    Round 15 vs Sydney Roosters

    I do love these 11am kick offs, very civilized. the 4am from Auckland isn't one i particualrly enjoy. I have to admit when its just a straight 1up set they seem to get better metres. However when its time to move the ball and break the line we do have the upper hand. Speaking as a fan of the...

    Recruitment and Retention for 2027

    $1M is not that much for Herbie. Espeically when PNG's tax free scam will skew the cap which is also rising at the end of next season. Loads of players with ratchet clauses will be on over $1m

    Deliberate Knock on

    Only fair if the next time a centre/winger put their hand into the line and bats the ball down when we are passing out wide gets done too. Which we know it wouldn't. Its a penalty that is never given and its just so happens that when they cows are 14-22 down with 22 to play the ref gives a...

    Deliberate Knock on

    So, yes it is in the rule book, however when did anyone last see or hear of a penalty given for a deliberate knock on before yesterday? I was at a game yesterday and asked around various fans and staff/ex players etc. nobody can ever remember seeing it called.

    Round 14: Dolphins vs NQ Cowboys

    Well it wasn't champagne RL. But it was efficient. and in years to come all anyone will see is W W W W W. I'm not getting carried away. So far my Dolphins fandom has gone either great start shit finish. Shit start good middle shit finish.

    Round 14: Dolphins vs NQ Cowboys

    in fairness with the close contact to the opposition he probably didn't know whether it was the ball of the player.

    I think props are getting smaller. They look more like 13s every year.

    Round 14: Dolphins vs NQ Cowboys

    Its a bit of a shitter for those clubs who are tied down on long contracts with bigger players. you clear your cap space make a signing and then before they even arrive the rules have changed.

    Round 14: Dolphins vs NQ Cowboys

    It would be very interesting to see a year on year comparrison on the avg player weight across the league to see if it has dropped (as i susupect) since the 6 again.

    The sad state of UK RL

    They've held the CC at Wembley for like 100 years, basically since it was built. There is always talk about leaving it because well its really hard to get too and not exactly down the road. However the history and tradition lot win out. There was a good argument in the 90s when they were talking...

The Challenge cup is supposed to be the jewel in...

    Recruitment and Retention for 2027

    No, we need another forward. Still we go through chunks of the game with little go fowards and the back line carries the attack.
