    I can't blame him for wanting to cash in on his current profile. Good luck to him, however take out the scoring and look at the bulk of his time in play week after week and he still has quite significant weaknessess in defence in both technique and positioning. Granted the guaranteed weekly fuck...

    The point is it looks amateur to mark your own homework. Can you imagine if Brazil played argentina in the FIFA world cup and had a Brazilian or Argentinian ref?

    the 6 again has done away with the big 20 min prop. Guys like Nelson are now for the history books. Haas is a freak who can do 80 mins probably a once in a generation player. Is there any way of finding the leagues total average weight over each of the last 10 years?

    World cup

    As much as RU bores me to death they do at least have impartial refs. Australia have played 4 and had 4 home refs. England had 3 games and 3 Australian refs. NZ had 4 Australian Refs. For the international game to have any credibility moving forwards NZ are going to need to step up withe Refs...

    Recruitment and Retention for 2028

    Over the last few seasons i've notice that there is a move to smaller mobile props who can do longer stints. I wouldn't be suprised if next year we run 'hybrid' props it may be a few years off but the future is guys like Cotter.

    I don't pay much attention to SL as my team is Championship, I watch the odd Challenge cup game and most years go to the final and watch the GF (although i've stopped going to it live). However the problem is SL and NRL are very different, there are some different rules the ruck speed is...

    Do you drink a slab before you type? How can you in anyway say Williams is hurting the cap before you've actually seen him play? Knowles hasn't hit expectations so far and i have concerens about Williams but Neither are hurting the cap. Hurting the cap is a player being paid loads to sit in QCup.

    Sure herbie is a different story. His glory will be premierships as he'll never get SOO (even though he is blatantly a QLD product) he'll also never get anything with England. and sure he is now coming into the peak of his career. (Also i'm pretty sure that his family are shall we say not in...

    Yea i'm watching it. i've been up hours watching the wheelchair games. Englands Womens game is still basically Amateur and i'd say most of the Samoa team are not born and raised in Samoa. York, Saint Helens and Wigan do have some cash for players but they are still working full time. Take Amy...

    I get your point. If the guy was 30 and had the stash in the bank and was set already its would be job done. It depends on motivation, is he interested in adulation or cash. Bank what you can when you can, if you happen to pick up some glory great but cutting your earnings for it is only a...

    With the money comes the lifestyle and bimbo wanting to spend it. How many times do you hear of this ex player or that ex player spending loads on post career surgery or treatment, or as you say pissing it up the wall or up their nose.

    75k sat in an investment for 40 years will. Sports careers follow the opposite path to most. Nearly every career you start on poor pay and as you get older you get better and end up on the most usually in your 50s or 60s (especially exec level) In sport you earn most of the cash before you're 30...

    Knees however have a tendancy like hamstrings to keep going. How many kids have you coached or spoken to who don't bother with school because they are convinced they will be a star so don't need to study? I used to tell them all it takes is one hit to the side of the knee in the wrong way and...
