    Limit players to 20 round robin games?

    i could argue pro or con on this idea but as ive thought in the past that this could possibly offer some good i'll go with the pro. firstly it has little to do with improving international footy as its sole purpose. i'd have this thread in the nrl section, talking about 20+ teams, home & away...

    Tracy Grimshaw interview...fair?

    if matt's version of things is correct, then i think the players involved showed a great deal of respect to the women. i mean, if she had to actually ask players to f*&k her then obviously they were being polite & waiting patiently for her to invite them 'in'.

    Should the 2013 WC be in America?

    Wow im blown away that I actually have to explain this. Do you really think id be worried about what US union fans think of a sub standard WC game of league? And how the hell you got that idea out of my post, only you & god would know. Simply put I am worried about what the general US sports...

    Should the 2013 WC be in America?

    I originally was 100 % behind this idea until one thing about last year’s WC caused me some concern. The standard of footy played. Sure the games were entertaining to us league fans who weren’t expecting anything special as far as high quality games go, but could this have a bad effect on...

    Stopping the clock at the scrum.

    its amazing your the only person who ive heard of that realises this is a stupid rule change. the only time wingers pack in scrums is when a team is behind. i assume we all agree on that. the rule was brought in to stop the team leading from wasting time. this year the forwards will have to...

    NRL to trial 11-a-side rugby league

    Firstly good on them for trialling something, certainly can't hurt. Though as mentioned the 20's can't tackle as it is, so the ten needs to be shortened. Secondly it seems i have a different view to most on whats makes a good game. To me it has very little to do with how many tries are scored...

    Points Cap Instead of Salary Cap

    i think something like this should be looked into but points should be allocated by clubs based on how many different clubs want a particular player. very roughly & with very little thought.... at the start every club summits thier top 10 teams, this enables the top x amount of players to be...

    Stats Thread

    As i read at a kindergarden level (due to an undiagnosed case of dsylexai) i stupidly thought that article was about discrepancies between the two & maybe interpretations (rather than errors) cause this. But now ive seen your high level of intellect prove why Ink was so stupid for posting a...

    Stats Thread

    i was going to post how payne's stats shape up pretty well compared to how it looks on the field, but maybe this article explains it. & on this article, they could of at least watched one of those games & told us thier count on some of those stats for curiosities sake.

    Dominance of Post WWII - 70s era

    i wonder if bad players made good players look even better in the past. i remember watching an old GF on fox & either the half or hooker could not pass both ways. he had to turn his back to the defence if he wanted to pass to his weak side. you would have to go to the u12's to see that these...

    TV Rights: Soccer 'worth more than league'

    the problem that ive heard is that the very players we need in our game (smaller skillful players) are leaving b/c they are getting smashed by the big boys. plus they get to use thier skills in those other sports. while this article may be a load of crap ("It's of high appeal and it is a...

    Salary Cap ?

    I remember Noyce a couple of years ago saying something along the lines of how the Tigers will play by the rules regarding the cap, basically hinting that there are plenty of clubs cheating. I would say he is correct. It's probably tough to keep it under & that's why we are over at times...

    Video ref

    If you think that things become instantly black & white just b/c he has a replay to watch then you have been deluded. I shouldn't have to explain this any further as it is a very simple concept to understand. Things happen in this world that you can't tell what really happened or appear...

    Video ref

    why cant those who are happy with onfield refs making errors have the same view towards the VR. that's how i look at it. it's just a part of footy. ref's make mistakes & that includes VR's. In fact the large amount of bad calls that are made makes the VR its own little drama, as you just...

    NRL too 'mundane' for new English coach

    i haven't seen a lot of ESL but when i have it looks like the fields are smaller than melb's & its wet, muddy & very slippery preventing any good expansive running of the ball. my team provides me with good entertainment. am i overly biased or are the tigers still not getting any credit for...

    Brett White - How many weeks?

    you can land a good punch with a folded in forearm - it's called a roundhouse & the elbow will always follow thru. & thats what happened here. i agree with 99's observations. The camera angle (ive only seen the one angle) & the missed punch (which allows the elbow to come closer to his...

    top 5 games

    for me the only game ive always thought about and hoped to see again (& show to non league fans) was an origin about 5 years ago (possibly game 1, '03). & i wasn't the only one who thought highly of it, as i remember the next day wallabies coach eddie jones was asked in a press conference if...

    2008 Ladder... have a go

    whats the deal with people in here not being able to consider someone's prediction as a possibility, whether it be for the spoon or the top 4? the only prediction which id forgive someone for questioning is the premiers, as there are a couple of teams that probably can't win it, even if things...
