    The biggest choke in Grand Final history?

    Biggest choke was the refs this year. Missed a clear penalty to the broncos with 40 seconds left that would have iced the game for them.

    2 South Sydney Players rushed to hospital

    Pretty sure Souths have said Tramadol was involved.

    2 South Sydney Players rushed to hospital

    If two average blokes OD'd on the same drug at the same time in the same place at 4am while on holidays then the public would just knowingly glance at each other. When it involves footy people it must be a bad dose or an accident or a bad reaction or an unfortunate addiction or the doctors fault.

    Which Grand Final combination is best for rugby league?

    Having the cows involved will exclude a big city from the promotion, although it will be Melbourne who are a second tier league town anyway and the AFL GF is the same weekend. The Cows licked Rupert's arse for a while though so the news corp papers should give them a nice run.

    There it is, last straw for refs

    Cowboys scored their second try off a forward pass last night but nobody has mentioned conspiracy or momentum or any of the words that come up when other teams lose finals after questionable calls. I can only guess that if the cows were the chooks and the sharks were the dogs then things would...

    Wests Tigers conspiracy theory

    Gotta LOL at the west tigers fan for thinking his clubs problems are all Taylor's fault.

    Jamie Lyon

    Î don't really care too much what people do and you can't tell them what to do, so skipping rep footy means nothing. Watching him play is fun, he's almost a throwback now in the era of 2nd rowers playing centre. Natural footballer.

    For those who have a Foxtel subscription...

    NRL wasn't a consideration in my household getting fox, and we don't watch FTA except for cricket and footy, so we won't get rid of it. If fox don't get NRL we'll most likely have to pay someone else for it, and we don't know how much that will be. Nine have spent their money it would seem (and...

    Rumoured Signings - 2015/2016.

    Tolman signed a four year deal two years ago didn't he? Wages have surged for top 17 players since then, particularly "marquee" type purchases. If he left now, he'd probably get a new four year deal on much better money at another club. He should be stoked.

    Ennis the niggler

    .......and the reactions Ennis gets from opponents says more about them than it does about him. He knows he is playing against plenty of apes, so he just pokes them and they lose their minds. It's like picking on the dumb kid or the vain kid in high school. When blokes spend all week lifting...

    Ennis the niggler

    Plenty of people have punched him, and he's punched plenty of people. He's also been sinbinned before too.

    Rising Rabbitohs star Kirisome Auva'a in court after bashing a woman after a wedding

    Part of the problem is Souths poor history with this stuff. When it happened and they tried to sweep it under the carpet, most fans thought "here we go again......Souths, violence, misbehaviour, they won't care". We've seen it in the past as well as recently, so we know it's not an isolated...

    If I was the Warriors boss . . .

    That's going to happen at every club, every year. Every player knows that they will aloe team mates from year to year. If they sook and perform poorly then they should go on the list too.

    The off-field issues bringing down crowds

    It's a bit unfortunate to think that attendance at a game can be impacted so much by a $2 rise or drop in the price of chips or beer. If the event you are seeing is good enough, then spending an extra $5-10 on snacks through the course of an afternoon is no problem. I'll guarantee not one...

    The off-field issues bringing down crowds

    Nine probably already feel they are getting a raw deal since the NRL took more control over the draw. What else can the NRL do? They can't take games away from them because they might not be able to sell them to anyone else. These rights must be sold at a value the market decides - they don't...

    28%

    Given the numbers we saw in the WADA leak last week, 28% of players on the elephants wouldn't be outlandish would it? If something like 30% of Olympic medalists have abnormal blood readings (wink nudge), is it unreasonable that a similar number of footy players are doing similar?

    28%

    First things first, ch9 weren't granted the right to show the game, they bought them. This isn't about giving people things and goodwill and feel good stories and crap like that. It's about silver for the NRL and product for nine. Nine don't pay $100 million a year to be the propaganda arm of...

    NRL players attitude towards domestic violence

    The question they asked was designed to get the response it got. They probably thought the % would be higher. It would be interesting to see how people in other industries would answer that question and what the general public expected the results to be. "Do you think your employer should be...

    The off-field issues bringing down crowds

    Games don't have the same value in Sydney because there are so many of them. 12 games a year at suncorp or 1300smiles makes those tickets valuable because that's all the NRL they'll get. Sydney has 90-100 games spread amongst the teams there. 15 games a month during the season. The time and...

    The Wire

    Same. Been watching bits and pieces while they've replayed it on fox the last couple of weeks and every time I turn it on there is an awesome scene.
