Mal?

Ian Millward is Bob/Robert Millwards son. Bob is on the board, and a rugby league heavier hit. Ian, who, and its just my opinion, hasnt delivered in this league career. He has his career for the same reason Kyle is still a first grade league player.

Im not sure who Mal is.

They will need special treatment because, just from a sports fan point of view, its the dumbest most confusing decision a sports board has made in my life time.

I am so interested to see how its going to work etc.

When you mix politics or other societal elements into sport, it never works and ends up in tears. Lets see what happens.

Just attracting someone like me to go and play for the club would take more then being paid overs. Perth are asking for cap benefits, and thats in Australia. I wonder what Albanese is going to want the NRL to do to make it a success when they arent winning due to not being able to atrract the required talent.

I have my popcorn ready.

They say this was more about international geopolitics more than anything. Like the whole world bar US-Canada, US-UK, US-Mexico, Argentina-Brazil, and EU countries trade with each other, China is PNGs largest trading partner and growing. They say this (NRL expansion) is due to the desire to bolster US influence via Aus. I don't think it's going to work at all. Not the team and not the effort to curtail Chinese influence.

Dolphin's Selwyn CobboSelwyn looks in quite good shape. At least better than he was for most or all of last season but looks like he could still lose another kg around the mid-section.
Who is that next to him?
