    Peter V'landys - New NRL/ARLC Chairman

    Don't forget the Super League war that RL had to contend with that AFL didn't......and the ongoing part ownership of Newscorp with reduced broadcasting rights for years. That was the biggest impediment of all

    What's good on Netflix?

    I have one for those guys that dont mind watching a subtitled show. Its called the Arthdal Chronicles. Sort of the Korean version of Game of Thrones. Its a long season, 18 1.5hr episodes, but I got hooked. Give it at least 4 episodes.

    Rumoured / Confirmed Signings

    Metcalf was a gun half at 17, as was Trindall, as was Salmon, as was Deardan, as was Hutchinson and the list goes on and on and on. Relying on the gun 17 year old to come through and be your marquee player or even just a solid 1st grader is fraught with danger.

    The Deuce

    This show is back for a second season and if you didn't see the first season do yourself a favour and watch it. One of the best shows, if not the best, on TV last year. The guy that created it was the guy behind The Wire and this show is just as gritty, with a brilliant collage of misfit and...

    Townsville is a shithole. How come all of a sudden everyone wants to live there. You never saw Tallis or Thaiday wanting to rush back.

    Fiji NSWRL Bid Team Facebook

    It should be the NSWRL financing it. They get a heap of money from SOO each year and have nothing to spend it on except Centres o Excellences for rep teams who are only together for a few weeks and fat cat lunches. This tier should have been removed when the NRL was formed but the blazer...

    Rugby League Misrepresented in the Media

    I have one for you. Luke Foley was on the news yesterday bagging the Libs for chasing the 10 World Cups in 10 years. He said "We just had the RLWC and Sydney didn't host a game". Wrong Luke, Sydney hosted two Mens games, and all of the Women's games. Do you think any reporter had the savy to...

    fumbleball ambassadors

    How is this for controlling the media. I saw on the Foxsports page this afternoon that some ex AFL player is in a sex tape. The story didn't name him but says its being shown all over social media. So I get my phone and use the voice command on Google "Video of AFL player in sex tape" thinking...

    Stranger Things

    Has anyone watched this show? Ive just binged the first two seasons and really liked it. The acting in it is pretty good particularly the litte girl, it has a touch of the Goonies and anyone who grew up in the era will love the 80s theme.

    Favourite villains

    Two from Eastwood flicks have to be right up there. Scorpio from the original Dirty Harry. And the Chick from Play Misty for me. Both excellent acting performances and A grade psychotics. One noteable absence worth mentioning....Javier Bardem's character in No Country for Old Men. He has to...

    Sport Accord recognition

    If we all post it on our individual facebook pages as I have and ask our mates to sign it, numbers will swell quickly

    Sport Accord recognition

    Where are the players wearing their hats with "We want recognition" at every RLWC press conference, like they did with the RLPA hats during state of origin. Oh that's right......nothing in it for them this time. Don't worry about for the good of the game.

    Game of Thrones II

    The gift for Cersei, has to be Tyrian. I'm expecting some dwarf kidnapping from Dragonstone in the dead of night.

    Phil Rothfield

    ....and absolutely no discussion at all now of the big picture issues, expanding the teams, expanding the game, expanding revenue sources, etc, etc. Its pathetic how the media not only undermine the game at every turn, but also control the agenda. Until we have a Commission brave enough...

    Offsiders

    My point is everything in the first example was rugby league atrocity, rugby league thuggery, etc Whilst in the second its the generic 'footballer' no mention of the code and particularly no mention of AFL. Any casual observer reading or listening would think it was two soccer teams and...

    Offsiders

    Slightly related.....two incidents this weekend. A brawl at a junior rugby league match where 4 people were arrested was plastered all over the media yesterday and today. Two AFL teams have a brawl at a pub after the match in Victoria which tragically results in a death and in every...

    Todd Greenberg Appointed NRL CEO

    No I don't believe so HITD. From all reports the money on offer was $1m that is why a lot of people approached turned it down instantly. Todd is our budget option but an option taken by reactionary Grant again trying to appease the 'too many fat cat salaries' hysteria from the Murdoch and...

    Todd Greenberg Appointed NRL CEO

    Why would we attract anyone competent when we were only offering $1m salary? That's 50% less than Smith was on and our TV rvenue will nearly double from the end of next year. We should have been offering $3m a year and then we would have seen who would have taken the job. Unfortunately Smith...
