The Sharks may just very well be the rugby league version of the Golden State Warriors (NBA team).

Discuss

Melbourne Storm are already much more like Golden State.

- Cosmopolitan city by a bay.
- Annoying snobby fans.
- Mostly dominant throughout the year, and quite often the finals.
- Some of the best talented yet most hated players.
- Nick Young and Young Tonumaipea.
- Steph Curry and Steph' Kearney.
- Vunivalu is black like Draymond Green.

I got an alert from the NRL App calling him a “big star”. Thats fake news for sure, they’ve definately over exaggerated him

Dunno what the big deal is
He is a rep player with heaps of experience.
Some other pleb club are paying a huge chunk of his wage and he is probably at best a benchie in our squad.

At the dogs he was a marquee signing.

Ha

You forgot to add "former" before "rep player". Like Gallen, Lewis and Dugan he'll never see another rep jersey again.

Serious question- may be obvious, but do players move house every time they switch teams? Obviously if interstate but what about nsw teams? I’m unsure on distances in the state so happy to hear what goes on

Erm depends

If you live in the Eastern Suburbs and sign for Penrith, you hire a motel room in Penrith for the year and only go there when you have to. Your missus stays in the East and you get to root a succession of slappers you pick up at Panthers

If you live in Redfern, you are missing something between the ears and would pretty much live anywhere except Campbelltown

If you live in Parramatta you are only getting signed by the Bulldogs or the Gold Coast. You only really move for one of those options.

If you play for Manly and live on the Northern Beaches it will come as a complete shock that there is a World outside of the Northern beaches and leaving will make your head explode. See Anthony Watmough as your reference point.
 

big hit!

$200-250k out of $850k. That's pretty good for Canterbury. They've got the bulk of an overpaid plodder's pay off their book. Paying $250k for an unseen prop is much better than $850k. Gallen is obviously retiring at the end of season so Sharks were keen to stock up. Woods is overvalued for the next 3 seasons for mine.

Now to the Foran problem. I was hoping the dogs would be in the doldrums for a while, but they've been on the front foot cleaning up the shit Dib, Castle & Hasler left behind. Bullfrogs spawn just as organised, efficient and effective as the old man it seems
