    Sports Betting Thread 2024

    Moved this thread from NRL 2023 thread. All sports are welcome though it's NRL mostly, if you want to post other sports you can. Please post bets before games. Anyone after the fact will be banned, or ignored. Good luck.

    NRL 2023 Betting Thread

    Let's kick it off lads. Better late than never. I'm sure we can all help each other out. The only rules: 1: You must get in and post your bet before games - nobody likes the after the fact gloating - especially without evidence. Let us join and tail the bet if it's a good one. 2: You must...

    Women's Rugby League

    When you go to NRL.com website it seems to redirect you to current women's NRL? Is there a way around this at all? It's great the game is building and women's league is getting the coverage it needs...... but for people that aren't interested in it at like myself is there a way around it? Can't...

    ESPN's guide to NRL for NFL fans

    Pretty darn accurate. Gave me a good laugh for the warriors comparison. Storm the most obvious. https://www.espn.com.au/nrl/story/_/id/28928723/nfl-fans-which-nrl-team-support

    NRL.COM's Stats team of the Decade

    I don't usually post threads, but when I do.... i'm usually half pissed, like now. Anyway, quite interesting team to be honest. Firstly, can you imagine a team with JT or Slater coming off the bench? Neither can I. Secondly, that's a solid defending back row who would get through a lot of...

    Most Improved Player this year

    It really has to be Luke Brooks. Not many people would have seen that coming, though I think a lot of credit probably goes to Cleary. Cook has been a standout at Souths i'd have to say. No real standout from Parramatta that I could see. Man, how bad are they right now? Anyway, Parra's troubles...

    "That's not a forward pass you clown!"

    Finally someone in the commentary box with the balls to tell it like it is. Respect! http://www.nzherald.co.nz/sport/news/article.cfm?c_id=4&objectid=11716410 <iframe width="100%" height="166" scrolling="no" frameborder="no" src=""></iframe>

    Have you ever switched support to another team?

    I imagine on this forum the majority would be loyal but i'm interested to hear from both those that have and reasons behind it, and those that would never dream doing so. Players sign with other teams all the time, what makes fans any different? Does it REALLY mean anything, or is it seen...

    Dugan signs with Dragons

    Just heard it on Triple M and it's also on Twitter here.

    Who's the biggest salesman in the game?

    That player that's always complaining to the ref or diving trying to earn a penalty, throwing his arms up for a slow play the ball screaming... etc etc... I think Watmough, or maybe Cam Smith in his subtle genius. Notable mentions - Scott Prince, Anasta, Ennis, Farah and Isaac Luke. Seems to...

    Worst halfback in the comp right now?

    "Due a loss" or "Peaking too early".

    Is it just a product of the overly cynical society we find ourselves in or is their some truth to it? I tend to think the "due a loss" is a rubbish theory that has no grounding in reality made by fans that ultimately don't trust their teams ability to succeed (I'll admit to using this kind of...

    Anywhere to watch NRL replays or highlights??

    The nrl.com link for game highlights and any video footage at all on that site goes directly to NRL.TV which i'm unable to view because i'm in NZ. (Loved it last year when you could use the full game replay). As of this season i've been unable to watch any highlights of games at all, which is...

    NRL 14th Man Award

    I'd like to see something like the NBA's 6th man award. Best bench player of the year. Award the hard work or game changing ability of guys like Mateo, Gillett, Segeyaro, Hinchcliffe or James Graham. Thoughts?

    One commentary team to rule them all.

    .... this is how bored I was last night.

    For all the differences people have in this forum

    ...it's great to see that the poll on the front page about 5/8 for NSW has Gidley at 1.63%. Well done.

    Staying down for the penalty.

    How can this be ruled out of the game? It's getting ridiculous. If he's hurt, fair enough, but staying down shouldn't warrant automatically going upstairs to the video ref. If it does go upstairs, and there's deemed to be little or no contact, and has caused a delay of game the penalty...

    Bagging teams in the media

    I think this is the new way teams should be coached. Forget about drills, weight training and all that old rubbish, the coach needs to invest in a marketing team to pay previous team legends to bag them in the media all week after the team loses. Look at the Tigers and Parra. Same thing...

    Eels are dead set locks this weekend

    You have all the ingredients: - Hindy blaming himself - coach under the pump - coming off a drubbing - at home They will be climbing out of trees to back the eels. Take whatever price you can and get in the collect queue

    NBA trade type scenario in NRL?

    I imagine this has already been talked about on here at some point but... Seeing as teams like The Titans and Eels are stuggling, do you think it would be good for the game or struggling teams if there was a trade window - Where teams could do straight swaps for similar players and/or multi...
