    Round 8: Dolphins vs Canberra

    Welcome to the tinfoil hat corner, NRL conspiracy talk should have its own thread.

    Round 7: Dolphins vs Melbourne

    An excellent game and great result. to be fair to Mat that Pap try was embarrassing. Josh was outstanding, I don't think anyone had a bad game and that is more important to me than one or two people having great games. Across the board consistency. Even Jack had a solid game with no howlers...

    If you are going to spew what James Graham et al says on the ByeRound at least have the decency to reference it instead of trying to pass it off as your own.

    Round 6: Dolphins vs Penrith

    I have to admit I was laughing. He played so well last week and actually had a good game this week but he didn't need to do anything just let it bounce dead as there was nobody chasing close enough to cause a problem but to spoon a kick back across the in goal well that would truly win Wanker of...

    Round 5: Dolphins vs Gold Coast Titans

    I was up north near Liverpool Saturday so just managed to catch up with everything Tino's sin bin was at best 50/50 i could argue it either way but think it was harsh. Rays sin bin was a first class joke. You see more powerful head contact when a player makes a mistake and the opposition rub...

    my understanding is they didn't actually offer him anything. the CBA gives the current club 10 days to make a counter offer so they never actually gave him an offer as they were waiting to see what came in as he wasn't actually looking for anything anywhere else he never got another offer so...

    do you remember a Rugby Union player in the 90s call Trevor Leota? One of the Strength and conditioning coaches for Wasps moved in with him prior to the 2004 cup final to stop him eating KFC buckets.

    Forwards Run Metres by Game

    Sparking something out of nothing would be great but a pack that goes forwards and lays a platform would be a great start.

    Forwards Run Metres by Game

    That is a valid concern especially with the limited data of 3 games (max) this should even out as we get deeper into the season. If it is misleading is a matter of perspective. If an impact player comes on and regularly pulls a big run in limited mins then surely they are doing their job. Ray...

    Round 3 Dolphins vs Wests Tigers, Sat March 22nd @ Kayo Stadium

    I think you were, if you look purely at him then yea he didn't have a great game. If you factor in the lack of go forwards by the pack and the lack of time he had to make decisisons he did pretty good. If you put him with a group that could give him time to look good he'd be flying.

    Forwards Run Metres by Game

    Stats are from NRL.com and are total run M by each round and M per Min played. I Added the M per Min as its not really a fair comparison if you have guys doing 80mins v guys doing 25

    Round 3 Dolphins vs Wests Tigers, Sat March 22nd @ Kayo Stadium

    He is getting better but still has the habit of coughing up a howler at a clutch moment.

    Round 3 Dolphins vs Wests Tigers, Sat March 22nd @ Kayo Stadium

    Kaufusi was AWOL today i'd be giving him 8 lace holes and a bus ticket to QCup. Bostock started so well and then well returned. That knock on near the line was criminal, ok it was a shoulder charge but hold onto the fucking ball.

    Didn't he spend the advance on his contract on a swimming pool? Hence the difficultly getting out of the contract as they wanted the $$ back

    Is he going to dig up the swimmingpool and bring it with him?

    Round 3 Dolphins vs Wests Tigers, Sat March 22nd @ Kayo Stadium

    Having seen the Tigers finally get it going last week I have to say this could be a spanking by them.

    Supercoach

    I guess fantasy sports aren't big down there. Essentially you select a fantasy dream team. each 'coach' has a budget of X million and must select a full squad of players each of whom have a value assigned by the system. Each week the players actual on field performance = points (tries, assists...
