We've re-signed Gagai for two more years - http://www.brisbanetimes.com.au/rugby-league/brisbane-broncos/broncos-gagai-in-new-twoyear-nrl-deal-20120319-1vfll.html Understandable that Beale is leaving - Hoffman has got the number 1 sewn up and Gerard has looked vulnerable on the wing. The club's...

Aside from the dropped ball and poor finishing it was a good performance. One try conceded through the line and the other was a length of the field effort - pretty happy about that. Pretty happy with Norman's progress. He should at least keep the 6 until round 10. Benny Hannant MOM by a country...

Guys I haven't watched the replay yet. Should I? LOL I heard his call of the Bowen try at the death - sounded like he was about to crap himself with excitement...

Yep there's a few lameo's on here. Griffen's comments in the post-match presser are interesting. Too many silly penalties, errors and just not prepared to work hard enough for the result. That first half was a shocker - we just handed them the initiative through stupid plays. If we'd won it...

This was the most unsurprising announcement of the week (wait has it been confirmed yet)? It'll be Australia vs India for the tri-series finals series so this match against Sri Lanka on 2 March amounts to nothing in the scheme of the competition.

I've renewed for year number five.

So much for the Sunday afternoon 1993 Grand Final commemoration match. The sooner we don't have the television networks picking the timeslots the better we'll all be.

http://www.abc.net.au/news/2011-11-13/peter-roebuck-dies-at-fifty-five/3663176?section=sport Vale Peter Roebuck. It appears he has met a very unfortunate end in South Africa. He was a brilliant commentator and I thought his opinion pieces and daily summaries of Australia's Test matches were...

Our batsmen seem to have no idea how to play pitches that allow movement off the seam. The same thing happened in England a couple of years ago when Broad rolled us in the fourth or fifth test and last year when the Paki's dismantled us for under 100. Seems like we've become so used to flat...

It's difficult to explain but I felt physically drained after the 80 mins. I don't know if it was from the cheering or from biting my nails but for some reason I had nothing in the tank at the start of golden point time.Has anyone felt that way before? Anyway I remember feeling like I was...

Not a bad draw actually. Some great home games at the back end of the year...

That's going to be a great afternoon of footy. We had a number of ripper home fixures that were ruined by the representative season and I've read the club has requested these big games be held outside that period if possible. Makes sense as our crowds suffered last year (around 2000 less than...

Yet another decision made by the television networks. It's only a Thursday nighter so it doesn't clash with the cricket. Mind you I find Thursday night footy appealing too.

That's partly true. Too many clubs are run by ex-footballers who wouldn't have the faintest idea of how to run a business. But I also don't think Sydney-based clubs have cottened on to how they can best engage the apathetic footy fans. Sydney obviously does have a lot of time for rugby league...

That's the key point. If clubs keep coming back for handouts it's a disincentive for them to be innovative and find new revenue streams. It's not easy but clubs must find a way to stand on their own two feet. If they still aren't able to survive then that's saying something - i.e. the Sydney...

The whole thing is a bloody mess. The game desperately needs a commission that can make decisions purely in the game's interests (not vested interest groups). It's highly unlikely News Limited will cave and allow the Independent Commission to inherit a game in debt. Gallop was adamant that if...

Regardless of who gets the 6 I hope we persist with the lucky one and don't chop and change. We need a good run of consecutive games for the team to get the hang of the new halves combination. If they struggle early on no doubt there will be pressure on Griffen to move on it but I'm pretty...

http://www.brisbanetimes.com.au/rugby-league/league-news/clubs-threaten-to-go-it-alone-as-fight-for-better-deal-escalates-20111011-1ljc7.html That makes it a bit clearer. If all 16 clubs are behind the push a breakaway competition surely isn't out of the question. Struggling to get my head...

The whole thing is just incredibly disheartening. That money doesn't even yet exist - it will materialise when the new broadcast agreement is signed off next year. I simply can't make heads or tails of what Pappas and the clubs are trying to achieve? Given he represents all of the clubs can I...

McGuire completely dudded. I'm bewildered.
