Rumours and Stuff

[Poupou Escobar]

You can think of all tackles in terms of down and distance as in distance to the try line where I argue if one gets over the try line but is held up you should get 6 again rather than whatever plus it should be a scrum feed on the 5m line. That should be how you get a fresh set of downs rather than pinning the kick defense in the end zone (that should be a safety) which should amount to something else but I am not sure what yet but it will come to me.

You should be allowed to throw forward passes from inside your own in goal. Imagine some merkin picks up the ball in his end zone with chasers bearing down on him and suddenly launches a 30 metre spiral to a team mate who streaks away down field.

Any conversion after such a try should be under pressure from 13 merkins rushing off their line.

Parra fans: “Where’s the yellow? Why has the club gotten rid of the yellow? Bring back the yellow, ffs!”

Eels Club: “You want yellow? Here you go you f**ken merkins! Have all the f**ken yellow in the world ya whinging bastards!”

Parra fans: "...it's not yellow, jets gold! Where's the gold? Where's all the gold gone????"

Eels Club: *cocks gun*

Players should wear shoulder pads, and helmets.

The ball should be small enough to be able to throw with one hand.

There should be 20,000 referees on the field at any given game.

The halfback should have a speaker in his helmet, which links directly to one of the coaches; this coach will bark instructions down to the halfback.

Each team should have two purple twirlers to use for an official challenge; if you are unsuccessful, you lose one of the two timeouts you have.

"Tries" should be renamed "quandaries"; a quandary is worth 3.5 points, unless the player who scored it was born on a Tuesday - then, it's worth 3.75 points.

However, if the last player to hand off the tingleberry (the new name for the ball) was born weighing u der 4kg, then the quandary reverts back to 3.5 points, and is awarded to the opisition.

Well I would have thought so.

I am trying to not let my Rugby league bias come through here because he plays for a team we all dont like. But it feels like he got hit with a wet lettuce.

The actual video of the incident looked worse then the tragic Harbour Bridge accident that happened around the same time.

If that was a Parramatta player I would have been satisfied with a sacking no matter the calibre of player.

I couldn't cheer on player that had complete disregard for public safety or there own that Ezra has in this incident.

Has the NRL integrity unit done anything from their side?

They hit Dylan Brown with 7 games and $40k fine after the court proceedings.
What he did was shocking, and he deserved what he got.

However, I think it is a far worse look for the game to have a guy who already has addiction issues driving a car while under the influence of more than 1 (illegal) drug, and being unlicensed. I would have thought those 2 things would be enough for a lengthy stint on the sideline (if not a sacking), let alone the fact that he crashed and injured somebody.
His luck is that nobody died. But I don't see how he should be playing before June.

(Sandon Smith should be facing a similar sentence for mine)

I think you made a whole heap of sense until the final sentence. Then it just got stupid.

Hey @T-Boon this guy’s stealing your ideas!
