Aussies robbed of an LBW shout Umpire's call on impact should be able to be overruled if the ball is ******** smashing middle stump.

Mooney had a bit of a shaky start but he’s finding the pace now Looks NRL ready Looks good to me. He's just not used to being hit hard in tackles, looks like he expects to just crash over them lol.

Re: 2023 State of Origin III - Blues v Maroons

I think Luai had to go . They had plenty of ball in games 1 and 2 and he failed to turn it in to points. That's your job as a half, can't remember him coming up with too many decent kicks either. Walker is the best left side option at coming up with points, he's got a great passing game so i underst...

I don't get it. The Poms were attempting to do the same, unsuccessfully. But because the Aussies copied them, but were successful, it's against the spirit of the game? Blatant hypocrisy. The one against Marnus? completely different scenario as he's batting out of his crease and therefore is fair ga...

Re: 2023 Rd 19 v Dragons: Teams and Previews *Teams p1*

Thought Starling was actually better against the titans, put Tapine in to space a couple of times with a nicely timed pass and think there was another occasion too.
needs to make that the norm though as Puru playing 20-30 minutes at 9 and then 20-30 at lock forward probably gives us better balance

Only issue could be someone like Tapine expecting the same sort of contract, but then if we upgrade him and give him the captaincy he probably gets an upgrade to something similar anyway

Crowd booing at the Bairstow dismissal. It was totally legit. They should be booing Bairstow for walking out of his crease like that.
