    2024 NRL Player Movements & Rumours

    He said he wants a premiership. Out of the likely contenders TPJ is now down to the Roosters and Panthers (again). Roosters have a war chest but I can absolutely see them signing him for $200k/season and he'd be ripe to have a couple of failed drug tests stashed away somewhere as fallback.

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

    If it's the one I'm thinking of, it wasn't a head knock, he got a massive shot to the ribs that, on replay, you can see it ripple through his whole body. No wonder he dropped it. Surprised he could play on after that, the fucker must be tough.

    That Storm fullback with the drop before the kick, rightly being called a knock-on, just proves once again the "doesn't need to be attempting a field goal" drop-kick for that Storm try years ago was just another "only time this interpretation will ever be used, because it's against the Broncos"...

    PLAYER Xavier Willison

    Kev is keeping his game incredibly simple, too. Once he's 20-30 games in and conditioned to it, they'll start to ease out some his attacking ability.

    2024 NRL Injury Discussion

    So, with Cleary being injured, do the NRL suspend him for a hip drop, knowing he's on the sidelines anyway? He's been off the field enough to likely rule him out for any Daly M contention, so the 2 week suspension ineligibility rule won't worry them.

    CROSS FORUM NRL Round 10 Discussion

    Girdler marvelling at how, after Dogs have been so dominant, the Panthers are able to turn momentum and score. Apparently he can't hear the same whistle, "penalty, six again, six again, penalty, six again, THEY MIGHT NOT NEED THIS SIX AGAIN HE MIGHT BE OVER" that those of us listening can hear...

    The worst part is an ex Penrith player is on the Triple M commentary team and he's just whitewashed the chat as "common sense prevails".

    PRE-GAME [Round 10, 2024] Broncos vs Eels

    The Panthers have the winning formula. The 5 equally important ingredients are: * A halfback * Some outside backs * A coach * In a strategically important location so the NRL makes sure they are successful, and are allowed to live off-side, get consistently preferential treatment on and off the...

    Thanks. I thought it was later than that, as we were the only two unbeaten clubs at that point.

    Even if that were true, how many wins did they have in a row to start last year? I'm sure it was at least 4...

    The way he is forced to defend these situations, against all common sense and reason, I'm fully expecting him to be sweating out hair dye any day now.

    POST GAME [Round 9, 2024] Broncos vs Roosters

    I have to say now, the one thing more erratic than Walsh.... is BHQ after a loss: I'm not even angry about the game now, that's gold.

    POST GAME [Round 9, 2024] Broncos vs Roosters

    I'd like to blame the absolute bullshit sin-binning. It wasn't a binning when Penrith did it and took our player out. But tonight it is? **** right off you fucking corrupt scum. It wasn't even on losing Reynolds. Or Arthars. That loss was on Walsh, and the cocky little **** needs to pull his...

    And wasn't it a matter of, if a player went off, they were off for the game, the replacement would play it out?

    NEWS Renouf rejected Roosters, backs Cobbo to follow suit

    Pretty sure I read in Locker's book that he made more money in the Super League times than he ever did when it was the NRL, even when he was Broncos, Qld and Aus captain.

    PRE-GAME [Round 9, 2024] Broncos vs Roosters

    That's kind of the point. The tug if war between the Rabbitohs & Roosters, then Union, and talks of $1 million a year deals, I would only expect that of a once-in-a-generation player who would be dominating from his debut. And I was talking about Staggs & Cobbo, in their first two years. Not...

    PRE-GAME [Round 9, 2024] Broncos vs Roosters

    Thanks mate. I'm sitting in the carpark while my youngest does cheer training. Normally this is my "have an hour nap in the car" time, but I'm not feeling the same exhaustion and burnout. No reduction in the hyperbole or cynicism though.
