Cows currently getting lapped by the Titans at home. We should put a number on them no matter how many players we’re missing, they are pure trash

I can't remember back to having so many bad teams in this comp, so far off the pace so early, normally it's one team that's really bad this year it's more about 4.

The uptempo style has made the gap bigger then it was

How we can have one, maybe two expansion teams when there are so many rank average first graders running around now.

They have added so many new rules you no longer can play nrl without being a pro athlete, being a footballer is no longer enough and at the moment there arnt enough footballers that are pro athletes to go around.
Unless the nrl hand out sombreros to the new clubs they won’t compete.
Only fair way to distribute player talent is for every club to have 1 player exempt from the salary cap so the top 16 players get spread around and teams eg. Melbourne can’t keep smith, Cronk and slater in 1 team they would be forced to pick 1 and in doing so weaken 1 club to strengthen another.

I take your point, and the speed has exacerbated it, but for mine it has been years we have had more teams than players worthy of first grade.

As it is some teams and games are unwatchable.

The cowboys arent understrength.
They are littered with SOO players.
They are simply not putting in.
Maquire said it himself after sundays game.

Theyve had years riding on thurstons coat tails and have become soft. The coach is a hard arse as was paul green and they simply do not have the heart for the fight.
2 international players apparently have the shits because the coach wont give them their own way. JT and holmes
