    CROSS FORUM NRL Round 11 Discussion

    I was coming on here to say just how coincidental it was that all the games have been super close, and often with multiple lead changes throughout the games. I would love to see the stats on penalties and 6-agains as which ones were awarded to the team behind on the scoreboard, as Hashtag Game...

    PRE-GAME [Round 12, 2024] Broncos vs Titans

    I managed to snag 5 seats in a row on Thursday, but it's in the nosebleeds, all other areas were single seats only.

    CROSS FORUM NRL Round 11 Discussion

    Sin bins shouldn't be called dependent on "feel for the game". Should players get away with exactly the same actions just because in the refs interpretation they are the team that has the momentum? Because that's how you get teams like the Panthers get all the calls because they are expected to...

    "Nah I never played fullback growing up (giggle)". "I played at lock though. Like in the middle. But they made me play it behind the line so I could catch the kicks and have room to run, and they kept making me wear the number 1 jersey, I think because I was like, the number one best try...

    He's going to be 38 years old and still scrapping out 70+ min performances and you'll be saying "yeah I'm really worried that all these minutes are going to take their toll eventually". Dude's a machine hahahhahaa.

    Cut off his parents? Maybe, but I'm more talking about his siblings. Even if he does distance himself from his parents, he wouldn't cut off his siblings and some of them are young enough to still need parental guidance and support (which, I assume, the parents aren't providing, and soon may not...

    And also why he didn't take unders to stay. Not that you need $1 million + a year to support a family but sounds like he'll be the head of the family indefinitely and his career won't last forever.

    I wish I had an answer, not at work so I can't ask sorry. But it would make sense as to why we're not playing Pereira, he's a solid first grader, I'm sure he would be preferred over a rookie considering the other outs.

    I have so many jokes (in poor taste of course) but I have to hold out until he's named. It's killing me.

    According to Trew's Dad. I don't verify these rumours sorry, I just excitedly parrot them for the internet cred.

    Hoeter and Pereira both out. One more injury and it's likely between Leota and Trew. Trew BTW is 6'7" apparently.

    PRE-GAME [Round 11, 2024] Broncos vs Sea Eagles

    I work with a guy that has been saying his son's been signed to the Broncos since 15. All of a sudden saying that he's only one or two injuries away from getting a shot, I'm thinking "sure buddy, every young kids Dad has those high hopes". Turns out it's Trew's dad hahahaha. Now I know why he...

    What that means then is that this is all a smokescreen for something juicy that went down but powerbrokers in the NRL and media are trying to bury. Has the Ponga situation suddenly gone quiet?

    If it was one of ours, and they at least have the freedom to say a Qld player, they would have said it was a Broncos player.

    If we get him to make lists in multiple threads, we'll have Sproj everywhere.

    Jensen in the forwards and Pereira in the backs were the surprise strength brutes according to the ex-trainer cheer dad ;)

    Soooo, what has Ponga done for Native Mineral Resources in order for them to justify such a heavy sponsorship of him?

    2024 NRL General Discussion Thread

    My guess is that they'll have any players with PNG heritage exempt from the cap, and then the full cap that every other team has to recruit non-PNG players as well. It's the easiest way to get them to have a decent contingent of PNG players but still being competitive. But as @Browny said...

    PRE-GAME [Round 11, 2024] Broncos vs Sea Eagles

    Warriors won't give up their home game against us during Origin. My guess would be Bulldogs as the "home" team if the Sea Eagles pull out. They've always been out in numbers when their team play in Brisbane. Also probably the most feral supporters but whatever.
