I'm not asking you to tell me anything Tucker. I already I said I enjoyed watching Origin. I was merely stating my view that I think the media, including NRL 360, are overly obsessed by it at the cost of presenting other issues of interest to the fans.

Well done NRL 360, You surpassed last night's show with 50 minutes of Origin coverage, where most of the issues were repeated. As someone suggested, time to tune out!

Yes and it's only one aspect of the game of Rugby League that us local fans want to hear about.

Well bully for you Fallen Angel. I guess I watch it hoping to hear honest, informed views about various League topics because I enjoy the game and I look for some light entertainment at 6.30. I am often disappointed with the content, bias and dumb, poorly articulated comments but what other...

And never mind that local fans might like to a see a variety of topics discussed.

For God's sake, is there anyone else on here that thinks Origin is massively overblown? Yes, I find it interesting and I will watch it but there is no way that I count sleeps or get to a fever pitch as it approaches. The reality, is that it is a competition between two Australian states, where...

Credit where credit's due. Brooks played a fantastic game last night. (Gave him the 3 points). He was strong in all key facets of the game and, actually, looked like a leader. I've been one of Luke's biggest critics and I won't take back what I've said previously but, for last night, well done...

In an astounding team effort; 3 - Brooks (A complete halfback's game and astonishing turnaround) 2- Toa (Maybe the best performance by a centre this year) 1 - Bateman (Big contributor in attack and defence) Honourable Mentions: Koroisau, Tupou, Bula

Partly.

We know that, for some bizarre reason (unbeknownst to us), the coaches love Talau. The fact is, after numerous opportunities, he has shown himself to be bog average, as he can't pass, catch, run or tackle to a first grade standard. Now to the team - boring and numbingly predictable! Of course...

Well said. The other thing is that he is actually a fly half so could be considered as another option to replace Wakeham, who just doesn't create enough.

Well, clearly I don 't agree.

1. Jahream Bula 2. David Nofoaluma 3. Starford To'a 4. Tristan Reilly (Has some footwork and can defend) 5. Junior Tupou 6. Daine Laurie (Will provide more flair. Been playing well in KOE Cup)) 7. Luke Brooks 8. Alex Twal (Deserves to start) 9. Apisai Koroisau (c) (Let him play 80) 10. David...

I like the idea of Johnson. He still has plenty left in the tank, has a relationship with Benji and he definitely adds a touch of x factor, something we desperately need. I've been watching Laurie in Cup and he does have some ball playing skills. Maybe put those two together. I'm over Brooks...

He is as safe as a bank under the high ball, chimes into the backline with confidence and has a high involvement for a young player. He just needs to get into open space and score a try a two to lift his self belief further.

There is a lot of praise on here for a brave effort by the Tigers and I agree. The defence has come on in leaps and bounds. However, our big problem is our attack. We quite simply can't create or score a try. We might beat a flat Penrith in pouring rain or a mistake riddled St.George but...

3. Klemmer 2. Bateman 1. Twal

1. Tigers must shut down - Mitchell, Walker and Cook, in that priority order. 2. Tigers must take advantage of their attacking chances and score.

I think he is close to the most underrated, underappreciated player in the Tigers squad. He rarely misses a tackle and it's easy to not realise the total metres he clocks up each game. Recently he has run with more vigour and leg drive, making him a real force to be reckoned with. He does have...

It was tricky again and, for once, the forwards don't get most of the plaudits. The pack were solid but not spectacular. 3. Bula - For overall contribution and influence on the game, I think he deserves it. 2. Nof - Also very influential with powerhouse try, tough yards and a key bat away of a...
