    best centre pairing you have ever seen play footy

    I've been watching rugby league since 1968 and the best centre pairing I have seen would have to be Mal Meninga and Gene Miles.

    Golden Point

    I totally agree. The circus that is Golden Point only came about after the 2002 State of Origin series when it was one game each and a draw. This meant that Queensland were deemed to have retained the State of Origin shield because they won the 2001 series. What a screamfest we had then...

    Andrew Fifita compared to Arthur Beetson

    That's generous. I'd say more like a few more seasons.

    Unusual nicknames

    I knew twin brothers many years ago, who played a different footy code, and their nicknames were: Shark - because he wouldn't shout in a shark attack, and Crime - because crime doesn't pay. They were definitely identical twins, being cut from the same cloth.

    As usual Gus is on the money

    And let's have the big blokes playing 70-80 minutes per game instead of going off the field after 15-20 minutes because they're tired, and then coming back on after they've had a little nap. ;-)

    First Memory of Rugby League

    Friday 3rd November 1967 - Ashes Series Game 2! Sorry, but I can't post a link to the game on the Rugby League Project website. Getting up at some ungodly hour to watch the game on TV, this was when I was first captivated by rugby league, and one rugby league player in particular - Ron Coote...

    Most famous players to wear a number

    lol. Did you ever actually watch a game live and at the ground, or is your knowledge of Wally Lewis's play based on the small part of the field captured by the TV cameras?

    What happens if it's still a draw?

    I can still remember the Super League Tri-Series Final between NSW and Qld in 1997. After 100 minutes of play (80 + 20 extra), Alfie Langer asked Bill Harrigan if they should toss a coin to see who wins. The look of absolute horror on the face of a very naive Laurie Daley was priceless. I...

    Peter Jackson Appreciation

    Peter Jackson''s class was evident well before he played for Brisbane Souths. I first saw him play when he was just 18, playing in an U19's match for Runaway Bay against the Nerang Roosters on the Gold Coast. He then came off the bench in the A-grade. Many people that day knew that they had seen...
