Bring on Doggett and Boland lets go!!!!!!!!!!!

Mate, I think you need to revisit my post. I’ve been on record saying I think it’s best if we can push Seyfarth back to Cup. I’m not defending his football ability in attack and defence I’m just pointing out that discipline is not his biggest issue and the last 2 years are proof that that part...

I know people like to bash Seyfarth for his discipline but he improved markedly over the 2025 season. His average minute per penalty was over 133 and he’s been sin binned 3 times in 91 games (average of 1 per 30 games aka 1.25 seasons) only once last year. In 2024 he was getting a penalty every...

Ok so we play the following teams twice (brackets is last year ladder, finals position) Raiders (1st, 2nd rd finals) - Leichhardt Bulldogs (3rd, 2nd rd finals) - Commbank Warriors (6th, 1st rd finals) - C-Town Panthers (7th, 3rd rd finals) - 2x Commbank Eels (11th) - 2x Commbank Cowboys (12th) -...

The more I look at the picture the more it looks fake. Like Makasinis skin looks far too perfect when you’d expect to see a more muscular outline (legs especially), there’s no emblem, can’t really see a CCC anywhere and other sponsors are messed up including pepper money a little. Reeks of AI...

Very interesting scenarios to play out here. I mean last year we picked McSweeney to open based on the philosophy that he was at the time one of our 6 best betters but he was a No.3 and we all know how that went when he went to open. This year Weatherald has probably been the best opener in...

Clubs opt into Magic Round home games. There is a decent financial incentive from the NRL and given our club hasn’t been making any profit for the last 10 years until this year it makes a lot of sense why we are taking the opportunity. Broncos would never sign up as they know they just get a...

3 matchups for 2026 are the exact same as Rd1 2025. Storm v Eels Dogs v Dragons Dolphins v Rabbitohs Additionally Storm v Eels has now occurred 3 times in the last 4 years for a first round.

AI hates the Tigers apparently. As long as our remaining two byes are at Round 10 and 19 or near to that then it’s ok, but then if they give us a bye in like Rd24 or later then we are just being screwed over. Can’t wait for 2027 where byes are gonna be evenly placed 🙏.

I think the teams they send to Vegas is pretty much decided like a whole year before. In 2024 I’m pretty sure 3 of those teams made finals (just checked and yes 3 did but also the bulldogs logo looks so bad on the ladder 🤣) and Dragons came 11th. I think their strategy has been to send 4 new...

Heamasi Makasini is a coach???? 🤣

More like Payne Haas AND Pat Carrigan

Izaac Tui'itupou is managed by Tyran Smith's agency and ended up in the Magpies NSW Cup system and eventually went on to play one NRL game this year. Obviously he could be managed by someone else within the agency (like Payne Haas managed by Merhi) or maybe it was the best contract offered to...

Firstly, I’d like to say I also believe that Alex had a fairly lacklustre year last year and based on that he should be in NSW Cup to start the year only coming into first grade as cover or if he has earned a promotion by playing out of his skin. However, your statistics are not comparable and...

Sidearm. That’s what I’ve always called it. To be fair they are only as dangerous as someone bowling at you if not less dangerous as skilful bowlers are capable of getting more swing or better hiding variations, but they are just far more convenient from a training perspective. The most...
