No matter how many games he ends up playing, he will number amongst the very best to have played the game and we are very luck to have shared the time with him. I have been able to watch some of the true long term champions and play makers in Kenny, Sterlo, Lewis, Lamb, Daley, Fitler, Langer...
As long as there isn't too much the we have "the Greatest team" or "greatest Backline" EVER! stuff like last year, then game one will go okay, but the media rot last year spoilt it before it even got started. The teams need to think about the game and not about the ledger. It's 0-0 every year.
I think to some extent it showed that we may not be doing as well as some may suggest. We've jusy scraped home in a number of games and been lucky in a few others. I hope they get these sleepy periods out of their game before we run up against too many sides in form, because last night the...
It's all been said, I had just hoped they would've been on song for locky. Next week is another game and I would hope they would try a little harder in defence OR it will be another bad day out.
As far as I knew, in the last game v the kiwis, he was almost 4 overs behind with five overs to go... and he was miles behind in India. Further more the other teams don't seem to have as much trouble as him, nor have previous captains.
Howdy folks, does anyone else get sick of the slow over rate by this aussie team? I like ponting as a batsman and he's a fine fielder, but this over rate crap and having to go up to the bowler between every ball is just killing the game. Tell them what to do and get on with it, he either has...
The haka is a beat up, the aussies had an off night, if they played that same game again 25 times the kiwis would be lucky to win one. How many games do you see at that level where so many things went wrong for one side and right for the other, we played poorly, they played well, where we were...
I thought that much was obvious, after all ppl were talking about Lockyer taking over from Bennet at the Broncos, not meninga at SOO level. I don't believe SOO is a true level to test a coaches ability, if it was Fatty would be the greatest coach of all time. Only club level shows the true ability.
That's not fair, wally coached a crap team with no hope, Lockyer would have a top side with huge chances. Had Lewis taken over the broncos who knows what he would've done.
Poor form by WB IMO, he gains very little by slanging off at Cullen and certainly gains nothing from offering critisim of a legend of the game. If this is going to be the trend for his post Broncos career he will leave a very sour taste in the mouths of other wise loyal fans. WB could have a lot...
I don't care about it's name, I just hope that it's gone next time Slater takes the field. I'm not at all surprised that a storm player would be doing such a thing, but I am a little saddened by it. The Storm have done well over the years and all these sorts of little things just add to the...
The NRL has warned star Melbourne fullback Billy Slater to be "careful" about potentially dangerous foot-first tackles following the Storm's grand final defeat to Manly.
Slater was twice seen using his feet first in tackles during Melbourne 40-0 grand final loss, both times sliding towards Sea...
He did it to stop ben hannant's try in the game v the bronocs, and I am very much suggesting that he is coached... why wouldn't he be. And i don't bait, it's just the way i see it.
The storm could very well thrash the sharks, they have had a couple of really tough matches and will be stringer for it. If they win they win, no greater effort really.
I don't think ppl should be attacking sims or anything like that, but he certainly played a major part in the game being stolen from us in the death. Is he soley to blame, no... but is he to balme... for his part, very much yes.
I think you guys might find that the media are involved in a seemingly endless game of one-upmanship. There is now a such a huge rush of media attention whenever a big story comes about, it's the old "blood in the water" type thing. I doubt these people could care less about the finals or...
