Whilst I wanted Kevvie to coach us this season I understand the clubs thinking in getting madge in.
The only issue I have is has the club made a rod for its own back? What do they do if we don't make the grand final this year and then miss the finals altogether in 2026. That would mean we have...
I'm inclined to agree. Not sure how good we are yet but the signs are the titans might struggle this year.
We'll know more once we get our full team on the park and play a few premiership fixtures against the more fancied teams.
For now I'm happy with that effort but as they say one swallow...
We should cut them off now.
In the likely event they go into administration we would only get cents in the dollar (if anything) and it would be some way down the track.
Better to ditch them now and get a new sponsor (which shouldn't be too hard) that will pay on time and in full.
No
All our blokes have gotten out playing ordinary shots. We have plenty of time, don't need to get these runs in a hurrry.
If we lose another wicket before 100 it's game on for India.
This is a very gettable target for us.
If we had to do it on this pitch on day 5 and bumrah was bowling it would be tough but if we play smart we should be able to chase this target down.
Don't know how that would work with a club having parts of it in 2 separate countries.
Balmain would also want to be careful that the keas don't just use them to get their ticket into the NRL and then down the track just punt them saying "it's too hard in different countries, tigers have a very...
All stars game might count but he could be deemed ineligible for selection.
Don't think preseason games will count. He is likely to be suspended for a specific number of nrl games/rounds.
I don't know what might happen if the number of games he is suspended for goes past State of Origin but in...
From memory Fittler was 2/4 series wins (but I could be wrong)
I heard that the problem wasn't money but that they would only give him a 1 yr extension.
In the end they gave Madge 2 yrs I think so freddie was right to be miffed.
It was no secret that Madge would take an NRL coaching job at some...
They must have run out of options so have had to trawl through previous guys who have done the job.
I also suspect they were not overrun with blokes putting their hand up.
No doubt Daley will spin it as "unfinnished business".
Their real mistake was in not doing a deal to extend fittler.
As I understand it, Kev has been offered (and I think accepted) some sort of ambassador position with the Broncos. (I don't think it is anything to do with the coaching department) maybe more in marketing and corporate hospitality.
Anyway while he is doing this I doubt he would be interested in...
Yeah but aren't we playing the chooks in Sydney?
I don't consider 2 games in different cities a clash even if they're on the same day.
I meant when the broncos and lions are both playing in brisbane on the same day.
Anyone know when the full draw will be released?
They have put out Rd 1 so I suppose it is close.
As usual the AFL have got theirs out ahead of us so we will get the blame if there are any same day Broncos and Lions clashes.
