    Wikipedia says: Australian Rugby League Hall of Fame honours players who have shown exceptional skill at rugby league, all-time great coaches and referees, and other major contributors to the game who are Australian. To date there are only thirty members of the hall of fame with the latest...

    TV rights and live games

    2 school nights will help with TV viewing numbers I guess. "Because of Queensland's entrenched parochialism, demonstrated by the bias to the northern teams (Broncos, Cowboys, Titans), as well as the Storm, Nine's Friday night game would have a Maroons flavour." Do TVs in QLD only work on a...

    MVP: Most Valuable player for [Round 18: Titans v Sea Eagles 2015]

    3 Stewart No explanation required 2 Taufua Not just for the 2 tries but the awesome hard yards every time we needed to get out of our danger zone. I've been one of the knockers you refer to Snake but I'm loving how he seems to have turned things around. With the Broncos game fresh in my memory...

    GAME DAY - Manly v Titans [Round 18, 2015]

    Typical that we get the rub of the green in a game like this. Next close one we will get shafted again and people will say how it all evens up.

    Ashley Taylor given permission to negotiate

    It seems Broncos might prefer he go to Sydney than Gold Coast - that way it will be easier for them to use the Ikin/Hannant/Barba/Milford "homesick" excuse in a few years when they need him back.

    Cam Smith's "multiple threads- only one declared"

    DISCLAIMER: Daily Telegraph article by Paul Kent Having got that out of the way, I think he makes some good points and must be given more credit than anyone else in the league media this week as he hasn't criticised 9 for airing Alex's opinion and hasn't made reference to Smith's"good...

    Cam Smith's "multiple threads- only one declared"

    Just because he might have legal options to get the money he needs from the NRL doesn't mean he can't acknowledge the assistance they have given him since the injury. If the NRL or Melbourne are liable for damages I can't begrudge him getting what he is entitled to, regardless of how much...

    Cam Smith's "multiple threads- only one declared"

    This was really noticeable in our game down there 3 or 4 weeks later. I have never seen so many players lifted in tackles. I really hope there are some good lawyers looking into Bellamy's tactics at the time and over the preceding 8-10yrs as well as the NRL's lack of interest in doing anything...

    The 11 - 1 penalty even up

    On Monday night on MMM Bill Harrigan was saying that Ben Cummins was doing a great job keeping the defence back 12-13m to allow for the player walking forward to play the ball and this way it all evens up and the defence is actually 10m back when the ball is played. He of course made no...

    Cam Smith's "multiple threads- only one declared"

    Yes but since then... The trouble is he is very smart about it and people who either have a passing interest or those with a vested interest in the image of the game (the broadcasters and the governing body) just don't see or don't care what he gets up to on the field. Basically only fans of...

    LiveBlog GAME DAY - Manly v Rabbitohs Rd 16, 2015 [1295890]

    I think what actually happened was that Orford dived on a loose ball on the ground (cleanly) only for the chasing Titans player to basically trip over him while he was still on the ground. Checcin somehow came up with a penalty against Orford for taking him out and they took the 2 from right in...

    Crushers

    You never see anyone come off injured after staying down and getting a penalty for one of these "crusher" tackles, let alone missing a game with a resulting injury. That tells me these constant penalties are a joke and easy to exploit. Penalise the Storm style actual crushers and let's just...

    Miss the 8 from here and it's your fault Manly

    Usually I hope for upsets and death ride top sides like Roosters, Souths and Dogs but this year I have been hoping they smash the lesser teams to keep them at the bottom and give us a chance to climb the ladder but it's just not happening. Byes for other teams won't stop us climbing the...

    Unlucky last...

    Without a lot of luck we don't beat the cheating purple scum at Brookie in Round 2. They had a try disallowed in the first half for no particular reason without a vidiot review then we went back to back to back for a 24 point turnaround. Then captain scum missed a fairly easy conversion in the...
