But why would seiibold take 2 up and coming 2nd rowers from brisbane to souths I'if he was coming to brisbane. Maybe he didn't work too hard to strike a deal with sua.

I thought wayne loved the broncos... why would he want to screw us.

to a degree, but I seriously struggle to find a decent front row pair and rotation out of whos available for Aust. Is Vaughn the only non available option that would challenge our ordinary front row? Can't think of anyone really missing out, which for me is a big part of why NZ beat us last...

Apart from Ryse Martin, and an ageing Greg Eastwood, the Bulldogs NRL players are in the main bit part fill ins, much like most of the Redcliffe NRL players. To me I don't see much difference in quality, but I feel like the NSW clubs get an advantage by being the same club as their NRL team...

Obviously its in the rules and allowable, but I've always been under the impression since we moved away from a reserve grade comp that you couldn't play in both intrust and then NRL. I understand when players are named in NRL but don't get on the field they can then play Intrust, but how does...

I think that just because the right hand does make contact shouldn't determine that he was using it to make a tackle. IMO his right hand contacts him because its in his running stride and thats it... Slater's whole body position is about driving with the left side of his body... slaters feet...

So what happened?? you saying the panel just ignored the directions given... exactly why a panel of players is shit.. how about a ref a player and some other person with a fucking brain to split the two.

Really... fmd does wayne go around and tuck them in at night as well...thats the lamest shit I've heard. Maybe St Wayne should sit them all down and tell the all about the realitys of the real world, and about being professional fucking footballers. Considering they're in their early 20s, do...

I don't blame the NRL as such in this because they are supposed to reamain at arms length from the so called independant judiciary panel of appointed players. I'm pissed at the panel who I think have let the game down badly here. The NRL can't do any more than appoint the judiciary panel...

The thing in this I find frustrating is that panel have either had their pants pulled down by a clever lawyer, which to me says the panel of ex footballers are out of their league dealing with the technical issues of the games laws, or they were swayed and let emotion get in the way because of...

the upside of broncos getting good at the wrestle is that it will be a sure fire way for the nrl to finally put a stop to it in game. Can't have it in the game if it helps the evil broncos

Yep, but i feel that macca is closer to extinction than evolution... a career of solid first grade hovering on mediocre but thats it imo. We need something fresh to come through, but don't know who or where that comes from.

Just a left field thought, but if Boyd went to centre, maybe Bird to fullback... would certainly justify his paypacket more if it worked.... doubt another year on the wing for Isaako is that bad an option... haven't really thought through the longer term implications of it all though.

Not specifically picking out Boyd, but at Bennetts presser it would have been nice if instead of saying he was happy with the effort, he could have said something along the lines of " the Broncos are a proud club with high standards, and at the moment we have players in the team that aren't...

I never want a rookie coach at the helm again... that includes kevvie for me. Don't know where that leaves us, but the henjak griffin era must never be repeated.

they may be close, but where would they all go... even if Bennett went to another club, are all these players going to be able to move in with him. It truly doesn't make sense to just up an leave.. have the shits for a while, get over it and move on.. long run the players only hurt themselves...

are you suggesting bringing back a reserve grade because the state league comps and clubs aren't up to developing players for NRL? otherwise whats the point. I agree that NYC is not the step into NRL, which is what I have posted.. Its the step into playing against hardened men in a decent...

I get you don't rate NYC, but it was never meant to be a replacement for reserve grade or state leagues, it was a development comp to nurture elite talent. If you don't consider a competition that brings together the elite u17 -20 talent in oz and NZ, training full time with an NRL club, and...

But the reality is the ISC has always been there and always has been the stepping stone into the NRL..in reality very few players would go from NYC to NRL they all spend time in the Intrust comps playing against men preparing for NRL. But there isn't a player in the NRL(apart from the few who...

It is a strong side but all of those players have come through the previous national 20s system in preparation to transition to ISC so premature to discredit the 20s system. Be interested to see the quality of our 20s team in afew years time without the benefit of a high level age comp leading...
