2005 season guide

[t-ba]

While the Telegraph one could be interesting, the guide I always look forward to the most is the Herald's guide. Nothing like having a good laugh reading Phil Gould's predictions... that hasn't been out yet has it?

It really is an indictment against the Telecrap that Fool Goulds guide is better...

Does anyone here actually read other people's posts? As I said earlier the 2005 NRL season guide is out this Wednesday Feb 16

Also, how does Andrew Johns giving his tips make the Telegraph guide crap? It's actually a vast improvement on past years I think. Better than nothing that's for sure

 

[Mr Saab]

telecrap was exactly that...crap.
Why have andrew johns talk about the clubs chances....stupid stupid stupid.

Wasn't as good as last years though. Last year, with all the players they wrote a brief description about them

 

[HevyDevy]

Well that shut me up!! :shock:

The guide isn't included in the subscription. While the guide is published by the same organisation(News magazines) and has the same staff working on it, it isn't Big League.

Official NRL 2005 Season Guide now available

14 February 2005


The highly popular Official NRL 2005 Season Guide is now available in newsagents, and it is a 'must have' publication for the series league fan.

Inside the 164-page booklet is the greatest collection of information, records and statistics ever compiled as a season handbook.

Other than the interactive section where you cal fill in your team's season progress, round by round with the details of each match, you will find the photo and profile of every player in every club's full-time squad, with complete career records, date of birth, place of birth and more. It's a great reference tool for the 2005 season.

And for the statistically minded and trivia buffs, it has a wealth of information too.

Whether it be every player who has scored 1000 career points, or 100 first grade tries, or 200 first grade appearances for the one club - to the most field goals in a career or the biggest comebacks in league history - it's all there in the Official NRL Information handbook and 2005 Season Guide.

We could go on - the tables for the past decade, the top performers year by year since the NRL began in 1998; ticket prices from around the grounds, contact details for every club, referees profiles, how the judiciary works, each player's stats for 2004, when he made his debut and his record for his current club. It's all there.

It's on sale now in newsagents in NSW and Queensland for $9.00 or you can order directly from Big League by contacting inquries@bigleague.newsltd.com.au.

Its about f*cking time!

 

[HevyDevy]

Aaah, apparently the BL season preview will now be out next Monday

 

[Prodigiousman]

If you are after player comments and an objective ratings system look out for the first annual Nicolson Sports Consultancy Rugby League Players Almanac to be released online (via LU) in late Feb/early March 2005!

It will be easy to print and includes every player (not just the top 25) known to be on each team's books as of the release date. From Andrew Johns to Frank Winterstein - its slightly comprehensive.

Look for it later this month.

Did I mention it will be free?

Sounds good Prodigy dude!!

For everyone's info, BL Season Preview is due Friday but expected Monday

Got it today. Bit disappointed that it didnt have the player description like former years. But still a good read.
