There is no chance in the world in all my years watching this game that Jake Arthur would ever get into the Parra 17 maybe not even top 30 if it wasn’t for the coach. No f**king chance. Plenty of past players have said the same thing. We can’t all be blind and biased FFS.

However in saying that I’d never be so stupid or evil to boo him under any circumstances. I’m not happy about it and think that he is not ready and may never will be but it is not his fault. It’s his fathers bias and nepotism. That’s what I think. Whether it’s true who knows, ask Nathan Brown. I think he has an opinion on it.


100% spot on!!!

let’s hope we pick up another genuine half/utility option for 2023. Let’s also hope the coach has learnt something in all of this.

I am happy for him to be in the top 30 of he is leading everyone in training and pushing the rest of the squad to do better.

If any of the other players were performing at training and at CUP level to knock JA out of the top 17 this year then I didn't see anyone.

That said for his development I don't want to see him near the 17 next season stay in cup and develop.

Newscorpse spend more time digging up dirt on players than they do writing about the actual game of RL

Eminent Proctocologist Professor Corey Norman has reignited his career after copping a ridiculous grade F charge (which resulted in being sacked from Toulouse) for inserting his fingers into an opponent’s bottom.

He is now playing in France semi-professional league.

In the same team as James Maloney apparently. They must have a bit of coin in the French league.
