I reckon it's been fantastic so far. I've thoroughly enjoyed every game and one of the best years so far for mine.

I can't believe no one posted a thread on this but here it is. This is the thread to congratulate the roosters on their wooden spoon. Congrats boys, supercoach got you the wooden spoon.

Seriously Sailor is awesome, he is one of those players which make you interested has a great sense of humour and is awesome at game the way he interacts with the fans, post try celebrations, etc. Go the Big Dell! Some quotes from him in a DT article. "He's a bit shy. He doesn't know what...

For those who don't know about 2 weeks ago (more or less) the www.nrl.com website got an update. Personally I think it's brilliant, it's very fast to load (old one was a heap of ****) very intuitive to use and find what you want, I love the layout or match reports where you can see stats...

What a champion, Plays all his good games exclusively for QLD and then plays like **** for the roosters. No matter how bad he's playing at the roosters come origin he steps up. HAHA, I just love it tbh :D Slater, Smith are legends (just for tonight, in Melbourne jersey they are dirty, grubs).

By Josh Massoud | May 19, 2009 12:00am I PHONED Craig Wing last Friday to gauge his feelings on the lack of day-time football, but our conversation inevitably turned to gloomier topics. "You know what? It's gotten to the point where I'm almost ashamed to be a rugby league player," Wing said...

IF you watched the game you know which one i mean, the one where he grounded it with his hip/stomach and it was awarded.... WTF!? He was running at full speed made absolutely zero effort to use his hands to score and just dived over it with his body and it was awarded a try, this could be a...

I haven' treally watched him, I don't know if he's a good player or not but last weekend he made 74 tackles with one missed and 9 hitups for 78 metres. (God Damn! I need him in my fantasy league team asap) Anyone know the record for tackles in one match?

I made up the title :p Honestly though the nrl can not ban ennis, they will rob the fans of probably the most awaited match up this season, everyone even tigers fan would want to see ennis v farah head to head, i couludn't wait for this game because of it, now there is a chance he will mis it...

I honeslty think he could make origin this year, he has been simply outstanding this year (clinton has been very good also) and his stats are equally impressive (he didn't play many minutes in round one and was injured round 2 and 3) Round 4 96 Metres, 12 Hitups, 35 Tackles, 0 Missed Round...

40-8, lockyer showed the Daily Astonisher jounros that they have no clue and why he is the best 5/8 in the game, on fire tonight, was brilliant, hunt was brilliant and should be the australian fullback (slater hasn't done much this year, hunt has been awesome), Wallace back to form, McCollough...

I scored 1124 points on courier mail fantasy league this week, the leagues top score was 1224, stagg has an average of 88 points and he is my captain, if he played I could of got close to 1300 and got the $500 weekly prize :( and beat 25,000 others while i'm at it,

David Stagg 102 metres gained 3 offloads 6 hit ups 43 tackles 1 missed tackle 1 line break 1 try. Andrew Ryan 38 metres 0 offloads 6 hitups 2 missed tackles 29 metres Stagg made most metres, patten 2nd at 99, hazem 3rd at 97, rest were under 90. Other players. Hannat made 41...

BULLDOGS import Brett Kimmorley has a new shadow at training sessions, with Belmore wonderboy Ben Barba ordered to match Noddy in every aspect of their pre-season workouts. Be it sprints, weights, ballwork or outrigger canoes, the budding NRL star has been told to match it with the man whose...

BULLDOGS fullback Luke Patten remains confident he'll be fit for the start of next year's NRL season, despite undergoing back surgery last week. The 28-year-old spent three days in hospital in a bid to eradicate the problem that ruined his 2008 season. Patten played just seven NRL games...

So guys, the result is now obvious we have a Melbourne V Manly Grand Final re-match :( So far, by the looks of things, white may be suspended and or crocker / cronk (unlikely for crocker/cronk though) I honestly think with Cam Smith, Brett White, Ryan Hoffman, all out of the team...

THIS is the image that proves money can't buy everything. Hobbling along yesterday in a back street in Toulon, runaway Bulldog Sonny Bill Williams did his best to put on a brave face despite nursing a busted leg. After turning his back on the NRL for the riches of French rugby, league's most...

I’m not apologising for any of this. But for Friday night I hereby grant Paul Gallen for one-week only the Official Kennel Free Pass. That means whatever he wants to do, for one night only it is totally OK. Any dirty play that he’s managed in the past and any new tricks he may have, go for it...

3 - Utai, he's awesome 2 - Idris, great debut 1 - Hazem, was good at fullback Special mention to Russel Replay Smith.

Written by a kennel favorite.

Who do you guys think is the most respected CURRENT player at the club OFF the field? For me I can't split between Hazem and Patten (ryan a close 2nd) What's you're thoughts? Roberts is the player most feared player off the field cause can unleash his muscles on people

lol manly got owned by souffs.

Is it just me or does somebody else get the idea that now they're playing nice with the dogs until September 6 when his house sells so that by time it's sold They'll have nothing to seize and he can start playing again while the dogs will now have nothing to seize of any value. It's adds up I...

Honestly, This is a guy we need, He's fast and tall, a Perfect modern day winger. He has what were missing int he back line, Height and speed. SIGN HIM UP...

All bench got 5, as did emelio, millard and nanai. Hughes highest ratings at 7. Hazem and barba only two in backline with a 6. halves with a 6 props at 5.5 avg

I don't need to say anymore than that.

Honestly can we just forfeit the next few games? Just a question what happens if the bulldogs forfeit in a away game, like the other team won't get a crowd and they'll lose heaps on money won't they??? How does a forfeit work?

This is basically a team not picked on skill but on reliability, and how good they are as people. They should have been around for a farily long time and are not sooks / grubs. This my list what would be yours? 1 Brett Hodgson 2 Hazem 3 Tate 4 Monahagn 5 Best 6 Locky 7 Prince 8 Civo 9 buderus...

Honestly, There's no way that would be the case. Dan carter considered probably the best rugby player in the world gets a million a season, As if sonny bill who is a convert is going to get 500k more than the dan carter. and SBW doesn't have that profile in france, he's a virtual...

LOL, he kept saying bulldogs this and that are terrible without SBW not giving a mention to any of the other injured players, someone needs to tell that idiot that the dogs have something like 15-20 injured players. If they had them all and SBW was injured, they wouldn't be losing like this, In...

By a St George side with 9 players out, dogs had 11 players out against a near full strength storm at home. SO WHY THE FCUK is all this negativity about sacking and unacceptable and rubbish being posted. If the benchmark team struggled without 9 players than a $3 million team coming 13th...

I don't know about you guys but it seems to me melbourne are just so lucky with there run of injuries they hardly have any key players like 7 - 9 - 1 who are out for extended periods and most of there players for that matter what a lucky team doctor tbh. is this just me? or do you people see...

Hey to all, its coming origin time soon, so I suggest that admins should perhaps maybe make a temporary State of Origin section in the forums so we can have dedicated threads for origns just a 9-12 week thread to discuss origin, Just my thoughts I don't know what you guys think. p.s Admins...
