    2026 Squad

    I've just found it on youtube the rd 22 game he was binned in the 73rd min for a cannonball/hip drop/ 3rd man/ shit show. However if you watch it he does appear to slip on his left foot and fall. The fact its broke Jacob Labans leg made it look alot worse than it really was. In the rd 11 game...

    Just don't make him Captain, you want to keep him free from burden and play the moment.

    2026 Squad

    Never met the guy obviously, but i don't think people would last in pro sport these days if they intended to injure people. maybe 30 years ago but now there is far too much money on the line. I've often felt he plays hard and on the line the big problem is when it comes to reviews he always ends...

    Why The Dolphins?

    So i never really followed the NRL due to broadcasting issues over here. i managed to catch the odd origin or grand final etc. Then when the Watch NRL app came out i got it and decided I needed a team and the Dolphins were new to the league so no baggage. if you follow any of the established...

    I can get 6 nights in Northern Spain with return flights for both of us for about £500 so although what you say could sound funny its pretty close to the truth.

    If I bought in the week of the game £90 is about right. If I buy. Ow for the end of Feb they are about 45. However that only gets me to Euston from Coventry. The full trip is home to cov station, train to Euston, tube tooting bus from tooting to the ground. It's about 2hrs 40 each way

    There's a lot to be said for loyalty but the fact the players have the power and the board are too busy fighting amongst themselves to care is a problem

    Benji is a weird one, he's not really done much but when you consider what hes working with its actually quite impressive to get the players to turn up on time with the same kit to play in.

    Uk average wage is about £36k that includes all the city toffs on millions and part timers. minimum wage is £25k FT. sad thing is £58k will put you in the top 10% of earners so 90% of the country are on £1100 a week or less (before tax). My mortgage is pretty good at £573 a month but i'm in the...

    Well this team certainly is the gift that keeps on giving. You really have to feel for the fans. i mean if you have followed them for years and still keep forking out your cash to follow them you truly must be counted amongst the elite sports fans in the world.

    Hi, did you go to the Everton game? I did Wembley but couldn't get tickets for this one. Sadly I'm out next sat night so will be watching on TV while getting ready. I thought Knowles did well and dropping Welsby was a great decision. Overall i thought England threw the kitchen sink in the first...

    Even with a full development system it will take the best part of 10 years to bear fruit for as you correctly say all the top players will have been signed by the donkeys. I also suspect that if they donkeys know what they are doing (which i highly suspect they do) they will have hoovered up...
