Things That Happen EVERY Year

A bunch of freakishly talented Kiwi youngsters burst onto the scene. Somehow the Warriors have managed to miss signing ANY of them.

NZ vs Australia test shapes up to be a ripper of a game until half the NZ side withdraws due to injury/suspension. The Kiwis duly play a side full of out-of position rookies, and get belted.

The NZ test side has about 20 world-class forwards to choose from, but no stand-off or fullback.

the team leading the comp 3 weeks out from the finals is "not thinking about the finals", and rather is "just taking it one game at a time"

When they win the minor premiership, they then make a concerted effort to "not get complacent"

*The Sharks continue to leave the porch light on.

*Denis Fitzgerald pisses someone off with his comments BEFORE the Eels play them to get more of a crowd along and the Eels lose.

Terry Hill/Paul Green is fit and recovered for the start of the season.

17 seconds into round 1 he is being carried off with his career in doubt.

Jason Stevens gets through an entire season in which every television appearance he makes, and every interview he gives is centered around the fact that yes..he hasnt had sex in 10 years.

Its a fairly little known fact. Doesnt get much media attention.

To be precise, Stevo has been waiting 8 years. (in his book he says he had his first root when he was 20, 11 years ago now, and he didn't give up the game until he was 23).
