I am 100% not writing this year off but this year will certainly set us up for a hell of a year next year I believe. We have players coming off contract but not until the end of next year. The injuries will allow us to be confident in our entire squad. 1 more year of development into te kura...

Did Walters say anything about carrying a back on the bench moving forward? I'm guessing the high standard nrl journalists didn't think to ask a question that is not controversy hunting but something fans would like to know....

Every single game we have lost weve had a back or half go down. Enough is enough. Yes it isnt the best but we almost guarantee a loss with 1 injury to any of 7 players. We probably wouldn't have won any of the games if we did replace back with a back but guarantee we would have had a better...

We've lost 3 games this year... 1 we lost a 2nd rower in the 1st 5 mins 1 we lost our fullback in the 1st 5 mins 1 we lost out halfback at half time Not saying we would have won without those situations but they certainly contributed. Oates solves them as well as possible outside of having...

Of course, but he was 18th man on the weekend. 1 injury away in the forward pack. He shouldn't be 18th man with us, and will not be replacing any middles, just the edges. So at best, a sideways career move, just to a better side. Then again, this could be one of the rare times that the...

Cowboys have officially released jetski. I have not seen much of him. Very meh about this. Could be great money ball for an 18th-22nd man option I hope he isn't an automatic top 17 guy, but he was pretty regular at the Cowboys so my worry is he was promised something....

I've been to all the Sydney teams, Newcastle, Canberra, redcliffe ("away") and the titans away games and I can tell you without a doubt the worst are penriff. When I say worst I mean, they have the footy IQ of a wall. I actually heard a conversation where 2 guys were arguing about which tackle...

I just wanted to note something... The dolphins have faced the Titans in their 1st game without tino, the Broncos without Reynolds, haas, etc etc etc etc, the eels without moses, and are gonna face the knights in their 1st game without ponga and manly in their 1st game without DCE and...

I thought where he was holding it might be his AC joint, but then they tested pec. I think that's what flegler has at the dolefins so can be a real week to week injury. I didn't see the fall/how he injured it but falling/impact with their arm tucked into their body is the typical mechanism for...

Panfers fans are the gift that keep on giving. Their fear of the broncos putting 80 mins together is almost palpable (this word means it is so intense you can almost physically feel it). Imagine being a fan of the wannabe-gangstas, winning 3 premierships in a row, and you fans are STILL that...

Can't believe teams are kicking short 90% of the time now. Would ove to see the stats on tries scored off the set after a short vs long drop out. The 1st tackle is hard enough to defend (eg us in gf) with the other team able to attack the ball and stak numbers, but I reckon it throws out the...

There are about 16 other clubs that would have found a way out of his contracts. From memory he was even re-signed on good faith. Even if he did just do it bcos it was his right, that STILL makes it poor form that he was bitter at the club. Why? They could have EASILY shafted him. At the end of...

Is cobbo out? I didn't hear kevvie talk about him in the press conference. Mam sounds like he's out and madden looked like he won't be back for a while. I think everyone is forgetting about Josh rogers. Running 5/8th who can run, defend and kick. Not the flashiest or the best but swap...

Feel sorry for madden. Hope it's not pec bcos he was proving everyone wrong with his last 2 performances. Was actually thinking 50 mins in that with arey always limping Penrith and storms grubby tactics, and him probably being able to cover hooker for 20 mins I would honestly consider him for a...

Did he pay for the clubs medical bills without an inch given the other way? Bcos that's what it would take for him to have a leg to stand on in being pissed at the club. The club at that time did a lot of things wrong but ffs if there was 1 player who had no right to be pissed at the club it was...

When you see this team put it together for 20 mins you realise.... there is no team that can go with us if we put 80 mins together and are injury free. Not well played tonight but **** we have some talent and are well coached.. Ps. No team includes Penrith (terrible 60 mins in gf and we still...

The kick in behind has been begging all game. Thought the same.

Perhaps the worst refereeing performance I've seen out of the 20 games I've seen this year. Apis try was a try but outside of that every bad decision has gone against us.

I am huge on honouring our service men and women, but I do feel like the nrl and afl are milking it too much these days. I hope there is a large amount of earnings from the weekend going towards fallen service peoples families or something similar

Agreed. If I had to pick a 2nd team (dont agree with that approach though) it'd be the wests tigers. The wests part of the fan base are actually quite good and reasonable, even listened to a wests podcast this week for a game preview and it was very, very balanced. Of course their are always...
