    Dragons statement: Player breach

    Are you serious? Every other player at the club, every official, anyone involved at the club were put in danger. And then everyone at every other club, and the entire comp. Or are you of the belief that there wasn't a single person outside the bubble at this party? If there was just 1, that's...

    Dragons statement: Player breach

    If there was ONE person at the party that wasn't either a player or partner of a player, the bubble was broken. It's very hard to believe there wasn't at least one. We've all heard the stories of people running away when the cops turned up. And again, you fail to acknowledge that whilst all...

    Dragons statement: Player breach

    Not even close to a double standard. The Dogs players and Dugan broke protocol, but not also during a state imposed lock down. The fact they were required to self isolate for 14 days negated the need for the NRL to have to impose a suspension. If anything, the fact that the suspensions can be...

    News Roosters ask for $350k Salary Cap Relief

    Surely if Cordner suffered a concussion in November and isn't fit to play in March 4 months later some serious questions have to be asked about how and why he will be fit in round 12, and whether it's not a genuine concern that he be allowed to return at all. Comparing Cordner to Foran is...

    So, I love how DeBelin cant play footy but the Attorney General can stay in his role.

    Cameron Smith is the greatest rugby league player ever.

    Imagine how he would have gone at the Titans where he was all but signed at at the end of 09 before an already 1m over the cap Storm offered him a contract that they were then allowed to honour instead of having to release an illegally retained player.

    Round 5 v Sharks

    I think that's a bit harsh. A teacher or something at a school that a kid of a player goes to. That could have happened to any player.

    Sack mcgregor

    You would be surprised how much Head is on. As in, shocked as to how low it is. I can't say how I know, but it is less than the average wage is, and not close to a 6 figure salary. Certainly surprised me. Someone else gets it. It's not all about the now. It's also about the future. How many...

    Anthony Siebold is more concerned about vaccinating NRL players than Broncos performances

    Although I'm pretty sure your tongue is firmly in your cheek with that comment, I'm going to bite........ This belief that Brisbane provide all this value to the TV deals is just a fallacy. They would provide next to nothing in value for Fox. And the value for 9 would be, at best, 1/3 of the...

    John Bateman

    So, if he got his 4 year extension and then was garbage in 2020 and 2021, would he be willing to renegotiate and take less? Works both ways in theory but never in reality. Also, all this boo hoo, I've only got a short time in the game garbage is just that. Garbage. They still have 30 years to...

    GI - out of retirement to Warrington

    Not a South's supporter and far from it, but here's my take. I have no issue with Inglis retiring and whatever he got paid by the club from that point on counting towards the cap fornhis new role and the rest not. Him retiring is no different to you or I retiring -his employer needs to replace...

    Little Johnny's dad will do it. They'll give him a whistle and a hi viz vest and off we go. He can be paid $8 and get a pie and coke from the canteen at the end of the game.

    News Coronavirus and NRL

    But what about the reverse situation, which is one we see often in the game. A team puts in an awesome defensive effort and defends 3 or 4 back to back sets on their line. The opposition make a mistake and give the ball away then lie all over the tackle. At that point,the last thing the team...

    News Coronavirus and NRL

    So team A make a break. Fullback makes a tackle. Attacking team have 6 players lined up out wide with a huge overlap. Fullback just lays there to allow his team to get back onside. It's not a penalty, it's 6 again. It's not a sin bin, cause it's not repeated behaviour. You can't have an...

    News Coronavirus and NRL

    Subjective rules suck. And you see it all the time. What is a penalty at the the 5th minute isn't in the 72nd. Will be very interesting to see how this plays out and if some teams give away a lot more sets than others. Not a fan of this change. Nor the stupid change of being able to set the...

    Mate, you are living in fantasy land. A lot of people would have guessed Fox would have that number because, for a very long time, people were saying that they just wanted a sports subscription and not the rest of the garbage that came with it. It's not now, nor for a very long time will it be...

    In what world are you living? 800k subscribers? There isn't a snowballs chance in hell on a month of Sundays of that happening. I'll come back to something I posted the other day. The WWE - a huge, worldwide brand - has their own streaming service. This is available worldwide. They have about...

    I genuinely would like to know how and why you think this is going to be the case. To be the major source they would need to generate, and I'll split equal here, over 100M a year. Where is this money coming from? You simply won't get 1M households paying $100 a year. It's a myth that digital...

    News Coronavirus and NRL

    Why all the concern about the digital rights? Is it because of the fact the websites for clubs will all be generic? Cause they already are. Or because of a potential loss of revenue from the streaming rights? Because they would be worth a pittance. I'm just going to compare the NRL to the WWE...
