Tim Sheens is at the Origin of Canberra Raiders ripples Like a rock dropped in Lake Burley Griffin, ripples from the 1989 Green Machine are still being felt in State of Origin. The Raiders players that day have now coached 67 Origin matches. "I don't know what you could put it down to," Ricky Stuar...

I mean let's completely disregard the fact he's now playing career-best football, he's now the major strike weapon AND focal point of the Canberra Raiders attack, yeah sure... his best position is centre.

So was Laurie Daley's.

I honestly think you underestimate my ability to blend into the unwashed masses.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but doesn’t Samoa mean no Queensland?
Samoa, that's in QLD. Qlds everywhere.

Just like Toowoomba is in NSW. *cough cough* Peter Sterling

Are you suggesting I can afford dinner, pal?? On more than one meal a day, then? You're gonna be first up against the wall when the revolution comes, matey.

I have been to bankwest twice and imo it is easily a better view then canberra. Canberra has great atmosphere from the viking clap and horn of helmsdeep. But the incline is pretty average at canberra. Agreed. Canberra stadium the grandstand is too far back compared to the modern rugby league ground...

I loved BankWest Stadium. Particularly the bit where I paid $25 for a general admission ticket and then sat on the halfway line to watch the game from the $50 seats as nobody was there checking where I should be sitting... Good view of the game, decent food prices and pretty good facilities. Thumbs...

You just get your people to do it for you. It'd be the way forward, for sure, but no. We've just moved house and realised that all of our old furniture was .... deeply crap. I've spent months in furniture and homewares shops (though are still only halfway there). I'd be happy never stepping foot in...

It's an absolutely ludicrous suggestion, what "attacking options" does Starling provide that Hodgson or Havili (for that matter) don't??

Honestly, I'll just keep on with my process of going outside to check the sky colour everytime you tell me it's blue. They let you go outside? Look, that's not important. The important thing here is that I'm capable of getting outside if I really need to. Provided the ankle monitor is on Is that a ...

He’s already exceeded his target of 2 grand too, what a quality human being.

Absolutely he would have, no doubt in my mind.

I’m pretty sure there were Queensland players that didn’t sing it either, but we don’t care so much about **** like that

As long as Josh continues to play for the Raiders and Queensland, it doesn't bother me where his international allegiances lie.

Go with your heart, big fella.

The Rickman

Ricky SHOULDN'T replace Havili with Starling either. In a perfect game, if Starling plays he sits on the bench for 80min and Hodgson plays the whole thing, but if Havili is there he still gets minutes up the middle, and they're quality minutes too.

Sorry Fergus

I have a junk room I could convert into a games room... however it's full of junk.

Interesting article on news.com.au. Around the clubs in Sydney there were rumours that the national anthem boycott wasn’t well recieved by players and the higher management https://www.news.com.au/sport/former-origin-stars-bombshell-claim-over-anthem-boycott-axings/news-story/e3f03b0308e97319b1925a...

I think it's 3 in for the Lolo deal isn't it? Really you'd be paying 1.3+ for him if he hit the open market. So it's pretty quickly going to give a positive return. The other thing in favour of these deals is the rules around medical retirements and jobs post footy seem to be a bit more relaxed the...

He's literally one of the worst halfbacks on the list, and that's taking into account a number of second stringers listed. No question the standard of halves has dipped significantly over the decade, but that to me says even more about his level. We need a better halfback in order to win a premiers...

If Latrell Mitchell and Dylan Walker, the “form half of the comp” were seriously dropped from Origin for one poor game in Brisbane, then it sums up everything wrong with NSW and their culture in one foul swoop Doesn’t matter the rhetoric they spew out at us when they win, nothing has changed in twen...

Still think it’s a bad move.

Me too. We might be 2 years in, but still 8 to go. Plenty can go wrong in that time and it’s all in the player’s favour (as it should be)

The Rickman

Haha you guys don’t understand power rankings at all, do you? We absolutely deserve to be second right now behind the Storm (who I assume is first?) and if the Roosters are sixth that makes perfect sense too! They literally hadn’t won since they played us until the bulldogs game! I swear this forum...

It’s mind boggling for the dogs to even consider doing this on the year they finally get out of cap trouble

Like, they have the wooden spoon wrapped up this season and probably next, and they want to flush their cap back down the toilet?

The Rickman

I agree!!

Of course he would. Any elite player who is locked into an awful contract for the next five years and essentially the rest of their career would be mad not to
