Maybe more. I can’t remember the last time we actually looked like a unit. Even some of our losses we looked good and just lost it in the end or got fucked by refs. Our attack is dependant on our left edge however our defense is also stoic. I would love for sexton to get a run as I think...

Anyone know who she is? I’ve been through the staff list on their website and can’t see her. Hilarious as there were so many shots of the tigers coaching box in the last two weeks and I’m pretty sure it’s not cos they suck, she was the centre of the camera man’s shot LOL. Absolute stunner and...

Calling it here first. He has won his premierships with Penrith and will be using the dogs to fund his retirement. He has nothing more to achieve in the game. He doesn’t have the gun services of Clearly and Korusau and he is playing with dud centres in a struggling side. Those 1% plays which...

About to kick off. Hopefully we see some coat hanger tangles and brawls.

Same applies for NRL coaches. Mick Potter is our new coach. He is the chosen one.

He brings the storm culture and disciple with him. He fired the boys up yesterday and gave them a spray after he won the captains challenge. He is the new player that can inspire others around him. Jackson lacks the fire and has baggage from captaining last years wooden spoon team. He is a...

What makes the season successful for you guys? Obviously the premiership is the ultimate target, however considering we are reigning wooden spooners, if the team make the top 8 and makes the second week of the finals I would be happy. Most of all, I want to see the boys play as a team and with...

$35k fine and banned for a few games for breaching Covid rules. Twist 1: He bought a girl back to camp breaching protocols. Twist 2: His current GF is a former miss Australia LOL Fucken love rugby league.

We have the biggest odds to win in NRL history. We have seen some mammoth upsets in league history but this would be like Fiji vs USA in a nuclear war. Looking forward to see papanhausen score 10 tries on us. LMAO

- Board Overhaul - New coach who is an attacking genius - Steve Hansen who has a history is success and culture with the all blacks - New young halve who looks to be decent - Older halve who is a proven performer + a host of other new signings to be excited about. I can’t remember the last...

Going to be announced shortly. Didnt see that coming.

Reynolds pulled over at 1:30am and failed a drug test. more to come

Anyone know what the go is here? Apparently they were never close and now they are not even talking. Also appears Slater doesn’t get on with Smith too. Wtf these guys have played with each other for storm, qld and Aus winning everything as they go.... how can you not be bros after all that?

Had one of these last year which I enjoyed reading through. Post your top 5 players you like watching and the top 5 you hate. Top 5 I like to watch: 1.) Ponga 2.) Campbell Gillard 3.) Shaun Johnston 4.) Hayne 5.) Turbo Top 5 fuckwits in the game: 1.) Woods 2.) Peptide Paul 3.) Dugan 4.)...

Im walking round my house high fiving everyone and am pumped. All cos we sacked our coach lol. 2018 just got 100x more exciting. What a time to be alive.

No kidding we are having a crap season but what many of you are failing to see is we have tied up big money in some dud players so we are stuck with them unless we do a Tigers and pay people to play at other clubs. Look at the duds that have signed: Mbye Woods Eastwood Hoppa Holland Tolman the...

Been trying to peice this together since we signed him but can't figure it out. We resigned Tolman, have Graham for another year and Klemmer all locked up. These are supposedly 3 big name props and we pay big money for another one. Wouldn't it have made more sense to throw that money at a...

Am i the only one that is finding this a bit strange? I know there was a lot going on in Sydney this week but surely ensuring we get a win (rather than a chunk of money from nz) should have been priority especially for members by playing in Sydney. Can someone who is a member tell me how you...

LOL

Not as a player, but as a drinks runner for next year. Its obvious to everyone that this club has gone to shit on-field the last few years and lacking that killer blow. Mason when he played, he played to win and despite his club hopping you know this guy bleeds blue and white just as hard as...

No official thread ? Grog Inglis just scored after fingerson dropped the ball and Dugan got caught out.

Just been announced by Jarryd on his Facebook that he didn't make the cut. Any news if he can still play NRL this season ? Watch the parra monkeys go nuts over this.

Looks bad, very bad. Someone update us ASAP

This is a pretty sad story which I am amazed has not seen more limelight. Apparently he broke his hand recently but even still he has told those close to him that he is done in the NRL and doesn't think he will be back. It hurts to run and the doctors say they have done all that they can for...

With all the talk of tanking, anyone going to have a punt on the eels? They are paying $5 for a win and a loss for Souths means they are out of the 8 hence playing a weaker team in the finals.

Lmao who else is watching this ? Da fuq is happening out there ?

