NEWS NRL 2022 is go

Just watched the Jordan pareira (spelling?) Interview.... wow..... what an impressive young man. Was "meh" about the club signing him but that interview made me happy he's at the club. Breath of fresh air. Grateful, humble, honest, motivated. He seems to have the opposite personality of the "superstar" juniors we've had in recent years, and look where that got us. He will be lucky to jag a spot but he will certainly make the "superstars" stfu and be grateful for the opportunity they have in the nrl and at the broncos

Just watched the interview, he is really very well spoken and comes across like a real good fella. Hope he makes first grade.
 
Yeh his speed at answering questions and the lack of umms and ahh s between sentences suggested to me someone who is pretty quick thinking on his feet. Hope it translates to footy smarts on the field. Good luck to him, love his pragmatic outlook on the life of a footy player.

He seemed like a well balanced kid to me. Your comment, though, is more of an indictment on the Australian education system that we are, as a nation, verbally hamstrung.

An interesting observation. Our pollies should be held responsible for this. Not least for the way their voice coaches teach them to insert that damned "eh", no it's more of a low toned 'uh' in-between words in an attempt to slow their cadence down and give their brains time to think. One of the few who refrain from this hideous form of communication is that Andrews fella in Victoria. He speaks in a regular tone (most of the time).

It goes back way further than that, at least 70 years. Maybe dating back to dropping "art of speech" as a school subject in the fifties.

It has something to do with the way the accent evolved to be a lazy mumble, with little lip movement. It's compounded by some kind of deep set lack of confidence with roots in our being a colony populated by Britain's lowest classes. It's not helped by a snowballing movement towards contrived shame as a national identity, peaking each year on Jan 25.

Australia needs mass therapy and mandatory elocution lessons.
 
It's moments like this you need

Sorry in what way is our national shame contrived??
 
When was the last time we played the storm once in a season? Lol... yep "draw" is not the right word for what the nrl do, that would imply randomness>decreases bias and manipulation. If the nrl truly wanted a draw why aren't they getting everyone to play once then draw the rest of the games out of a hat. Ffs that is a DRAW, you literally draw it out if a hat! That would be fair!

We only played them once last year.

First time in 10 years.
 
Isaako is certainly built like a footballer, wonder if there has been work going on between the ears to improve his play also?
