Stupid question - but do you know if there is a way to send this to the relevant people? I know it could be sent to Kenty or someone, but I presume Ricky has already done that :D

Anybody can send this stuff into the NRL. If you go to the website under contact or get in touch. I complained about McGuire's eye gouge. In the Broncos game I thought he did a second one on Lodge. I sent an email noting the time/clock period that it occurred. I didn't expect them to reply but a few days later I got one saying the MRC had reviewed that footage and didn't consider it worth further review. Who really knows if they did?

Can't help but feel Manly were a little hard done by last night but I cast my mind back to when they played down here and I was trying to explain to my Manly supporting boss that their match winning try was offside. He was kind of sticking his fingers in his ears and going 'lalala' and laughing.

Monday's going to be tough, I really want that promotion.

Would those saying Jake T. deserved his binning also be of the mindset that Suli deserved a binning for his late shot on Croker in the first half last week?

One incident was significantly worse than the other, will let you decide which is which.

Agreed. On a linebreak with high try scoring probability Jake T’s is significantly worse Image

QRL have a 4 game minimum, regardless of the number of NRL games played. Couldn't find the eligibility rules for NSWRL.

I'm surprised it didn't happen earlier. Weirdly, Chambers is on the bench and Stimson is dropped. He didn't get any time last week, did he?

I thought it was minimum 8 games to play cup. That's why Dufty isn't allowed to play tomorrow

The spiral of silence refers to the idea that when people fail to speak, the price of speaking rises. As the price to speak rises, still fewer speak out, which further causes the price to rise, so that fewer people yet will speak out, until a whole culture or nation is silenced. This is what happened in Germany.

If you do not speak, you are not being neutral, but are contributing to the success of the thing you refuse to name and condemn.

What were the Parramatta players sniffing in that bag?

There's a Shaun Lane joke there somewhere and it's hilarious.

They're giving Smith too much time, marker defence not good enough. He'll carve them up if this continues.
