When do we start calling grown men adults and not kids? It's like all footy players are 'kids' so we excuse them for their poor life choices.

If only the Foran case was just the fact he broke up with his missus.

Its much worse than that, but anyway!

I think there are only two teams in the comp who could win 12 from 15 (14 now) this season. We're definitely not one of them.

I was talking about it today and I don't even think the Cowboys or Broncos will go 12 from 15 for the rest of the year.

They did last year and I think they're far superior than the rest of the comp. The biggest issue though is whether they are going to have to really, there isn't much outside of Sharks and the Storm to challenge them for a Top 2 spot.

I say storm are pretenders. They have the easiest draw so far of the top 6 sides and have lost both times they have played top 6 sides.

My prediction is the Broncos will win it, but will lose a few games around origin where some will doubt them
but will come home strong.

I said the same thing in 2009 and 2006 then a miracle happened.

I think the team with the defence we had in the first six weeks would be a good chance. I don't feel we're anywhere near as good as that now though (and haven't for a few weeks). That team in the first six weeks wouldn't have allowed the first two Souths tries to be scored.

I can't see Storm worrying either of the top 2 sides. The Finals won't be played on a Sunday afternoon at Shark Park either.

I don't want to upset Twizzle

Can we just say go and check her Instagram page? I think there are some things on there that may suggest what happened and why people might be frustrated by the resulting actions......

That Brown guy was good.

The burgess' and brown beat us
I agree. I thought he was absolutely inspirational, particularly when we were under pressure and coming off our own line. In a team that has in recent weeks been criticised for having a poor attitude, his type of player is so valuable. He is definitely a representative player for the future. I'd go so far as to say that he'd be a better pick for NSW than Bryce Cartwright.

I hate to be the one that complains about the referees but I thought Ben Cummins had a shocker. In recent weeks we have had no one but ourselves to blame for our rubbish performances but if we had lost tonight we could have blamed the referee. For starters, we were penalised all night for the most innocuous ruck infringements, then there was Greg Inglis getting penalised for making a good tackle, Jennings' forward pass for Semi's second try was missed, Nathan Brown getting penalised for a supposed swinging arm that hit De Gois in the chest, Adam Reynolds getting denied a try which by the letter of the law was a clear try, Brad Takairangi's knock on at the end where the referee calls "knock on both ways" yet awards the scrum to Parra...the list goes on. I think its fair to say that we were doing it tough in terms of rub of the green in regards to the refereeing decisions. My question is, would Peats have been the difference between the two teams if he was playing tonight?

I thought the whole thing about him not being the father of one of his kids was a load of bullshit started by Jackie O and Kyle Sandilands? Wasn't she forced to apologise or something?
