Anyone want to give up drinking? Play the take a drink when Hoffman passes game.

Anyhow, nice to be first on the board.

Half the players live paycheck to paycheck and the NRL is paid for the next 5 years. The NRL would outlast the players. And the players would never be unified enough to strike.

This shoulder charge rule is getting beyond a joke. Seriously what kind of f**king pansy dickheads do we have running the game?

you should be angry at the players. the charge has been banned for over a year. learn to freakin tackle and you wont get penalized.

Ennis kicking on third? Wtf

 

[Sans Souci Sainter]

f**king ch9's coverage is shit.

Perret kicks it out hilariously and we don't get to see it off the boot.

Surely that was accidental offside?

The dogs are woeful at best

Good point. I didn't think of that..

 

[johns_reds]

He kicked that? Try?

What kind of braindead idiots do we have playing the game that they keep doing it when they know it'll get punished.

They are players that are happy to play a sport with understood risks. You know, like how people still box despite knowing they'll get punched in the head constantly, or how all ice hockey players demanded the right to be able to down tools and have regulated punch ups on the ice. Or how gridiron players have agreed that shoulder charges that don''t impact the head are perfectly fine to keep in the game (you know, the game that our dumbass administrators use and the poster child for why we need to ban shoulder charges)

Its a game for men, not pussies. Let them play it.

Unless the NRL and the clubs are run by total geniuss they will have negotiated to not be at risk in the event of a strike. The NFL still gets tv money if their players strike. The NRL would be smart enough to do the same.

Good point. I didn't think of that..

I don't think anyone did when they thought about quitting drinking.

Solid start by our star signing. Looks a lot sharper than anything I've seen from him this off-season. The Bulldogs are more than helping us and we should be 10-12 ahead by now with this possession in the inside our own 20m.

VIDOT - first look. No try.

 

[tomdl]

Looked held up at first

 

[tomdl]

Try

But what does this have to do with playing a drinking game revolving around whether or not Hoffman passes the ball?

 

[whall15]

The Bulldogs look like crap.

 

[man2iel_]

Vidot gets it down. Just. Corey Thompson made one hell of an effort against Vidot who is a beast on the wing in my opinion and a signing I am excited about for Brisbane.

 

[BunniesMan]

Broncos all over the Dogs. Just like I called it. I mentioned it before the game. Where do the Doggies points come from? Still no answers.

They'll struggle to score this year. No razzle dazzle, no x factor, no magic.

And those players (or their carers) are the ones that would sue and send the NRL bankrupt when their brains are f**ked 20 years from now.
