It should be a choice for the team that receives the penalty. If they want the 2 points then they can call it in a similar timeframe to asking for a review.

Still have no idea why we didn't rest players vs the Sharks.

100% agree it pisses me off so much and would love to see Ciraldo call it out. It's been happening for so long now and eventually you see it for what it is. For me it was last year's Manly semi. If big global sporting comps and world bodies can be corrupt, then it's not a stretch for a smaller...

Will never happen.

Won't change anything the NRL is rigged to the point of creating likely outcomes.

Should be just about every game but smiles at the refs who laugh it off before the commentators all say how great he is.

Hope we're ready for a couple of National Rorting League generated sinbinnings tonight given they've issued sin bin warnings about blocking catchers trying to score - namely Coates. What a f*****g surprise.

I was thinking they were a smokey for 4th. Now after tonight's result even moreso.

100% We don't need the win next week, we've already dealt with inconsistency throughout this season and I don't see a loss with a weakened line up as a huge issue. I'm superstitious and in every instance I can recall where teams have played in the final round and then met again in the...

And once again nothing done because it's us.

Yep early next year I see us playing Mann most of the game at 13 with Galvin at 7. By the last 6-8 weeks (assuming no injuries) I see Mann starting at 13 and perhaps some time at hooker, Galvin playing 13 after 20 minutes (with a more intensive weights plan next off season & season) with Woods...

If I understand correctly how this list was put together it's the decline of our left side after losing the threat of The Fox. Xerri was able to match it with the Fox last year but now with a slow left winger, everyone marks Xerri super tightly so he hasn't been able to stretch out properly this...

He only did what he needed to do in those teams with so many other skilful players (Lamb, Polly, J Smith, Dymock etc) but his play making ability was always there when it was needed. He just picked his times well. Prior to joining us he played as both a 6 & 7 for the Gold Coast and we turned him...

Totally agree but Ennis also needs to show some love back our way too. He was popular with the fans & our players, the club then punted Des, Raelene & Dib for a number of reasons and losing him was a considered by most to be a major f*** up.

Over 31 years rather than 25 years: 1994 Minor Premiers 1994 Grand Final 1995 Premiers 1998 Grand Final Throughout all of that time he was a key player in the team and won a heap of Man of the match awards. Player for Qld in Origin Played for Australia Dally M Hooker of the Year 1998. Would...

Hard to say if he wins us premierships probably so. Don't disagree that Ennis was a fantastic player (hooker), I just think Hetherington was better as he often out shone others as the best player onfield despite us having a lot of great players in our teams the 90s.

Just my thoughts on this but think you've hit the same discussion point as the 'Mark Taylor - How good a batsman' discussion. Like Taylor who was a f***ing brilliant captain (probably one of the best ever) who could tactically turn matches at any time, I thought Ennis (who was a very good hooker...

Love his attitude and the way he plays and glad he's been rewarded with a long term contract.

It's been coming for a while, Wighton is a consistently dirty player who most times seems to gets away with a lot of stuff often.

It was an absolute f*****g joke Lodge was not cited for any of his shoulder charges, bumper forearms etc etc- can't recall him getting penalised. He should have been doing that stuff in an American jail rather than Allianz Stadium.

Acknowledging all that I still think it was a relevant point raised by @B-Train as Pay, Smith Dymock & McCracken were all happy to initially stay with the Dogs and sign with Super League. We were then targeted by the ARL and so those guys were then counter-offered a heap of money to stay with...
