He knows he made a mistake

Who is to say other clubs didn't find it? It doesn't take a recruiting genius to see a generational talent. It would be ridiculously naive to think multiple clubs won't uncover this gem, but there is just one gem, and so just one club will reap this benefit. And in all likelihood the gem is...

I think this is exactly right, it's really for the exceptional talent you want to entice over. But this makes it all the worse, because this will happen only once or twice or so a decade, which means 1 or 2 clubs will gain a salary cap benefit that all the other clubs won't. It's a really bad...

I was specifically thinking of one Joseph Sua'ali'i

I wouldn't be at all surprised if the idea didn't come from Uncle Nick, who had a whisper in Lord PVL's ear

Yep, we could be on TRACK for a good season 😉

Definitely not, it was my first thought too. Agreed, I think it's tragic and feel sorry for the kid and the family. But at the same time, there's this thing called consequences for actions - if you weren't out breaking the law at 3am you'd be alive today. Both statements are true, and neither...

One try in a whole game, and the team that scores it doesn't win :rofl Pretty sure we've solved the mystery of why nobody is watching Union

So, quoting Santa who was quoting FoxSports; "Another issue for Brisbane will be replacing representative stars Thomas Flegler and Herbie Farnworth, who were crucial to their charge to the 2023 decider" What do people think of this? Is the word 'crucial' an overstatment?

Exactly what I was going to say, tries, and even line breaks, are exciting because they happen reasonably infrequently but still often enough to keep you interested/entertained/engaged. I'm a born and bred South Aussie, lived here all my life, and grew up loving and playing AFL. But the core of...

Maybe he was afraid if he wore white shoes a former player might jump out and stomp on them?

Maybe it's just different people attaching different meanings to the same sentence. In my mind, if you have 2 offers on the table 1 to stay with the current club who is more successful, proven record of helping players gain rep honours, but is for less money - and the other offer is from a less...

At first I thought you'd missed out a word there; gun rower? What, front? Or second? Then I realised you actually meant rower LOL

Just because some dimwit makes it up, and it kinda catches on primarily due to the overall dimwittery of the public, that doesn't make it right. I agree with you though on 'fark me', my mistake, I was trying to express the level of my frustration without being a total potty mouth; next time...

100% not having a crack at you @ivanhungryjak as I know you didn't start this stupidity, but fark me I hate that ridiculous expression. When you go to the barber and have your hair cut, you have had a haircut. When you take a reduction to your pay, you have had a pay cut. It's really not that hard.

Hmmm, there may be a reason for that 😉

Not gonna lie, the first part of that sentence had me going!

No way, not possible, as I have it on VERY good authority that JAC is the fastest human on the planet (source: Phil Gould)

A house would be a much wiser decision than a car, no doubt, but I wouldn't say "I hope" either way I simply don't care enough

Let them prove otherwise 😉
