    Top 8

    But it is good finals prep - obviously depending on how each team is traveling at the time. The dogs are an enigma. They may do enough dumb shit not to be in the 8 come the end of the regular season.

    Charge-downs off a field goal attempt

    Hmmmmm I think maybe some kind of metre based criteria would help, not unlike the 40-20 attempts. Shoot for a FG inside the 30 and you don't get it back if its blocked. Shoot from within the 30 and 40 = get one more tackle if it is blocked and returned to you. Shoot from outside the 40 and if...

    I thought the roosters didn't take dives for penalties

    I don't think JWH is the sharpest tool in the shed.

    Do you want him out there if he does? Great athlete , but poorly disciplined and crap hands when it matters.

    Alex McKinnon possibly Quadriplegic - Mclean guilty of dangerous throw - 7 weeks

    Crackers was partially helped by people already taking guilty pleas at an earlier level and then partially hindered by his own income out of football. It is a weird situation that one, of course Crackers then got in shit for clearing a whole heap of land he shouldn't have.

    Does anyone still not want to sack Flanno?

    I will calmly tell you what he offers........... NOTHING!!!

    Alex McKinnon possibly Quadriplegic - Mclean guilty of dangerous throw - 7 weeks

    Then again a law firm may take this on for nix to enhance their reputation within circles. Then again any law firm offering their services for nix may not be very good..........

    Alex McKinnon possibly Quadriplegic - Mclean guilty of dangerous throw - 7 weeks

    If I want the opinion of useless furniture I will ask the f**king ottoman. Can you honestly put your hand on your heart and say they (Melbourne) have not been responsible for most of the crap? What happened to Alex was a tragedy - and an inevitability the way Melbourne have been playing for the...

    Alex McKinnon possibly Quadriplegic - Mclean guilty of dangerous throw - 7 weeks

    Absolutely not. A few edicts, a few short courses and a few announcements DO NOT constitute removing all potential. Lets go through the hierarchy of control: Elimination = well they sure as hell didn't do that Substitution = suggested alternatives, but once again the tackle kept happening...

    Alex McKinnon possibly Quadriplegic - Mclean guilty of dangerous throw - 7 weeks

    I think he is within his rights to sue. I don't want to start a shitfight again but honestly the storm had been using grubby tactics for near a decade and the fact it happened against them came as no surprise to me. This reminds me of a time a gent I worked with died, motorcycle accident. Yes...

    Cameron Smith-Eels fan incident: How many weeks?

    Looking at him that is a catch that has been made many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many...

    Cameron Smith-Eels fan incident: How many weeks?

    It is a pretty big fan.................... hard to miss actually.........................if he said he wasn't intentionally aiming I would probably believe him, and I hate Smith.

    Shaun Johnson's Match Winner

    f**k that bell and the referee - who is the official source of time and managed to f**k it up - for eternity. I said after Saints beat Storm later that year "its the second time they have beaten them in an 80 minute contest this year - only this time they got the points for it"

    When is a bomb defused?

    As an aside, did Lawrence knock the ball into the Easts player during the dalliance in the air?

    When is a bomb defused?

    They kind of do lie a bit. Depending on the explosive and initiation method snapping the wire may set it off, det cord shouldn't go off, but a dedicated "detonator" (non electric) running into a "booster" may do so if you reef the line too quickly. Then again I have seen "boosters" that are said...

    When is a bomb defused?

    It looked as if - during the in air contest - Lawrence actually had the ball clutched to HIS chest as opposed to the Roosters player. I would say try but I don't support either team. Given the score at the time I don't think this was going to change the game.

    Five fastest players in the NRL

    GI was lightning. How much quicker would some of the other guys be if they did not carry the extra bulk required to be a footballer?

    Five fastest players in the NRL

    Ok maybe he would be the one I'd put money on. I haven't taken good enough notice of the others to form a decent opinion. Maybe it is a testament to the defensive structures of our game these days but you don't usually get to see someone get thrown a ball in their own 20 and then have no one in...
