Even if they do, it may not have much to do with Adam OBrien - quite possibly have lost his job by then!
Yep my tip is i reckon he won't last the season. And the knights may be a chance for the spoon especially if Ponga gets injured.

Riccio did a hit job on newcastle today about internal unrest relating to the treatment of Jayden Brailey seems like all is not well up there

something that is or turns out to be insignificant or lacking in substance.

Nobody died. No foul language was used. His schlong didn’t come out. The camera was zoomed out at the critical moment*. The female reporter laughed. The commentators laughed. It was a trial in Newcastle, not a showcase in Vegas.
Edit: *unless the replay showed the zoomed out view only

They want us to live in a vanilla predictable world

Joe O is raging against that

She may have laughed to not make it seem like it wasn't an issue.

It was just dumb and inappropriate.

If he cops a fine from the NRL he has no one to blame but himself really.
We all know how the media likes to jump at any chance they get. Before it becomes more than it ever should ever be the media team at Parra should put it to bed with Joe fronting the cameras with a bit of spin in the mix. I don't think he should be fined or suspended. Just man up and move on. It will be forgotten by Monday.

Equally, and unless we hear otherwise, she probably laughed coz she thought it was funny and wasn’t an issue.
Eloise Sohier (fox reporter) on air “…as he gets dacked live on television. Zac, give it up for the crowd for Zac Lomax”.
She probably was saying ‘give it up for the crowd’ because she was feeling awkward or offended.
Edit: at the end of the interview…”go and get whoever dacked you”.

Has anyone jumped?

So the Joe O dacking Lomax thing. Surely if we consider Gutho attending a presser in his dick stickers and Bushy not wearing shoes as unprofessional, this is worse. 100% dopey in my opinion. There’s a time and a place. I hope Ryles stamps this stupid shit out. We don’t need it.
100% I was waiting for the outrage.

Cronk was very complimentary about us earlier. He said he wasn’t surprised to see a FAR fitter looking side under Ryles. He mentioned they already look like a different, but “better side”.

He other comments were aimed at Volkman whom he said is a seriously good half for NRL level. He admired how classy and straight he plays.

Nice feedback from a very good NRL analyst.

So al lot of people online were saying “ re-sign Volkman before 5 other clubs start a bidding war”. Cos we only signed him for 2025.

Here’s a conundrum, do we re-sign Volkman as understudy for Moses and risk losing Lincoln Fletcher like we did Ethan Sanders ?

Lifes too short to worry too much about minor stuff like this, ryles, moses who ever might give Joe a little talking to. Not a big deal in my eyes


I agree with your point - but I just can't escape the fact that it was 29-year Ofahengaue who did this...I mean, then dude represented Queensland....

No harm, but it is a little unprofessional, and you would not expect that sort of immature antics from a senior player at the club.

Having said that, a dressing down from Mitch, Jason, and the leadership group is probably all that the incident really warrants.