This is my ultimate grand final. Two old school Sydney clubs with both very proud histories. It would be also very good for us because 100% of the pressure and media spotlight would be on the phaggitohs due to them not winning anything for the last three centuries. Already they are all...

Someone explain to me how Brent Tate did not cop any form of ban or retaliation for what he did in Origin 3 ? I don't know if I was seeing things, however I saw Tate punch a guy square in the head with a closed fist when the guy on the ground was pinned by other guys and had no way of...

With all the focus on the joke of a NSW side, this has gone a bit under the radar. With YowYeh injured, there is a pretty vacant slot on the QLD wing for someone to fill. Katruis Boyd is automatic selection on the other wing. Who fills it ? IMO Barba is a good chance, he has no problems...

For those that remember Gladiator and myself made a bet as to who would be the number 12 for the AB's. I predicted the greatest league player of our generation and one of the greatest dogs to ever live, SBW would be in the top side. Gladiator said Nonu would keep the jersey. Luckily for...

This is going to be a game to watch tonight, remember the last time these two teams met ? That crazy muda***er Matai was doing his best to be sent off but never did, Khara faked an injury and just general bad blood between the two sides. Definitely looking forward to a punch up or two.

The bolded player is the better based on form, reputation etc. 1.) Barba vs Locke - Barba only just due to his ability to win a game by himself. Hopefully he has some confidence under highball this week. 2. Turner vs Tupou - Turner is jack of all trades master of none. Tupou is an excellent...

Apparently the Storm vs Roosters game is in doubt due to all the delayed flights. All of the officials + the entire Roosters under 20 squad are still stuck in Sydney. LOL

Dugans just gone and done his ankle. Hayne to fullback NSW will now have a chance

Announced it on twitter. Man souths sure are getting screwed again with Injuries, Asotasi is also out for sometime and Sutton broke his hand (no loss here).

I made the same post last year, noone seems to give a stuff about this test match with all eyes fixed on Origin. List your teams, here are mine. Aus: 1.) Slater 2.) Morris 3.) Gasnier (overtaken Idris due to his woeful defence, has had 2 good games and is a media darling) 4.) Inglis...

1.) Slater 2.) Boyd 3.) Inglis 4.) Hodges 5.) YohYeh (18th man last year, his combination with Hodges and all round skill put him ahead) 6.) Lockyer (lol) 7.) Thurston (incumbent, QLD will persist with him over Cronk) 8.) Scott (??) 9.) Cam Smith 10.) Civo (beats out Shillington for...

LOL @ this guy. I know a lot of people have come back from ESL, but I can't recall anyone coming back and being such an abysmal failure. He has done NOTHING right. Aweful kicking game, horrid last tackle options, passing like a front rower, turnstyle in defence...list goes on. Canberra won...

Aus Squad: Ricky Ponting (capt), Michael Clarke (vice-capt), Shane Watson, Simon Katich, Callum Ferguson, Mike Hussey, Marcus North, Usman Khawaja, Brad Haddin, Nathan Hauritz, Steve Smith, Mitchell Johnson, Peter Siddle, Ben Hilfenhaus, Doug Bollinger, Ryan Harris, Xavier Doherty.

If he does indeed play a test match, considering VB is a major sponsor of Cricket Australia and how alcohol is viewed in Islam, will he ask for the VB logo to be removed from his jersey ?

Just got injured in the test match. Wally Lewis just reported in that news is not good and its leg ligament damage. Fkn hell.

These are my opinions, I have not matched them up as to how they match up on field, just positions. Remember this is Origin football. History, past performances and big games count towards how the players rate. Bold is the better player. 1.) Billy Slater vs Kurt Gidley - everything Gidley...

Source: www.stuff.co.nz They say money doesn't buy everything but it can sure buy a good footy team – just ask the Melbourne Storm. As the salary cap scandal continues to hang over the National Rugby League and, indeed, overshadow the buildup to tonight's Anzac test in the Storm's...

Based on not only career, but form from this year. I have also switched it up so number 2 vs number 5 will be up against each other like it is on the playing field. 1.) Boyd vs Patten - All due respect to the general, but Boyd looks dangerous this season. Add to the fact that he has a passing...

This is based on CURRENT form. Lets not kid ourselves, pretty much every Australian player has a glorified history which somehow justifies there selection in the team where form is irrelevant for the selectors. 1.) Billy Slater vs Lance Hohaia - Brain lapse Billy, Hohaia is faster than most...

This is a genuine question to the Kennel. With the City/Country game being played on the same day as the Test match, Gidley is a 95% chance to be on the bench which leaves a spot open for a fullback for City/Country. There is a good chance given form that Patten will be picked to represent a...
