    NRL Player Movements & Rumours

    Exactly right. From a team perspective, suck shit you scum storm. From a personal/individual perspective, I've got nothing against Paps and I feel sorry for him if this is a career ender

    I always thought Gallop did OK In hindsight, he was better than OK How on earth do they keep finding guys worse than the last guy? And just when you think it's impossible, they unearth Lord VLando FMD What's worse is PVL isn't even the CEO but he has installed himself as that He is without...

    NEWS Betting adds more entertainment to rugby league’: Inside V’landys’ Vegas plan

    I just don't bother anymore. I turn the TV on when the players are taking the field, make a coffee/snack at half time, and turn the TV off again when the siren sounds. I won't watch anything that's not actual game time anymore.

    NEWS Reece Walsh's Magic Round performance proves once again he's ready for State of Origin

    Of course they can Ponga is not playing well, and is now playing weekly NRL in a different position, and to me that negates the pick and stick

    NEWS Betting adds more entertainment to rugby league’: Inside V’landys’ Vegas plan

    Taking the emotion etc out of it, that statement is simply not true. It might improve the experience for some, but it's definitely not a universal truth.

    NEWS Betting adds more entertainment to rugby league’: Inside V’landys’ Vegas plan

    Then I think you have a problem. But regardless, my experience is this.....my Brother in Law likes a flutter and got me into it a few years ago. It added absolutely zero enjoyment for me. Sometimes it took away enjoyment, and added stress and anxiety, due to losing. I stopped having a bet...

    POST GAME POST GAME [Round 8, 2023] Broncos vs Eels

    I feel dirty agreeing with @McHunt but he's right on here, if we are talking about on field refs. Yes from time to time they make a nuclear stuff up, but by and large they are rare. And I have lost count of the number of times they get something really tricky spot on at full speed and when the...

    OPINION Broncos are winning the 2023 NRL Premiership

    I disagree, the byes and the 2 free points simply distorts the ladder no matter how you look at it. The L column is no more important than the W column really, and you just have to read the table carefully and with a bit of nuance. Just look at Manly with 4 wins and a draw, sitting 2 spots...

    2023 State of Origin Discussion

    Apparently not LOL No, I certainly am not masochistic enough to watch 80 minutes of Titans each week, I just watch Kayo's 20 min recaps. I haven't seen what you have, but it makes sense as those important things you mentioned would not be in the recaps too much.

    2023 State of Origin Discussion

    Spot on. Which is why, in my view, you pick Welch but you don't pick Fifita. Of course at his best you want him, but how often is he at his best?

    POST GAME POST GAME [Round 8, 2023] Broncos vs Eels

    I think that's not the argument, the argument is really about what constitutes a hip drop. The most ridiculous thing, actually totally incomprehensible, was the Fox commentators saying that Ezra's and Payne's tackles were "identical". Fkn what? Are their eyes painted on? They were incredibly...

    POST GAME POST GAME [Round 8, 2023] Broncos vs Eels

    I know the commentating is as 1 sided anti Bronco as you can get, but they did call this one out at the time. Several comments about how that was a Bronco penalty, Eels just lucky to have the ball etc.

    OFFICIAL Kevvie Gets a Two Year Extension

    Count me in with the folks who NEVER have a problem streaming Kayo. If you have a decent internet service it's flawless. My internet is far from great, but it's good enough. I had too many outages on HFC so I moved to 4g, and I live down the bottom of a small hill and don't have great coverage...

    To each their own. They totally screwed this up, there's no doubt about that, but the reaction is over the top. I just don't see how it is offensive to do something in support of someone even though you stuff it up badly. It's offensive to come out and say something really horrible or nasty...

    Yes, that is spot on, they lied about it Obviously I wrote what I did before that news broke and I believed the Tigers claim I completely agree that lying about having it checked is the height of incompetence and more!

    The Wests Tigers ANZAC jersey situation is IMO the very definition of a storm in a tea cup, and is a classic example of the wrong focus this crazy PC world now has. The club tried to do the right thing, they are trying to show support and respect, but instead of gratitude they get complaints...

    PLAYER Selwyn Cobbo

    There was a LOT more to the post than that 1 sentence, like this; "I personally haven't seen anything from him that suggests to me that he will be a superstar but he also hasn't been diabolically bad and worthy of the kind of hate some here have for him." Very balanced

    Hmmm, so the truth is in fact a balanced view somewhere in the middle of the 2 extremes? Settle down now @HarryAllan7 we'll have none of that here
