    Maloney's hit on Hayne

    even without the head high contact, its still a jumping elbow on a player who doesnt have the ball. hardly a legal shot.

    Maloney's hit on Hayne

    Have I missed something about this hit? I thought it was one of the worst things i've seen in a game of league in a fair while, yet he only gets put on report, and there doesnt seem to be a big fuss being made about it by anyone. Even Hayne has said in the paper it was unfortunate and just bad...

    Should the NRL introduce a Franchise Tag?

    if a player is off contract, how can you make it so they can't leave? if we can't have a draft for legal reasons then i'm sure they will poke holes through this.

    Minor Premiership

    The panthers are only on 34 points. they beat the tigers to second on differential, and still a game behind the dragons.

    Send Offs in general

    That's the sort of info I was after. Out of curiousity how do refs get taught that? As i said there is no way they could infer all that out of the rule book, so is it taught in referee training or something like that? Also, I can understand that intent would be hard to find in a...

    Send Offs in general

    I dont want to start a thread about Civoniceva, Stewart or anyone else in particular here, I just want some clarification on the send off rule. After the call tonight I decided to have a look at the rules and they are about as clear as mud. All I could take from them is that if a player is...

    Channel 9 commentary & Sam Burgess

    id rather them go on about how good someone is, especially when they are talking about a good player, than listen to gould complain about the state of the game for two hours. i dont have a problem with critical analysis, but how many journalistic opportunities does he get to do that? dont force...

    Bring Back The Quick Restart!!!!!!!

    I think they should be able to take the restart as soon as they are ready on marks in goal, provided the person who catches the ball is the one that takes the tap. It's way too big an advantage if you expect the team with the ball to wholeheartedly attack a kick, then have to turn around 30m...

    Rumoured Signings - 2011/12

    He should be a 2nd off the bench prop at best at the Storm. I'd take Norrie, Tolman and Lima over him any day.

    60min games

    Every team may have 12 home and 12 away, but the teams in the non Sydney pool are traveling 1000km+ in every direction to play their away pool matches, while Sydney teams get to drive to the ground on the day. Newcastle may get to play CC as a bit of relief, but if the CC was added to the comp...

    60min games

    I really hate this idea. Especially because of they way you have broken up the teams. I understand you were probably thinking of letting traditional rivalries have 2 match ups a season, but what you have really done is made every non-Sydney team travel halfway around Australia every second week...

    Radical NRL salary cap changes to ward off rivals

    I understand the idea, but I don't see what stops clubs from moving money around to the extent where the definition between the cap and the concession is pointless. If a superstar was valued at $450k, I doubt clubs would pay him $500k. More likely they would give him $400k, add an extra $50k...

    Radical NRL salary cap changes to ward off rivals

    is it just me, or does being able to pay $300k to marquee players outside of the 4.1mil cap no different to having a 4.4mil cap?

    John Sutton? Nah, f**k him...he's not an 'origin player'

    imagine if the selectors picked pearce at half and sutton/campese at five eighth. these boards would go dead cause nobody would have anything to complain about. of course, i dont think thats likely...

    Your NSW Game 2 Lineups?

    Anyone picking a team without Kimmorley wasn't watching the game tonight. He was about our only player who was not only trying, but actually doing well too. He also amps up his defence for origin, not the leaky sieve he was notorious for being anymore. The team I would pick for game2I: 1...

    Is State of Origin hindering NRL expansion?

    i think it would be cool to see a 3rd side introduced as someone said like a barbarians concept. it would mean that kiwis, the english and players being brought up in states other than nsw and qld could play origin. have a 3 game round robin and a final. gives broadcasters an extra game while...

    Official team V Souths

    out of curiousity, does anyone know who will kick on the weekend? i'd imagine naiqama could take the job again now that he should start for mad dog, but dureau did well against the panthers. just hoping to figure it out for my fantasy team.
