Probably. But I can promise you if I’d been game to do that in my junior games our coach would have frog-marched me off and played a man short. Shame that discipline has gone from the game. Mind you, playing a man short with me off might have improved our game.

I totally agree with you about goading but Klein refereed that incident different to how it’s been refereed ever. I hate goading but you can’t do a 180 degree turn in officiating without any warning. It was typical Klein partisanship. I respect your opinion but can you point out any previous...

The NRL and match officials have only themselves to blame for the Walsh / Hudson incident yesterday. For the past few years they have done nothing about the taunting that has become an increasing part of the game. Players patting opposition players on the back derisively after they knock on or...

Always thought he could coach. To be fair no coach could have done much better with the WT team he had at his disposal. But his history with Souths is interesting and this is only year one with Brisbane. He can coach but his coaching may not be sustainable over the long term.

Time will tell but I think you're right. Both will be treated leniently.

Don't want to verbal you here but, are you saying the correct decision would have been to bin Hudson and leave Walsh on the field?

Very good question. I don't bash referees on this forum but I have real doubts about Ashley Klein. He knew he had to bin Walsh and the best way to even it up was to bin Hudson for what was basically gamesmanship. You'd bin 10 players, at least, if you applied that rule to every game.

This bloke is a genuine grub.

Gee the discourse over the last few pages has been interesting. I've had to put down my basketweaving and turned off my Mitch Miller music to make sure I don't miss any of it.

What a good idea to have a draft for the women. Drafts work in other sports but the players have never accepted it in the NRL but that's the men. Perhaps the NRL could persuade the women to accept a draft to allow the women's game to progress. That would make it very interesting for the...

I usually think players have to take a share of the blame for poor results but I'm not sure I can here. How in hell could our club put together a team that is so woefully outskilled and outmuscled by just about every other team in the competition? It just defies logic and reason that a club in a...

Maybe tofu, who knows?

No well wishes from me. Showed himself to be a total grub in trying to break his contract with WT. In the same grub class as Woods and Moses for me.

I have absolutely no doubt Manly made him a bigger offer to induce him to break his contract. The argy bargy with Pascoe and Hagi was all part of the charade.

Yep, amazing comeback by the Bills. Down by 15 with 4 minutes to play, they got up after some dumb plays by the Ravens and some brilliant quarterbacking by Josh Allen. My LV Raiders started with a win but I don't see them having the quality to make the playoffs.

The Mole reporting the Panthers are close to signing Cameron Kanaan from our juniors.

Fantastic musician and very funny man too. Was great on The Turtles big hits and then sang back up vocals with some huge names including T-Rex. The younger ones on the forum should You Tube one of The Turtles big hits like Eleanore or She’d Rather Be With Me.

Massive, massive fail.

No I’m done.

Agreed but you're missing my point. It's like saying "we took them too easy". When you're a rubbish club over a long period you have no excuses.
