    How come Danny McGuire wasn't playing for England?

    Injured? Past it? Out of form?

    James Roby

    Fair enough. It's a shame he won't come out here and test himself against the big boys though. That's selfish on my part because every pommie that comes out here weakens the Super League. I always regretted never seeing Sculthorpe in the NRL, by far the best English player of his generation...

    James Roby

    I've had a wrap on this guy for years. We bought Scott Moore, why didn't we pay a few dollars more and get the real deal?

    New eligibility rules to be introduced after the World Cup

    I've long wondered why this solution hasn't been the case already. I understand the Uate example and the problems it creates but is that worse than what already happens. What we're doing is not working, this is one suggestion for improving the situation and I don't see any others. The idea...

    One Ref System

    The other point I forgot to mention is the need to get the markers straight. All teams have developed the technique of the second marker routinely placing his left/right hand on the front marker's right/left shoulder so they effectively present a two man wall to the dummy half either side of...

    One Ref System

    I thought Henry Perenara did a fair job under the circumstances but the game clearly showed why we went to two refs and why we can't go back to one as some propose. There was little control of the rucks with tacklers and tackled players getting tangled up and very untidy play-the-balls as a...

    7Mate need to use the Pause Live TV button

    Teething problems for 7Mate taking someone else's feed but they kept cutting to ads after tries, missing the replay and then coming back to watch the players walk back to halfway and the kickers line up the conversions. If they had someone pushing the Pause Live TV button at the right time, it...

    Should Burgess miss the Cup?

    Lucky to stay on the field. Reckless, born out of frustration and softness on the part of the NRL judiciary.

    Who's going?

    Off to Melbourne with a mate for the first time tomorrow. Have done a few Brissie road-trips in the past and flew in for Game 2 last year. Traditions? Trying out the pubs wherever I am. Bring it on.

    QLD...best league team ever assembled?

    I don't have the team lists for the great Qld sides of 88-89 but I always thought they were pretty special with Lewis, Langer, Miles, Meninga, Belcher, Backo, Lindner Boxhead Walters etc, etc. Of course, you can say that some of those blokes wouldn't get a run in today's side but champions...

    QLD...best league team ever assembled?

    Not sure whether you're extracting the urine or not, but, like others, I think we're vulnerable to NSW's mobile game against our lumbering bench. A real clash of styles. NSW had to try something different, so good luck to them, it worked in Game 2 last year. Bring it on.

    Ashley Graham.

    You blokes need to watch more Cowboys games before you post this rubbish.

    Worrying story in Tele

    LOL if you guys pick Creagh again. The only bloke ever to pick a fight in Origin and then backpedal out of it. Please pick him again.

    Intent cannot be proved. It can only be inferred from an offender's actions.

    RLW's Greatest Origin Side

    Perhaps Dell gave that rating in terms of scoring flashy tries but the work he (and Tuquri to a lesser extent) did as extra forwards was a tremendous part of his game. Fair point on Langer, who was outstanding at Origin level, I'd have to do some research on Joey (that I'm not going to do)...

    RLW's Greatest Origin Side

    Not sure of the numbers of matches Ladmate, but I would think Slater's played more than enough to qualify. JMO.

    RLW's Greatest Origin Side

    SOO's worst side would be an interesting thread as well.

    RLW's Greatest Origin Side

    I think Slater's gone well past that AFL cutie now.
