Re: Weekes

Last year NSW Cup was being live streamed and Weekes was playing fullback for the Manly side. He made some great breaks with his pace, he caught the high ball ok but his defence was not a strong suit. Fast forward to the Raiders trial games and again his defence was not a strong suit. Now look to t...

Each episode covers one day in a relationship over many years. 13 episodes but of 26-30 minutes or so, so easy to binge. Formulaic in some ways, but I enjoyed it, and t...

The NRL website says that a club has 24-48 hours to respond to a notice of charge, which would have been issued on Saturday morning to the Raiders and Papalii. That means today is likely the cut off time for Papalii.
