What's this Paix to the Dolphins rumour? It would deal the Broncos a savage blow and almost certainly confirm that the Dolphins are in fact the dominant Brisbane team. The Broncos would be in crisis. I have also heard that Paix is training the house down in anticipation of the move to Redcl...

Crazy talk. Next thing you'll tell me is that this "team" is there to tell the other teams what to do, and have the power and ability to influence games. Oh and part of the "team" includes a mystery string-puller in a secret off-site location, and they watch everything, secretly tipping off...

To shreds, you say?

One of the worst injury-affected years we've had since the Spoon season, I can genuinely see why Kev didn't want to risk OUR BEST PLAYERS with a short turnaround, which is just exposing them to exponentially more injury risk. Jagging one game during Origin is not as important as our run home.

Training is very different to in-game situations. But regardless, same situation applies: Dropping them at training as well? Improve and stay in the lower grades until you get better. Safe hands at training but not in games? Play in the lower grades where the stakes are not as high until it...

He's not accepting the mediocrity, he is forced to accept the situation. Sailor should have been out of the team long ago, and Mariner should have gone to Q Cup to work on his handling. To do that, we'd call on our experienced depth like Hoeter and Pereira to hold the fort. But both are out for...

The money getting made is via legit gambling organisations... who then pay the NRL a % of the takings. This has 100% been Vlandys' main priority since getting the gig, his history was in horse racing which only exists as an avenue of gambling (would anyone watch it if you couldn't bet on it?)...

100% this is on injuries, not Kev. I don't care that the going wisdom is "next man up, they just have to do their job". If that truly was the case, get rid of the salary cap, all players are equal on paper and should be able to do an equal job should injuries occur. Which is, of course...

Journalist? You need to be semi literate and do some sort of leg work before you open your mouth. Parker is, like Tallis, a cheap salty opinion offerer.

Parker is full of shit regarding Cobbo not being injured. Trew confirmed that he is beat up. Not a mental thing this time, just physically fucked. Playing injured, needing to be needled. The bye has allowed him to go home and recuperate.

Not repeatedly. Otherwise they just go back to the first knock-on anyway. They are supposed to wait a few minutes before dropping it, preferably early in the tackle count with no pressure on them. That way they are forced to defend constantly and get fatigued super fast, so idiots (fans and the...

I suspect it's not a dig just at Slater personally, I'd say it's more to do with Qld's tactics in the past. Nate Myles repeatedly tackling Farah by leading with the top of his head comes to mind.

NSWRL like their thugs.

IIRC, Crighton wasn't even properly signed at the start of last year. They had him tacked on as a development player or something because the NRL wouldn't let them register the proper contract because they'd be over the cap if doing so. But then, somehow, because of "mental health" reasons he...

The real Tristan Sailor stood up.... and spoiler alert... it was the same guy all along.

Past the horizontal. Send off and 6 weeks on the sideline.

Wait, he's the coach's son? How has this not been made public?

The amount of times I read your shit and just think " 'Kay man, whatever..." (with an eye roll), and then see the username. Well chosen, bravo.

I can picture them all sitting in a little circle braiding each other's hair, with Taupau giving the others instructions in a motherly fashion.

I was fucking pissed after the game, but looking back, it's no real shock. The backup players aren't NRL starters for a reason. If they didn't have those lapses and/or errors in them, they'd be starting for us or another club. We're short on depth everywhere, but it's not just the injuries to...
