may be a part time hooker, but I just don't see anyone at the moment I would replace him (McCullough, Friend, Granville). Jake Turpin has the potential to though in a...

    Brisbane Bombers Bid

    Article in the Courier Mail says the Bombers have approached Craig Bellamy to be their coaching director for 2023. The article is really nothing but a bit of publicity for the Bombers. Bellamy doesn't even endorse the Bombers and only states that he supports a second team in Brisbane. But he...

    Aiden Sezer already gone??

    I'm not sure if this has been brought up, but if I was Raiders fan I wouldn't be completely comfortable with Aiden Sezer being moved on after a Grand Final appearance. Just in terms of chemistry and combinations and so forth- me thinks Ricky Stuart rushing out to sign George Williams mid-season...

    Rumoured Signings

    Ash Taylor wanted from the Broncos but their offer to the Titans is laughable. Mal Meninga says in the article he would be open to trading Taylor but his preference would be for him to stay. The Sunday Mail can reveal the Broncos are prepared to issue a lifeline for Taylor to return to Red...

    Trent Hodkinson

    I actually think his departure really harmed the Bulldogs. Trent Hodkinson and Josh Reynolds games really complimented each other. When Moses Mbye and Reynolds were paired together it led to a rapid decline for the club. In a perfect world for the Bulldogs Hodkinson would have been healthy and...

    NRL Ladder Predictor: Have your say on who'll finish where in 2019

    interesting last sunday in round 25: 2pm Tigers v Sharks @ Leichhardt Yep it's pretty much now a winner takes all match up for the final spot in the eight. Technically Sharks and Tigers can both make the top eight but Broncos would have to lose to the Bulldogs and the Sharks vs Tigers game is...

    Bulldogs embracing being Spoiler

    Full credit to Dean Pay and the Bulldogs. They could have shut up shop like the Titans at the end of season but have kept putting in and punished some teams who have been complacent with them. Playing for pride really does mean something here-circling that you have easy W against the Bulldogs...

    Nathan Brown gone

    I've read he lost the board after they lost five in a row. If they limp into the top 8 it would have made it harder to let him go in the offseason if the board think the team is not heading in the right direction.

    Nathan Brown gone

    Brennan has saddled the Titans with contracts that the club does not want. They took the recruitment off him for good reason and he is damaged goods- suggesting he is the "most likely" after he has just been recently sacked with the Titans on the bottom of the ladder is the funniest thing I've...

    Nathan Brown gone

    Mark Geyer first choice for the Knights is Phil Gould, his second choice is Anthony Griffin. Phil Gould has said he won't return to coaching because he does not want to give up his media commitments. Geyer does make the point where the Knights are at he suggests a upcoming assistant isn't what...

    Beatie has a plan

    Apparently the word is Peter Beattie will be gone by February and make way for NSW Racing chief executive Peter V'landys. If some a dissatisfied with his performance I just hope its for the right reasons. Sydney clubs getting angst about expansion and making it easier to relocate teams is not a...

    Rumoured Signings

    Reports are Titans are shopping around Ash Taylor. I have read different reports some say Taylor would be shattered to leave others report suggest both parties are open to parting company. How much Titans would have to eat up in his salary has been speculated at $500 000...

    Paul Green

    Cowboys are coming 13th and some in the media are now calling for Cowboys to make a change. Do I think anything will come of it? No the contract they gave Paul Green would make it hard for the club to swallow to pay him out especially with two years remaining on it. I think Green will be there...

    Garth Brennan and Titans part ways, Holbrook to take over in 2020

    People who liked this post did you even read the article? You would realize that a five year plan isn't that laughable with what Justin Holbrook has to contend with being forced to wait for some of these horrible contracts Garth Brennen handed out to expire. NRL.com understands that the...
