    Match Discussion: Round 16 vs Canberra @ Campbelltown Sports Stadium, Leumeah / Dharawal

    And what about Rapana playing the ref off a break with the "loophole" that even the 9 commentary team saw through. The one where Rapana had possession and the raiders were given a set restart for a leg pull but Jordan said I'm smarter than this nuff nuff with the whistle, I'll just drop it and...

    Match Discussion: Round 16 vs Canberra @ Campbelltown Sports Stadium, Leumeah / Dharawal

    The clown being the ref - Not Seyfarth You'd think there would be some sort of Ranga code as well !!

    Match Discussion: Round 16 vs Canberra @ Campbelltown Sports Stadium, Leumeah / Dharawal

    I fully agree - Very harshly done by....But the penalty stats etc posted above show that these hopeless refs have sub-conscious bias which goes against the lowly ranked teams all the time. It's so frustrating. In relation to the sin-binning let me pose the following questions -> 1) How often do...

    Imagine how early he would've started "day drinking" today as he tried to look for, but couldn't find an angle...

    Match Discussion: Round 12 vs North Qld @ Queensland Country Bank Stadium, Townsville / Wulgurukaba

    Maybe Richo's looking to do a deal to play home games at Wembley - Good corporate facilities there I've heard 😂😂

    Match Discussion: Round 10 vs Newcastle @ Scully Park, Tamworth / Kamilaroi

    Bradman Best should be thanking his lucky stars and going out and buying a lottery ticket. On the same week Turbo goes down injured he gets to strut his stuff against us, only to have a centre and edge backrower go down injured. Our backline reshuffle puts him up against an edge consisting of...

    Match Discussion: Round 10 vs Newcastle @ Scully Park, Tamworth / Kamilaroi

    Interesting stats here - And yep as per previous post re FR/Middles ya gotta respect the workrate of Seyfarth and Twal. However here is the but....and it's a BIG BUT! We don't dominate in tackles, especially in the middle like other teams do. We give away alot of quick play the balls because we...

    Match Discussion: Round 10 vs Newcastle @ Scully Park, Tamworth / Kamilaroi

    I think we need a big strong and mobile FR / Middle for next year. Seyfarth and Twal are tryers and I respect them but if we want to move up the ladder we need to add a bit more dominance and mongrel. A player from a club that plays semi-final football (well at least one final per year at the...

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    A Draft? - Be careful what you wish for! There are basically no drafts operating in major sports around the world that would apply to the likes of Fifita, Young, Lenui or any other established NRL player. The American drafts in the NBA and NFL are external drafts whereby college players are...

    Match Discussion: Round 6 vs St Geo Illa @ Campbelltown Sports Stadium, Leumeah / Dharawal

    I think they had no choice but to release Blore given the overs paid for Bateman (who Sheens went ALL IN ON..). Interested on peoples thoughts but I'd much rather have Blore over Bateman who is nowhere near the player he was with Canberra in 2019.

    Match Discussion: Round 9 vs Penrith @ Carrington Park, Bathurst / Wiradjuri

    I know right... Before the game the journo's all saying Cleary's kicking game in the conditions would be the difference. After the game they say the rain brought the panthers back to the pack and evened up the contest. You can't have it both ways boys ?!?!

    Match Discussion: Round 6 vs Parramatta @ Accor Stadium, Sydney Olympic Park

    Well he knows all about shoosh - as he showed by being very quiet in the Grand Final last year... So quiet I hardly knew he was on the field !!

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    Thanks for posting this - I didn't see or hear it so thanks for posting... Slater is 100% correct!!! Does Laurie have some issues and deficiencies - Yes, but surely with perseverance he can be improved; But he is a much better option at FB compared with Douehi. I love the bit where Slater states...

    Statement for Shannon Cavanagh - Chairman of Wests Magpies

    Whilst the reply was to a post from Marshall the info is probably directed more widely and is something that many people should know, including many of our own fans (some on this very site) and the media. It amazes me how so many so called sports and footy journo's keep propagating the incorrect...

    Statement for Shannon Cavanagh - Chairman of Wests Magpies

    Just on the point about buying out the last 10% - While I'm not 100% sure of the legal / business / registered clubs act side of things, I am pretty sure that my memory serves me correctly in saying that the only reason that the Balmain side of things have 10% is because Wests Ashfield "gifted"...

    Match Discussion: Round 5 vs Brisbane @ Suncorp Stadium, Milton

    Following on from previous post - Here's the team that I would go with. Yep many of them are flawed, but as I mentioned - For this year they're are what we've got! Laurie Staines Naden Talau Tupou Douehei Wakeham (take your time son - You've got the season to become our Game Manager) Bateman (...

    Match Discussion: Round 5 vs Brisbane @ Suncorp Stadium, Milton

    Another disappointment of monumental proportions... But it is time to stop looking for easy options bought about by constantly shuffling the team and / or looking for desperation buys (such as Pearce) which won't work and will do more damage and further destabilise the playing group. The old...

    Match Discussion: Round 3 vs Canterbury @ Belmore Sports Ground, Belmore

    Douehi doesn't really play outside Brooks. More often than not Brooks is on the left and Douehi on the right. The problem is neither is a good enough "ball player".
