Patty is in his 5th year with 69 games for a donut. Twal notched his 110th game. Kind of crazy, especially Patty who is up there as a player and has probably played more minutes than Twal lol.
think he is counting on the yearly patty nudie run so probably wont get much encouragement.
Patty just using it as an excuse to get the rig out
Hopefully he drops everything that comes his way and shits his pants.Chicken Sandwich Boy is making his debut for the Dogs this afternoon
Most likely will be kept out of the fire in the first half by Ciraldo.
He looked like he was on a treadmill when he came on and Pangai outran him chasing Averillo as a back up

Who was it here who said the judiciary isn't influenced by the NRL?
Josh Reynolds got no charge for yelling BS at Atkins, Abdo came out in the media and asked the MRC to review it. He then copper a grade 1 charge.
NRL boss’s extraordinary request over fan favourite’s abusive act
The NRL star thought he got away with his crime, however his luck was about to change.
Abdo’s decision to step in marks the first time he or any member of the ARL Commission have used their power to refer matters for further inspection after it was introduced last March. The rule was used by Newcastle earlier this year when they wanted an Isaiah Papali’i hit on Jack Johns sent for further review. “There is a process under the judiciary rules that allows the board and CEO of a club or game to ask for the match review committee to further review an incident,” NRL head of football Graham Annesley said.
Tbh, I don't mind it here...swearing directly at the Ref is a bad look for the game. I'll take issue if they take an interest in tackles etc.Who was it here who said the judiciary isn't influenced by the NRL?

Josh Reynolds history of being a complete fuckstick aside......
He copped a fine, not a week off.

I believe the only way around this would be put a stop clock from when the ball leaves the player (kickin, passing) and when contact is made.NRL clarify kick pressure penalties after Round 9 controversy
Two penalties for tackles on kickers saw fans up in arms last weekend.
"There has been a view expressed that the NRL and the referees have gone overboard with the protection of kickers, and this goes right back to a directive that came from the [ARL] commission," Annesley said.
"You can see this is from July 2021, and it talks about protecting kickers. There are a few key points to come out of this which I've tried to summarise in terms of what do we mean when we talk about protecting kickers?
"What it really comes down to is there are four things the referees are really looking for.
"One is whether it's late or not, and contact with kickers after the ball has been kicked won't always be deemed to be late, the second one is high obviously, if there is contact with the head or neck, everyone knows that contact with the head or neck is a no-no these days, so that's another factor they look for.
"[In the Hess on Hynes example] everyone talks about "that's not late, he's already committed to the tackle", but again, think about the four factors. It's obviously not high in this case, but have a look at the risk of injury, but also the vulnerability. Hynes has both point off the ground [when Hess makes contact]. It's around the waist, but he is off balance and he lands heavily on the ground," Annesley said

This is just ridiculous. By definition, any player at any time they are tackled are vulnerable. It also allows legitimately good, hard LEGAL hits to be penalised and allows the ref to use 'discretion' to legitimise penalising great tackles.
Just leave the game alone!
I like the bit where Atkins thought he was yelling at his kids for a moment, was about to say, “I’m not talking to you ever again”!
