Who wrote that shit? Norman was an epic fail last year

In the back half of the season his form was rubbish, but for the first half, I recall a lot of people being impressed.

So because one example where two halfbacks in a combination that didn't work(it was more of Langer's own performance then the actual combination that had more reason why it didnt work) that means Prince and Wallace shouldn't be together, sorry to say but Langer's combination with another halfback wasn't just with Stuart at test level, Kevin Walters was very much a halfback put into 5/8th to cover Lewis's injury absence and as a longterm replacement for him who I dare say combined very well with Langer at the Broncos.

Don't get me wrong I can see there are valid arguments for having different style halves but I don't think you can dismiss having both Prince and Wallace there just because of one instance where it didn't work in the history of Rugby League when there have been other examples where it has worked.

Indeed though If I'm not mistaken Wallace was doing extremely well too on our own POTS vote, both you could argue dived pretty hard, I thought Hunt was probably the best of the 3 during our slump. I'll be honest I'm still not sold on a rock solid combination in the halves for round 1, I'm interested to see who really stands out in the following 2 trials before making up my mind as to who I would like to be there, about the only certainty IMO is Prince, the other is well up for grabs.

Yes, because the game of rugby league in 2013 is played exactly the same as it was in 1990. Mike Colman says some absolutely stupid shit sometimes.

Funniest one I read was Paul Kent informing ASADA about a product called hypertronin and from his info they are going to ban it.

Gentlemen...

Fourex, I suspect Macca is being rested for two reasons. Firstly, he's already assured of the starting spot come Round 1. Also, he didn't resume full training until a little after the majority as he was recovering from shoulder surgery - I suspect Hook wants him to catch up a bit more before he throws him back into the mix.

does this game usually sell out? i see tickets are only available at the gate now, should of thought that one through a little better - would i need to get there really early to avoid missing out? bit of a trek to get there and be turned away.

Yeah, trials usually go close to selling out. Try calling and asking if they can hold a ticket.
