NRL-level rugby league - no where to run to, nowhere to hide.The Rugby League Sin Bin TEAM OF THE ROUND.
1 Scott Drinkwater. When he's on, he's on. I'll give him that. Missed more tackles than he made, but to be fair the Cowboys frontline didn't do him many favours.
2 Zac Lomax. The bloke has made a few errors in life, getting dumped by Jess Sergis most notably. He added a couple more to that list against the Raiders with his classic "hero ball" have to come up with something every time I touch the ball style.
3 Billy Smith. The bloke is made in China. Cheap plastic. At this point I genuinely think he's sustained every injury you possibly can on the field.
4 Corey Allan. Not convinced he's an NRL centre. Actually, I'm not convinced he's an NRL player at all. Still the winner of an Origin decider, unlike some players *cough* Nathan Cleary *cough*
5 Jaxon Paulo. Replaced Robert Derby, so realistically just had to NOT make 3 or more errors. Still came up with 3 and looked as comfortable as Russell Packer did pre-game before he pissed himself out there.
6 Chad Townsend. Must have forgot he no longer plays for the Cronulla Sharks. A really poor effort by a bloke who is more interested in being the Aussie Logan Paul on YouTube than footy anymore.
7 Tanah Boyd. Now I see why even the Titans didn't want him. Missed a penalty goal right in front, after missing two field goals, only to miss a THIRD field goal, and have his first grace place saved by Leka the Wrecker.
8 Thomas Mikaele. Got the chance to start and send a message. He definitely sent a message with his 4 hit ups and 40 metres. The message that he's a reserve grader or few minutes from the bench player at best. Fortunately for him, it takes Todd Payten at least 10 shit games before he drops a player.
9 Harry Grant. Not his worst performance, but not many 9s to pick this round, so cop that Harry. Must have had his QLD Origin game one jumper on underneath that Storm one.
10 Nelson Asofa-Solomona. One of the toughest and bravest players I've ever seen... Provided the opposition player weighs 50kg less than him. A grubby player that must have been a little too excited for the UFC with the elbow he threw.
11 Tui Kamikamica. Really easy to see why no other club is interested in signing him. Oh well, there's always Super League.
12 Jaeman Salmon. Still a weak gutted dog if you ask me. 5 hit ups and 20 tackles for 3 misses doesn't cut it. Add on top of that his stupid hair dye and Tik Toks lately for extras.
13 Jackson Hastings. A dog shit player, and a dog shit bloke in general. Has been kicked out of more clubs than Todd Carney, and I wouldn't be surprised if he drinks his own piss either.
HM: Charlie Staines. Someone check his Sportsbet account. I swear he had a bet on the Titans and cashed out at half time.
Well there are a lot of Kiwis in and around and near Logan (a lot of my family are in Algester and Browns Plains) so I can see the sense.In news that's sure to annoy @Matua (though Cam the George does say this is somehow for New Zealanders in Australia), the Warriors are setting up an academy and community program in Logan, in Queensland: https://www.warriors.kiwi/news/2025/07/21/one-new-zealand-warriors-set-up-base-in-logan-city/
