Not too bad despite the puzzling Rorters scheduling. At least the Panfers game is a Saturday instead of a Monday so we should be able to get a decent size raiders crowd up for it.

IMO Central Coast bears are the first team to be added. I don't think relocating a team will work - it didn't work with the Northern Eagles so why would it work with the Sharks? Rugby league lost a lot of fans when the bears dissolved, I have a few mates who were bears supporters and they haven't be...

Unbelievable

- maybe they used the 'chewbacca defence'.

The Sharks do the right thing and sack him, the NRL deregisters him all in an attempt to get these grubs out of the game and then the court backflips with a triple pike and lets him off.

Why don't they just let kids under 15 in for free?

My little brother used to play for valley dragons but doesn't anymore so doesn't get free "junior player" entry anymore - I'm sure if he got free entry to every home game he would nag the crap out of my dad to take him to every home game.

Wasn't a bad game, though the English forwards let them down badly in the second half. Sure Burgess scored a few good tries running good angles but their defense in the second half was terrible. Australia kept aiming straight behind the ruck and continually made 40 metres from three or four tackles ...

Quite often after a player signs with another club mid season their opportunities in the first grade squad dry up. I'm not trying to defend Flanagan, but simply referring to stats of games played isn't really a fair assessment of this situation. As stated previously I was disappointed with how he pl...

IMO its a really poor strategy by the AFL. It failed when the rugby union did it. They don't realise that fans support the game not the player. Players come and go yet the clubs and the game is what captivates the fans. I saw an interview with Osbourne last night he said he wasn't concerned because ...

Flanagan played most of his season at SL pretty badly injured , much like Tongue did in first grade. This has been mentioned before. What was the injury? Why didn't he instead opt to sit on the sidelines and fix the injury and hope to come back late in the season? Campo played injured but is regard...

We have the worst hooker and half in the comp no matter who we pick (yes I rate Waddell, but you simply can't compare him to any other starting hooker, not even most other bench hooker due to inexperience and being completely unproven). Once again Campese will be forced to organise as a halfback, o...

I've been saying for over 12 months now that Tongue needs to learn the Hooker craft because IMO our team is better balanced with him starting there, especially with the great backrow we have. Miller/Harrison/TLL/Thurling - then having Galea/Picker/Thompson on the bench so we have two utilities on th...

Galea covers backrow and centre . That is the biggest muth sorry. It's pretty much the same as saying Jason Croker or Ruben Wiki cover centre if we had have signed them two years ago.

Now I'm no economist but it seems to me the main selling point of the soccer world cup is how much money it would generate.

We already have very little space left in our cap yet you think signing a problematic player with a history of poor off field behaviour, not very good form and zero loyalty is a wise investment.

Do out of court settlements count towards our salary cap?

Sorry to play devils advocate but if this were any other team the GH would be jumping to conclusions, making absurd allegations about cover ups, yet because its a Raiders player everybody is firmly of the belief that everything is sweet.

saw this coming as soon as smith signed with the club. He seems to have a "no dickeads" policy at his clubs so getting rid of mason must have been first on his list. You're full of ****, Carney was officially signed after Smith joined them :P IMO Mason has been unfairly treated this year....

I think it has merit, but at this stage of JT's career I think he really wants another premiership and we need to prove to him that we are likely to provide him with a chance to get one.

One reason there were fewer penalties is because of lenient officialling just like in Origin. I noticed markers from both sides often not standing square or players near the ruck not retiring the full 10 but rarely was it penalised.

Another thing that irks me is why does he have a "H" in his name. Shouldn't it be Jonathon? For this reason alone we shouldn't sign him.
