    Boyd cordner

    How has this guy somehow become an automatic rep selection? I'm yet to see him do anything remotely decent at this level. Nothing plod hit ups, no ball skills and questionable defence (it was his miss on slater for the break from the kick return). Ever since he has come into first grade he...

    Shaun Johnson's Match Winner

    Clearly runs behind Simon Mannering in the movement. Shouldn't have been awarded. Didn't gain an advantage but it's illegal. I said after the tigers match winner against Canberra was taken off Brooks we'll see it happen 50 times this year and it won't get pulled up once. Referees again...

    Benji Marshall's Form

    I really don't understand all the media hype around Benjis form ATM. St.george are winning games by gritty, committed defence, not out standing half play. In only 2 of their 8 games have they scored more then 2 tries, by my count he hasn't had a try assist the last 2 games. He isn't playing...

    Souths Duty of Care

    It is clear that souths have massivley failed in their duty of care to players. Some recent examples: Round 3 2014 v tigers: Greg inglis suffers one of the worst concussions seen on a footy field. He was completely out cold, not moving and needed to be put in a neck brace, then medicabed off...

    Who is the better signing for Brisbane?

    Wayne returns and brings 3 absolutely astute buys with him

    Des Hasler

    Don't understand how this guy isn't widely considered the undisputed best coach in the league. 5 grand finals in 8 years with two different teams. Ten straight years in the finals. Remarkable record.

    Bellamy 'the referee doesn't like how we play'

    Is he cracking jokes? This should be the penalty count against your mob every game http://rugbyleagueweek.com.au/storms-bellamy-furious-loss-knights/ A ‘gutted’ Melbourne Storm coach Craig Bellamy has launched an attack on referee Ashley Klein following his team’s dramatic after...

    Injuring other players through illegal play

    In instances like tonight where Issac Luke and George Burgess chicken winged Steve Matai out of the game after 3 minutes, surely something more needs to be done? Send offs are non existent anymore. What is the deterrent for players not to deliberately injure an opposition star in a finals...

    Biggest upset ever?

    Can anybody remember a bigger upset in professional rugby league? Basically a nsw cup side against a near full strength reigning premiers...not to mention being down 24-0 Absolutely insane!

    Blake Ayshford

    Has anybody ever seen a worse defender? When the tigers released him I was fine as he had been ordinary for 2 years. However his 'performances' for the sharks this year...beyond pathetic. How can this guy look his team mates in the eye? I would seriously prefer Daniel Fitzhenry in my team then...

    James Gavet

    Didn't play nsw cup today When he went off against parra it was said he was taken off so he didn't do anymore damage and it was relatively minor. Then we were told it was 6 weeks. IF (and its a big IF) he comes bak next week it will be a 10 week injury. Sirro was needled up for the 9s, did his...

    Genuine questions RE Souths memberships

    I'm seriously not wanting to start a lol@souffs shit fight. I've wondered about this a few times and tonight it was very evident. Souths tell us they have 30,000 ticketed members. Tonight in a home game against another extremely well supported sydney team (who's members were allowed in for free)...

    Greg Bird to miss 4-6 weeks

    Charged with a grade 3 dangerous tackle Smith and skater charged but will escape suspension with an early guilty plea. Imagine the outcry if what happened to bird happened to a qlder. 'conspiracy' 'anti qld agenda' and so on.

    Josh Reynolds milking

    Twice in the last year Josh Reynolds has milked penalties beyond belief to win his team the game. Last year v manly at brookvale with his self spear tackle and today falling over himself whilst trying to get up despite Tompkins not touching him. I'm all for a bit of gamesmanship, but surely the...

    City v Country teams

    Not sure if this is the spot for it. There's always heaps of surprises and loads of players pulling out. I didn't include Hayne, Bmoz, Farah, bird, Tamou, Gallen, Lewis, tedesco, b.stewart, Fifita as they will all be playing for Australia or injured: City: 1. Hopoate 2. Tupou 3. Leulia...

    Eels v Tigers @ ANZ on Easter Monday

    There's no excuse for this game not getting 35,000+ Both teams in the top 4 after a number of disappointing year, two of Sydney's better supported teams, afternoon game on a public holiday being played close to both clubs supporter bases The NRL, parramatta, ANZ stadium and to a lesser...

    Bolters for the ANZAC test team? NZ could do a lot worse then throwing one of them off the bench!!
