    Cheaters never prosper

    Why have Waldron or any of the player agents never been sanctioned? Nowhere in the posted text does it say a player definately knew they were breaking cap rules but plenty times it says Waldron or an agent were hiding information from the players or league. I'd really like to know why nothing...

    The annual finals system debate thread

    It's gonna be close then if thats the US domestic figure. And given they have 5 times the population of England then the domestic contract in England may be more impressive. I'm also not convinced that their big tv contract is because they have playoffs - some of the regular season games...

    The annual finals system debate thread

    Why is it so massively popular in almost every country around the world if it's "a backwards f*cking joke which is boring and sh1t"? I've never said the english system is 'better' (although I personally prefer it), but you just fly off the handle sending abusive posts to anyone you think is...

    Cheaters never prosper

    I'll have to take your word for that. But it's very strange that there were tonnes of 'good luck missing the eight you cheats' and making fun of our forward pack comments before week 1 of the season, and now all of a sudden everyone expected us to do really well all along.

    Cheaters never prosper

    It's easy to say that now but before the season in the media and on here most people were saying we would really struggle this season and miss the eight. That might not have been your personal opinion but it was definately the consensus. I stand by the fact that the comments on here saying we...

    Bandwagon Warriors merchandise?

    A good tip for anyone wanting any merchandise for any team is to buy it from the UK. Your club gets the same revenue but the shops add on much less. Most of this seasons jerseys got sold standard retail price at about £45 (I guess thats roughly $70 AUD plus $10 postage) and I got a current...

    Cheaters never prosper

    Who said that? Plenty people tipped us to miss the eight, and from memory the sydney morning herald tipped us to come 12th. I am a member at AAMI park and no-one that sits around me thought we would win a gf this year.

    2 Words summing up why the Storm will lose this weekend

    He cost us more points than he scored with his knock-ons and other brain fades. I actually think he's not got enough bulk to be a good centre in the NRL. When he gets tackled he always gets flung around so violently that he often drops the ball. Can't wait to see the back of his next...

    Odds point to a Sea-Eagle win

    It's interesting to me that the odds are closer than they were at kick-off for our game against the Warriors on Saturday (storm were $1.45, warriors $2.90). So the bookies are effectively saying the Warriors have more of a chance of beating Manly on a neutral ground than they had of beating the...

    Game of the year?

    I agree. At the ground I couldn't enjoy the quality of the game as I was so nervous (and then disappointed) but when I watched the replay it was a great game - the whole second half was a real chess match where both teams knew the first ones to make a mistake would be in real trouble. Good...

    Warriors fullback Kevin Locke says Melbourne Storm hooker Cameron Smith kneed him...

    Where did I tell others what to say or think? I said I couldn't understand why people quote the daily telegraph as "proof" of the storm cap information but then the next minute call it "made up journo crap" when it suits their team. I'm not sure that's fair.

    The annual finals system debate thread

    Not sure about that. Worldwide the premier league has a much bigger deal (foreign tv rights are over £1bn alone) - but i don't know what the per person viewing figures are. Regardless, I don't think you can say the audience finds it boring when it is as watched as that. The superbowl is a tv...

    Melbourne Storm 2012 discussion

    I'm hearing lots of reports that we are either getting rid of Quinn to keep Lowrie or Lowrie to keep Quinn. I think we should be getting rid of both and clearing some cap room. Not sure what to make of Widdop. He's still very young so hard to be too judgemental on him at this point. He might...

    Warriors fullback Kevin Locke says Melbourne Storm hooker Cameron Smith kneed him...

    Its interesting that when it comes to this story the Daily Telecrap have 'just made stuff up' but when it comes to their reporting of the storm salary cap allegations every word of their articles is quoted on here as the gospel truth. I didn't like either side of the incident. I thought Cam...

    NRL and AFL tackle PM over plan to curb the use of poker machines

    This is the issue. Whatever people on here think of pokies, we are funding our sport indirectly through people ruining their and others lives. We can't call ourself a community sport if we need something that destroys communities for us to run. Sports in every country of the world are run...

    Grand Final Tickets

    If you are a member of your club you'll have a decent chance. Otherwise they put some on sale in the upcoming week i think online but it would be impossible to get 4-5 together through that, in fact its hard to get any at all.

    2 incidents from last night

    I'm a Storm fan I didn't approve of either incident. Quinns annoyed me the most, and I hope we get rid of him before next season, but Smith was also very silly risking a potential place in a GF team for nothing. I'm going to the 4 nations game at Wembley so hopefully we'll see some beef from...
