I'm still sitting here wondering how 'Buzz' (I'm always right) Rothfield gets to sit, specs perched on the end of his snout, pontificating about the fact that he was "just talking to Haas' manager before the show" and he "got the feeling" that they were going to reject the offer. This...
It's always been this way hasn't it, we take kids with raw talent, put them into the development system and bring them up to NRL grade while still retaining that raw edge. You only need to look at Selwyn Cobbo's try against the Dolphins where he made something brilliant out of nothing at all to...
If Haas stays ... ok ... if he goes ... see ya later, but the guy's a walking headline and, sad to say, he's almost got that air of self-destruction about him. Staying in Brizzy gives him stability and a sense of belonging. Go to Sydney and you're lost in the mix and surrounded by some pretty...
My seat's on the front row close to the 30 metre line ... spent the whole of the second half yelling at Cobbo to get 2 metres wider, he got burned once for a try by Khan-Pereira ( biggest poser in the league btw, what a muppet) who would probably have easily done the same again given more ball...
Can't believe how the press and so called legends (yeah Cozza talking 'bout you) are losing their shit over this. It's been going on for years and, up to now we stayed clear of it but, if you lay down with dogs you get up with fleas. I'd like to know how many ex-players could admit, in the midst...
Just pulled this of the Fox NRL site on where Benny the Ball will land ... "The Bulldogs are keen on Hunt’s services but his desire to return to Queensland makes the Titans — who are reportedly willing to offer him a $9000,000-a-year deal — the frontrunners for his signature." ... Des must be...
Is it me or what? ... looking at the general condition of the Dolphins, they seem generally overweight and down on energy. In particular Tesi Niu looks like Big Dell just before he hung his boots up, and Brenko Lee looked like he was trundling out for the Wallumbilla Red Bulls (no offence...
Just watched the presser ... Kevvie was jumping out of his skin, wanted to say more but said "my contract won't cover the fine" ... never seen him that pissed off before.
I hope we can hang on to Haas but, just in case, I reckon tonight we have a gold-plated opportunity to show the world and the likes of Fittler and Johns (immortal my ass) that our season's not over because we lost 3 players to injury and suspension and yes, the world will keep on turning ...
Watching the game last night with my missus and I mentioned "Me and Paddy Carrigan are the same weight and I could never see myself hitting the line like him" ... she said "He's 25 and full of solid muscle and bone ... you're 75 and full of flabby burgers and beer" ... oh the pain!!!
Got an email from Ticketek telling me that the "window" for seat "allocation" will be open from tomorrow Thurs. at 10.00 am. It's a friggin' free-for-all ... I have pretty expensive seats at Suncorp but could find myself up in the boonies at the Gabba, doesn't seem fair somehow.
Sorry if this has been previously linked ... have to say, if my membership depended on answering these ... I'd be on my way to Redcliffe (perish the thought!!) https://www.zerotackle.com/quiz-random-broncos-players-from-the-2000s-123320/
I know there have been a couple of comments recently in the forum but is there any weight to the chatter about the Broncs "interest" in Kruise Leeming .. and do we need a hooker? ... just askin'
Bennett spotted hanging around the backdoor of the judiciary in dark glasses and a crumpled raincoat with a suspicious looking brown paper bag in his mitt.
An absolute must .... can't go up against those numpties from the peninsula with anything less. They'll turn on the "home-ground" vibe bigtime ... and that's probably what pings me off the most. All that stuff with the Beetson medal and posing with the statue blah blah ... all mind games.
Enjoyed the tries and the defence was monumental (as Sproj said, reminiscent of that Melbourne game back in 2015) ... loved everything about the win ... but the high spot for me, when they smashed Luai and held him up short of the line I was out of my seat yelling "Yeah .. how d'ya like that...
The thought of the Broncs taking the flag and the Dumplings taking the spoon is now an even more delicious dream. Bye Herbie .. just flick the dust off the silverware on your way out mate.
I was already on the hate train ... now I'm up the front shoveling coal into the f#####g boiler ... I'm not surprised at him leaving ... but to go to the Dumplings ffs!!! .... I reckon he'll stay there until the contract is done and he's made some dough, then he'll head back to the old dart ...
