    Greg Inglis

    Will have a domino effect on the player market. Thats alot of $$$ for a big club to have.

    Mybe is a myth

    I don't know. How much is his PCL actually effecting him or are we just assuming that it is? What grade PCL is it? If its a minor grade it can be repaired in 6 weeks for a normal person, and I would say probably alot faster for those with the extensive rehab programs that NRL Clubs have. In my...

    NRL Round 5 *LIVE SPOILERS

    I actually thought Parra were okay yesterday. Nothing went there way and they could have easily scored a few tries where just one small thing and they were in. They defended really well and absolutely had no ball for a large chunk of the game.

    Canterbury Cup team announcement Round 5

    Momirovski is nothing more than a stop gap/solid centre. He has nothing about him that would scare an opposition. The best you hope from someone like him is that he makes no mistakes and defends well (and he is probably pretty good at that). But he will never win you a game by making a break...

    Mybe is a myth

    Every single one of those players has had a better year than MBye. But to break it down, CNK is already lightyears better, Gordon got MOM the othe rnight, Meaney carved us up and Boyd is doing no worse/better than Mbye, he has just been solid. The only ones Mbye is better than on that list is...

    Your Team v Slimey's Eels

    I fully agree with you. He also turned the game vs Manly with some big charges. But god his defence concerns me. As we compress in, he is just slow laterally and to turn. We have been very lucky this year not to conceed alot more tries, where Fonua has been found out but something has saved us...

    Mybe is a myth

    As highlighted above, he is not as dynamic as most fullbacks but fairly safe. He is a solid option there and anything more you probably have over expectations. No dogs fans were really to upset about his departure.

    Your Team v Slimey's Eels

    1 Mybe 2 Nofo 3 Jennings 4 Marsters 5 Thompson 6 Reynolds 7 Brooks 8 Packer 9 Farah 10 Twal 11 Matterson 12 Garner 13 Eisenhuth 14 Matulino 15 Mikaele 16 Aloiai 17 Mck * I would swap Nofo for Fonua. Fonua brings some go forward, but I think our go forward is okay regardless. He concerns me...

    We never get credit for wins

    Who cares what they say really? I actually think the media has talked us up a bit too much at times, particularly after a few wins. In my opinion (and just mine), we aren't a great team. Player for player, if you stack us up to our opposing numbers last night, we are hardly stronger than...

    Brooks and Marsters redemption

    I actually like what Marsters is doing in attack, he hasn't broken through yet but he keeps trying to skip outside his opposite man. I think at some stages its going to work this year, which is not something the club has ever benefited from in a while.

    Attack - Most disjointed I have ever seen in an NRL game

    Because they looked more likely to score had they held it. They looked like they had more in the bank, but dropped balls hurt them alot. In our case, while we dropped a bit of ball, even if we held it, I don't feel we looked like scoring at all other than off a little grubber into the ingoal.

    Who is off contract this year?

    Wondering if anyone has the list?

    What Is The Answer?

    How many cleanouts can we have? We had a huge one two years ago. Unfortunately, Ivan seemed to sign anyone who wanted a run and we ended up with this. Unfortunately, we have terrible attack. We seem to sign a lot of players who are "solid". They can tackle ok, but don't offer anything in...

    Attack - Most disjointed I have ever seen in an NRL game

    I think penriths attack looked a lot better, they just dropped the ball a lot. They made a fair few line breaks (one down the left, Kikau, winning try, one that was called back off the forward pass etc). They just played terribly and dropped it. When we went sideways nothing was happening. It...

    Brooks under pressure

    Brooks has been very ordinary vs Manly, Panthers and Dogs this year, and he was average against the Warriors. A shocking start. Can hardly recall anything good. Why is he always starting flat footed in attack? Rewatch the game, he stands there everytime and doesn't get our backs going forward...
