    $1million forwards, are they worth it?

    I remember Terry Kennedy said a couple of years on the Footy Show. That he heard on the grapevine there was an opt out for Jason Taumalolo here, and there was an opt out clause for the Cowboys there. He suggested it wasn't a 10 year contract that either party was completely locked into on the...

    2021 R1 Thu - Melbourne 26-18 South Sydney @ AAMI

    It hasn't been mentioned but Jai Arrow coming off the bench. Considering he was a big signing for Souths its interesting. I presume this maybe just Bennett slowly working him into the side. Because he wouldn't be coming off the bench at the Titans.

    Opinion Joseph Suaalii is being set up to fail

    This is it in a nutshell why the exemption is a dumb idea and sets a precedent. Ben Ikin and Josh Hannay suffered terrible injuries during their careers. There was a view because they played first grade football too young and there body's hadn't completely developed which was the cause from it.

    Tim Gilbert...

    Its funny but I saw him today presenting a news report for coverage of the WA state election on a clip on the Sky news website. I at first was wondering if it was him because it was a different medium to what I was used to seeing him. But I looked him up and sure enough it was him as he moved to...

    PNG 2025...

    Its good for something to aim for, and good luck to them. Realistically though it's probably 20 years away from being a remote possibility. I still think longshot bids of Adelaide, Central Queensland, and Wellington would be looked at by the NRL before a team in PNG. A secound team in Brisbane...

    Rumoured Signings

    It's kind of old news now but Cam McInnes has ruptured his ACL and will be out for the year. Interestingly, Andrew McCullogh was apparently looking good from reports at the Broncos preseason. So much so that Kevin Walters wanted to keep McCullogh at the Broncos and start him at hooker...

    Rabs lives on

    Yep. I'm a big Andrew Voss fan, and he should be the successor to Ray Warren. It could happen if Nine wanted to as Voss comes off contract from Fox at the end of 2021. I've read in the past that Voss wants to return to Nine. Unfortunately it probably won't happen from their previous fallout...

    Next Queensland coach?

    It's Paul Green who has been appointed Queensland coach. I know some may not be surprised but apparently the board was split between Green and Billy Slater. Green has as a two year deal with the second year in the QRL's favor. Slater apparently if to be appointed wanted a deal for at least...

    Rumoured Signings

    A big NO from me. Latrell is a great talent, but he hasn't produced enough at fullback to give him big money. I will concede he was starting to come in good form before the injury though. The article also suggest '12 other teams' are interested. And his management is giving South's the run...

    Easts Tigers Enter Expansion Race

    You make some good points. I still feel though sometimes if the name is simpler, the better, as it's easier for marketing. Tasmania had the option of choosing the Tridents and those chose the Jackjumpers instead.

    Easts Tigers Enter Expansion Race

    That's a shame if they win. The other option is picking a name so obscure that no one feels any connection to it. As the new NBL team the Tasmania JackJumpers found.

    Easts Tigers Enter Expansion Race

    Why? Is that your opinion or have you heard something? The only FireHawks sports franchise I found was an American indoor football team called the Fort Wayne FireHawks and they folded in 2011.

    Easts Tigers Enter Expansion Race

    The Titans didn't considered the name the stingrays but they did consider the name the 'Stingers'. It came down to three the Titans, Stingers, and the Pirates. The vote came in and the most popular was the Titans. Agreed about the name Bombers. Apparently David Gallop didn't like the name...

    Easts Tigers Enter Expansion Race

    It been reported that Shane Richardson is working on Easts bid. It certainly can't hurt having someone such as Richardson capability on your side. Although Richardson did receive some flack from his departure with Souths you can't deny he has alot experience in Rugby league administration. I...

    Rumoured Signings

    There is a rumor going around that Shane Flanagan is in line to replace Brad Arthurs at the Eels. The chief executive at the Eels called Newscorp and said they have not approached any other coaches. That's fine, but it won't likely put the issue to bed. Flanagan won't be able to coach until...

    Rumoured Signings

    Apparently had resigned to the fact his playing days were over and called Wayne Bennett about a coaching job and was saved at the death. Benji Marshall has to lower expectations of playing time though, if he thinks not playing first grade warrants shopping himself around to opposing clubs then...

    News Former Maroons winger Brett Dallas faces 25 years jail

    'Catch me if you can' is what Brett Dallas said when running away to score this try against the Blues in 1995. Its unfortunate what's happen to him. I hope he can sort his life out.

    Next Queensland coach?

    Matthew Elliott was hired as an assistant coach for the Dragons in September. So he isn't likely in contention anytime soon.
