He’s a bit bitter the Ol’ Gronk

Gronk is hardly the person who is the problem on this site tbh.

I reckon Talagi and Sanders are the only sure things. Arthur is a maybe, imo, along with half a dozen others.

Parry. Big unit and fast. I think he might be the best pick.
But YES I could be wrong. It's hard to gauge a prop. To many are just more physically developed amd that's why they look good

Who is the problem? I feel like anyone who posts is a possitive personally as they are contributing. What they have to say can be seen as a negative by some but as a possitivr by others. It's purely personality and preference based. I can't think of any poster that I wish didn't post even tho I give some a hard time I still largely enjoy their contribution

Thanks ... tho i am probably more a bit of an angry old merkin these days

You're a nice guy that had a gutfull and is unleashing

Foxtel/Kayo is about subscriptions .... it would come down to whether they think it would attract more subscribers ... i have doubts it would make an impact.

Nine is ad oriented. But it would seem they feel they are better off going with the womens game.

The WNBA loses horrific amounts of money but it's been going for over 25 years.

I agree with that whole statement tbh. This site is fantastic for the range of opinions allowed to be expressed.
I don't agree that some posters get unfairly targeted at times, and possibly bullied. As you say, they are only expressing their own opinions as well. And it works both ways.
I just find that the older I get, the less I f**king care tbh.
I can't really be bothered getting cranky at smart arses and opinionated wankers anymore. It is boring
I certainly find it easier these days to completely ignore trolls, and there is quite a few in the Parra forum, that is for sure.

Are there any highlights of the game. Can someone post a link please?

From the SG Ball grand final team, these merkins played Harold Matts in 2022 so are eligible for SG Ball again next year:

Alameddine
Penisini
Talagi
Tuivati
Arthur
Piukala

Twidle, Vaivela, Lynn and Lewis played Mal Meninga Cup (under 18s) last year so might be in their last year of SG Ball (under 19s) eligibility. And these merkins played SG Ball last year so are probably ineligible next year:

Sanders
Fualema
De Stradis (both twins)
Guymer
Pryke
Spence

Parry also played SG Ball last year.

[ALX25]

Devonte Vaivela is also eligible for SG Ball next year.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Devonte Vaivela is also eligible for SG Ball next year.

I had a look earlier and he played Cyril Connell Cup in 2021 so you are correct. Lynn and Twidle played 18s in 2021 so probably ineligible, while I could find nothing on Lewis prior to last year.

Who do you reckon will partner Talagi in the halves next year? Assuming he stays in SG Ball.

I said he was bitter not the problem. And I was joking but whatever.
