We have already been told by TG on numerous occasions that the game NEEDS a side in Melbourne to grow the game. We NEED to get rid of a Sydney based club.Yeha mate, it goes back further than that unfortunately and even worse, its unlikely to change any time soon.
The NRL will continue giving them a leg up to try and gain market share against AFL down in VIC.
The difference to an active or passive offside is pretty evident and in soccer you never hear the referee call them out he just blows the whistle. In our game of League I wonder whether or not they believe they are playing an advantage by calling out rather than blowing the whistle....I think they shouldn't call them offside at all. If they're offside, see if they impact the play and if they do, blow a penalty...
He had limited minutes again. Did well considering the situationI didn't see yesterdays game (was at golf) saw result and refused to watch a replay there after. How did Chris Smith go?

The NRL will NEVER be a threat to AFL in Victoria...basically the only people who follow Melbourne Storm are ex pat NSW......
We should play him at lock. His size, and footwork at the line, combined with his pace for a big bloke, would cause all sorts of problems for tiring forwards, and allow guys like Meaney to sniff about in defence.Chris needs more minutes...better forward than most in the starting line up.
Hence my initial post, he is a better player than Elliot in my eyes, should see more minutes.We should play him at lock.

Elliot got bitch slapped on Sunday.Hence my initial post, he is a better player than Elliot in my eyes, should see more minutes.
I agree that short term, while Harper finds his feet in reserves, this is the best option for the team. CHN has more pace and has played centre plenty for Penrith and I think it would make the team a lot better balanced and dangerous. Smith could then start on an edge and RFM should be on the bench.IMHO a forward needs to go to center to replace Dutchy, to put some starch in the defense there , and I can only think of either Chn or Chris Smith, neither will probably score a try but at least might just stop 1 or 2.
He is rubbish. Offers nothing and hyped up by the Kennel. Similar to the Kane Cleal situation we had here.Did Chris smith get any game time today..?
Useless. Should never see Nrl ever again
Poor man’s ElliotNeither here nor there about him. Will be another in the long long line of ehhhh we have had on our squad.
Too good for reserve grade not good enough for NRL.Neither here nor there about him. Will be another in the long long line of ehhhh we have had on our squad.
