    News Paul Kent incidents - domestic abuse charges dismissed, street fight

    ‘It’s all part of the rugby league circus’ or whatever he said about his court case….. Sad old man.

    GAME DAY. Mighties vs Rickys Unhappy Clappers

    Completely agree… Make Papali and Tapine tackle, plenty, in the opening 20 mins, grind them down. Once Papali goes off, their middles are bang average and won’t be able to go with the grind - and we will have a fresh BHU and Williams lifting the tempo, plus Papali is not as effective in 2nd...

    South Sydney Rabbitohs issues

    The Souths middles (or lack of) is a huge weakness. And I still say that some players just don’t look as athletic as they should - some of their players are not taking life as a professional athlete home with them. One of things I’d be very worried about if I were a Souths fan is Cam Murray...

    Supercoach 2024 - I've gone off early

    Yeah, I need you to have some serious HIA issues I reckon, but given the amount of Sharks in your team, I really don’t want that. I should have gone Nicho captain, without Trindall there, he’s gonna take on more ball…. You’ve played your cards right I reckon .

    TLT vs Raider in Raiderberra

    I hope Tobys absence isn’t linked to the whole Trindall situation.!

    Supercoach 2024 - I've gone off early

    I gave the C to Turbo as thought Manly would pump the Eels…. Another terrible C decision for me… not got it right once this year. Turbo doesn’t look quite right to me, he’s nowhere near as involved as he usually is. I reckon he’s carrying an injury or has been told to limit his involvement to...

    Trindall fails roadside alcohol and drug tests

    The first night they went to air after it had become public, they had Kent (obviously) and Hooper on - no coincidence they didn’t fancy talking about it.

    Jackson Topine sues Bulldogs

    Agree!!!! My theory is also that banning the shoulder charge has had an adverse impact on concussions, and has actually increased the number of concussions, by moving the risk from the attacker (where risk was generally limited to illegal high contact and infrequently whiplash related...

    OT - OTHER GAMES 2024

    Sivo and Taane Milne on a par this week…. Dumb blokes keep on dumbing

    Flanagan Jab at Sharks.

    I actually thought his comments were quite funny, he was just having a bit of a light hearted laugh in what was a crap time for him. He’s a funny bloke Flanno, and a bloody legend.

    Jackson Topine sues Bulldogs

    Hard to disagree with this. The world is a little crazy like this though - look at how many beautiful young women throw themselves at people like Mick Jagger or Lewis Capaldi….

    Jackson Topine sues Bulldogs

    Agree 100% - the issue is, there’s no workplace regs dedicated to sport. When people try and apply normal workplace regs, it just doesn’t work, for all the reasons you mention. Though I suspect foul play fines and ‘bringing the game into disrepute’ type fines are probably covered in their...

    Trindall fails roadside alcohol and drug tests

    Another what????? Can’t leave us hanging like this, especially us on the other side of the world who are in the middle of the day, not blissfully asleep

    OT: ‘Jump on him’: Former Bulldogs player lodges $4m lawsuit over ‘humiliating’ training incident

    I mentioned that on the NRL page - unless something is done to create different workplace regs/obligations for professional sport, then it’s doomed. There needs to be specific regulations around sport that protects its participants, but ensures the sports can continue without being fundamentally...

    Jackson Topine sues Bulldogs

    That’s what’s even happening for the last 10 years… started with fighting, then shoulder charge, concussion and post playing career injuries, training methods (Manly Court case), punishments….. Lawyers will and already are changing the game, and most rugby league fans and players will say for...

    O.T. NRL 360

    Oh they didn’t, but I suspect the wounds are still a bit raw for Kent…. Once they’ve healed over, I’m sure things will be back to normal.

    Jackson Topine sues Bulldogs

    I’m not presuming anything, hence my ‘if it happened as described’ line…. Personally, I don’t think it’s bullying and I’m providing Topine wasn’t being targetted as an individual, and was actually being treat the same as any other squad member in those circumstances, then I’m relatively...

    O.T. NRL 360

    I suspect the recent Kent Court case has had an impact on a couple of fronts; - Don’t hammer a bloke before he’s had his day in Court, as he could be innocent - Don’t be a hypocrite and hammer a bloke for things you have either been caught doing yourself, or could easily have been caught doing
