Yep Manly will probably go in as deserved favourites but I'm more confident about our chances this week than the last two weeks. We're building and are due for a good performance. Of course the test will be whether we can maintain it for 80 minutes. Against Manly at Brookvale anything less won't...

Yep. Don't underestimate the importance of the 9/Foxtel last right of refusal clause. In 5 years time if they're outgunned by 7/10 there'll be no coming back for Gyng then. In light of that I can live with this deal (I just hate that some clubs will continue to suffer around Origin time and...

Listening to Gyngell in the press conference there was no way they were going to show both Friday night games and the Sunday afternoon game live. Makes no sense from a commercial perspective which I can understand. I quite like the idea of starting sunday afternoon games at 4pm anyway. It was...

I think the removal of that clause also means that origin matches can be unbundled from the regular season games and sold separately. Origin get bigger every year - can you imagine how big it will be in five years time? Money in the bank man...

I think this is a really important point that's been overlooked. It was a bit of a noose around the neck of the commission and is a definite advantage for the incumbents. But all in all I think it's a good outcome. They've gotten to the magical $1 billion (and with a bit more to come) and in...

Drama queen.

Bugger the night grand final

The scheduling for the remaining six rounds will be confirmed by round 16. I can live with that.

On face value it looks like more of the same but I'll wait for the presser before going on that hunch.

Looks that way doesn't it. More of the same old boys we get every year. Looking forward to the press conference. Will be gutted if there's no fixed scheduling and simulcasted games on Fox Sports.

Yep he's definitely got the smarts. It'd be quite a coup if rugby league pinched him.

Re: Round 24 - Broncos vs Storm - Post Match Discussion Definitely no try. They were coming for us though and probably would have overrun us anyway. Still doesn't make it any easier to hear.

I see a role for Norman at the back in the coming years with an eventual move to lock forward as he gradually bulks up. To me he just looks more comfortable down back at the moment and he can at least trouble the defence with his angled running close to the try line (unlike Hoffman who has lost...

Although Manly looked ominous yesterday we should feel pretty confident going down there. Aside from the fact they have a lot of busted players our form has been getting better and better over recent weeks and we can't be too far away from putting together an 80 minute performance. If we can...

Pretty good effort last night.We definitely deserved better. A definite improvement on last week but gees that first 20 mins of the second half was ordinary. We were flat as a tac. The video referee was shit but what else is new? We may have lost 5 in a row but I feel better now than I did...

I've found Griffen's post match press conferences pretty interesting over the last few weeks. Last week he was surprisingly positive in praising some aspects of our game (even though the rest of us had the knives out) and saying it was something to build on. Yesterday's press conference was...

Be surprised if Glenn makes it back during the regular season. Maybe week one of the finals if we snag a lower spot...

Broncos or nada.

I'll be there as always although I'm going in with zero expectations. I expect we won't make the 8 although if there's one game I want to win all season it's this one. It'll make the off season just that little more bearable.

Funny I was thinking the same thing. With just one performance we're in a much better space than we were this time last weekend. I'm expecting us to keep building against Melbourne. I don't think we're good enough to win but if we replicate a lot of the things we did in the first 20 minutes...
