2026 NRL General Discussion Thread

When it comes to Sexton and no one going after him I think it could be because he doesn't have an elite long kicking game... and by elite it's basically needing someone that has a huge boot.

The territory battle is so important nowadays because the refs basically don't call yardage penalties... so teams are needing halves that have a massive boot to flip the field position.

Hugo doesn't really do anything for rorters except pump it long... and they need him there to kick because Walker has a pop gun kick.

Sexton worked at dogs because all the long kicking was done through Burton... and is still done through Burton even though Galvin has the 7 jersey on. So he was there to organise and he provided short kicking... but even then short kicking isn't as valuable anymore because of the short dropout.

So halves need to have a long boot and the game management or contribute points... Sexton was only providing the game management, but a component of the game management is the kicking game, which he wasn't contributing with.

He'll probably kill it in the ESL and then turn that into a decent contract back in the NRL.

All junior halves coming through need to focus on being able to kick it long... you'll have a place in the game if you can kick it long and make your tackles
 
RCG’s wife must have been a bit upset

I'd be upset moving from the sunny GC to England.

Not to worry, a fine super forward that sadly the Broncos can't afford to re-sign is on the market. The Titans should jump on him.
 
Anybody see the ending of the final between St Helens and Leeds in the super league this morning. Holy shit.
 
Didn't really know where to put this, could have easily been in the right to bag stuff out thread, but here goes...

How ****ing annoying is Tiffany Salmond these days.. holy shit, the cringe she posts is unbelievable. Had to unfollow today..

We get it, you aren't on TV anymore. But holy ****ing tickets on yourself, you were a good on the eye sideline reporter once a fortnight, youd swear the way she speaks about herself she had 3 shows a week.

Anyways, thats my rant. Just sick of seeing more shit about her on my feed instead of Broncos celebrations I guess.

Never heard of her. Sideline reporting in what sport?

You gonna tell me you didn't watch a wahs game in 2024?

She was the sideline commentator for wahs games a couple years back, but didn't get re-hired or something for this season... so she's been all over twitter about it

*this all allegedly rumoured*

**There was talk of misbehaving with a certain member of the Fox Sports commentary team that most accept was the reason for it, despite both parties denying **

Great viewing, but she’s doubling down on her army of simps calling for her to get hired somewhere. It won’t work.
