Non-eels footy stuff

[I'm a loser baby...]

Rule changes:

NRL announces rule changes for scrums, trainers, 20/40 kick, endorses challenge system

Interesting change to the location of the scrum

Why does the scrum have to be in those positions? Why not just anywhere between 10m in and the centre of the field?

I think the new rule prohibiting attackers to be tackled mid-air is ridiculous. If an attacker catches a bomb mid-air on or very close to the line it’s essentially a try.

I’m glad we have tall merkins in our team.

I’m sure Canbra have learnt from their disastrous season that strippers never prosper

I reckon its a legit medical retirement

Really on 1.2m on the cap?

Yeah I think the retirement is legit but if that’s $1.2m for a season then how? Were the other Burgii on pie and coke? Inglis would’ve still been under contract too. And in an at the time in demand Johnston, plus Reynolds would’ve taken a bit and I’m sure there have been others. my friend Dane played Origin

I assumed the top players were all on about $1.2M

1.2m on the cap tho?

I reckon half the players at any club would be on less than $200k.

Yep

It’s f**king bullshit !

I don’t believe that.

Na I’m just messing with you. I reckon the median would be in vicinity of $200-300k. And looking at the rest of Souffs roster it could’ve even been less. They had some absolute no names

 

[84 Baby]

And Souffs have Cameron Murray? Why the f**k are they signing Arrow?

Murray can also play on the edge. Sutton has retired.

I don’t reckon that’s a very smart move long term. He’ll be isolated far more on the edge and he’s going to have a tough time wrapping the ball up on his own with massive merkins like Lane running at him. He’s a very good middle (lock) and that’s where he should stay.
