Jordan Periera is off contract the end of this season... #justsaying

We should have already been on the phone to his manager making enquiries.

...

Kicking that ball into the crowd... isn't that meant to be a penalty for time wasting?

How's the consistency ... Brett Morris does that on Thursday night and gets sinbinned.

Thurston does it and has nothing to answer for.

Keep an eye on the Dragons winger on Lafai's side (Jordan Pereria). Can play fullback, wing and centre. Top try scorer in the NSW Cup.
Reminds me a lot of Jorge Taufua, except he can take a high ball. Moves really nicely if given space.


Correct me if I'm wrong but if a player is KO'd on field, aren't the excluded from the next weeks game.

Nofoaluma, Garner and Farah all knocked out tonight.

I know they have to undergo a neurological assessment if they have more than 2 concussions in a season (Farah and Nofo do).



Farah was sleeping on the job!
Good call on Jordan very good

I totally agree. Don’t be surprised if Matt Scott and/or Scott Bolton pull the pin as well
Bolton might be in prison and therefore have no choice... depending on the results of his case in August.

The entire Cowboys side just come across as "complacent", and it's sad that Thurstons legacy will be remembered for this season.

Taumalolo has been disappointing, Thurston is broken, and even your backs looks like they can't be bothered.

Maybe Cowboys need a cleanout, although re Taumalolo it's like he secured his future then fell out of form.

After watching the cowboys last night it’s pretty clear that they are in way worse trouble than us,with the roster that they have they are playing like busteds yet there is very little media coverage of their woes.The media and a lot of other fan bases are death riding the dogs.The NRL is a basket case and we are a symptom of the corruption and bias.We are a foundation club if we aren’t healthy the games not healthy.Fuck You Todd and all your talk the game up bullshit.

Start a rumour thread.
I am hearing from a very credible source that Periera has done a 10 year 10 million dollar deal with the Roosters to play of the bench.

Thurston definitely gone a season too long unfortunately

Have been saying the same thing. If it was not for the fact that he had to play this year to qualify for his testimonial would he have gone on after the problems he suffered last year? Game was confirmed at the end of the season last year but had been in the pipeline prior.

Individually, their achievements already have them certain to be future Immortals of the game, however, collectively, their resume` reads as 657 club games, 59 Origins, 89 Tests, 10 All-Star appearances, 6 Dally M Medals, 5 Wally Lewis Medals, four NRL Grand Final wins and 2 World Cups, records that are likely never to be matched by a Queensland hooker and five-eight in the same generation.

Both players’ dedication to Rugby League is matched only by their dedication to giving back to the community so both men are thrilled to be able to support these deserving charities with a portion of ticket sales being donated to all three charities.

Cameron Smith is so much better than Thurston over their careers. The Cowboys underachieved for so many years.

Suprise Suprise ... Storm get a really soft call on a "supposed" late hit by Blair on Bromwich (who stayed down and milked it).

And another penalty right in front to get Storm 6 points ahead with 4 minutes to go.

And now Warriors get ball back, blatant block by Munster on the high ball, and no penalty (should have been penalty 20m out to Warriors).

And ref finally gives Warriors penalty with 30 seconds to go and the game over.

and Storm get the ball back and it's game over.

Warriors fans should be really pissed about this one... what a joke.
