    Perth Is In 2008 Jim Beam Cup!!!

    The Perth or Western - 1 STARS / 2 RANGERS / 3 MINERS are the names i like. They should have taken more time to get the name right as its a big selling point for a new team and entry into the NRL is at least 4 years away. As stated the name chosen shortly will be the name for the team on...

    JRo chants for todays game

    Ropati is not the answer at 5/8 but looks to have some thing to offer the team. He's running game is looking more threatening, with good leg speed and drive. He's one on one defence looks pretty solid. Doesn't have much of a passing game, but passes quite well with short passes of the hip...

    Brisbane Lions can get 31,000 in pouring rain

    The lions large crowds are due mainly to the huge amount of victorians moving into south east Queemsland. Beleive me the number is scary. And they have not come here to become part of our culture but to bring theirs with them and spread it, parcicularly when it comes to sport.(They only have...

    Richards Irish

    League being established in Lebanon was one of the few good points to come out of the 2000 WC. It acheived that purpose. But the international game copped a lot of flack and deservedly so. The Lebanese team that played in the 2000 tournament could have played a number of promotional matchs in...

    Richards Irish

    I think the problem international league faces at present is not that players like Richards should be stopped from playing for a addopted country but that a whole team must not be made up from non local players. The more local players the more creditability the national team would have. But by...

    Wallabies vs. Kangaroos, who would win?

    Some of the wallaby forwards are poor excuses for athelites. Union types like to go on about their forwards being more skillful, with their line outs, scrums ,ruck and mauls etc, what a load of bullocks. League is a running, passing, tackling game. Union would like to be but is bogged down with...

    NJC - My NJC

    Having all the Bartercard cup teams running a u/20 or u/19 team along with their open sides over the same amount of rounds in the national comp would be a good place to start. Would provide a stepping stone to Bartercard and provide a good quality comp for the younger players to play in all...

    Shame ARL/RLIF

    The situation in Russia appears to have come about through internal politics, there was probably little the RLIF could have done without one of the sides threating to go over to the dark side. As league spreads internationally there will be...

    FUTURE OF MELBOURNE

    Good to see the marjority of posters are now surportive of the storm remaining in the comp, this was probably not the case a year or two ago. I think though we all need to let the serial storm killers in GOULD, HADLEY,VAUTIN and FITZ know their personal agendas don't come before the good of...

    Can international RL ever be really competitive?

    I think a team of inferior atheletes can keep the score line closer in a game of union than in league. Argentina are proof of that. Some tall timber for the line outs, bulk in the scrums, ruck and maul skills, spoiling and time wasting tactics, the use of a good kicker and they run most of the...

    Can international RL ever be really competitive?

    It is also easier for the weaker side to put points on the board in union, due to the large number of penalties in the game. Its not uncommon for a badly beaten side to score 20/30 points mostly from goals/feild goals. In league a team relies on scoring the try more, this can be very difficult...

    FUTURE OF MELBOURNE

    Stalin,a good part of the reason league has not been all that successful in melbourne, is that it is not given surport from the rest of the league community. why would the melbourne media and public have confidence in the storm even existing in a few years when there is this constant stream of...
