“In a perfect world I wouldn’t have experienced that because I would still be at Canberra. I would never have left there because I loved the club that much – and still do. But it’s not a perfect world, is it?”

I’m developing an App that requires a responsible adult to click approve before the client goes to the toilet or has a drink.

If only I’d developed it when Carney was at the Raiders.

How troubled NRL star Todd Carney overhauled his scandalous public image... as he prepares to become a father for the first time

Todd Carney made headlines for all the wrong reasons in 2014 when he was sacked mid-season by the Cronulla Sharks following his infamous 'bubbler' incident.

But despite having his promising career shattered by a drunken mistake, Todd has managed to turn it all around - and he's now happier than ever and expecting his first child with his fiancée, ex-Married At First Sight bride Susie Bradley.

Former Canberra Raiders winger Sandor Earl has announced his retirement from rugby league

Sandor Earl has announced his NRL retirement after a decade-long career that included a four-year ban for performance-enhancing drug offences. The 31-year-old was not offered a new deal by the Storm for 2021.

"I'll be hanging up the boots," he said. "It's been a dream come true, it's what I dedicated my whole life to. I've been really proud, even taking into consideration the roller coaster ride it's been full of adversity, I'm really proud of what I've achieved."

Carney has a Prima Donna attitude in a bogun wannabe body.

He loves to help people out when the media knows about it, but he moves on when the ongoing role becomes a mundane task.

He still looks absolutely stunning. Everytime I see him I melt. His starry eyes, his biceps, his chest of pure granite. He still owns my heart.

Damn you, Suzy. You distract him every time he looks my way.

Tweed Seagulls have announced the signing of JJ Collins.

Tweed Seagulls sign former Canberra Raiders forward JJ Collins

Canberra Raiders forward JJ Collins's departure due to the NRL shut down earlier in the year has landed him back at home on the Gold Coast.

JJ found that he needed to find a different avenue to provide for his family and develop his career outside of Rugby League. With the Intrust Super Cup back on and firing, what better club than the Tweed Seagulls to balance family, work and our great game.

He started his journey at the famed rugby league school Keebra Park State High where he won a Schoolboy title. The Wests Tigers recognised his talents, which meant straight after his schooling he relocated to Sydney. He was nothing short of exceptional in his run through the Holden Cup. Such is his talent, JJ represented the 2016 Junior Kangaroos in a triumphant effort.

Since making his debut in 2016, he now has 16 NRL appearances under his belt playing for the Tigers, Knights and Raiders.

Given that front-rowers tend to mature a bit later, there's no telling just how far he will go and what he could bring to the Club.

An aggressive ball runner, the signing of Collins only strengthens our season prospects. His NRL experience, dedication and training mentality will make him a valuable member of our squad.

Image good point Cranky. As an Alumni. She would have gotten honours, if she had any honour in the first place.

I’m pretty sure Carney has compromising photos of Weidler, Dean Richie and the Mole as they repeatedly pen Carney puff pieces or artificial good news stories.

Gee bit of a comedown for Germ, from ESL to group nine. I think he was just desperate to get out of the UK. He doesn’t strike me as the sort of bloke who would do lockdown well.
