Rats beat Easts 37 - 24.

A few posters on here have been saying we pretty much have a top 8 side for 2026 with KPP coming. Today was a real litmus test for us I think and we came a creditable second. I reckon we need three quality first graders to come in for us to compete for the 8 next year. If we have Sukkar, Twal...

And the sad thing is prime whinger Stuart won’t have a word to say in the presser. He’ll whinge his head off when they have a bad day with the refs but won’t have the good grace to admit they got a good run today.

You wouldn’t think so. I blame the club most for not putting a competitive team together. Noddy hasn’t shown he can coach either with the NRLW side or in his short stint with the NRL side. Lovely bloke who has suffered real personal tragedy but coaching doesn’t appear to be his go. The women...

Looks like another spoon on its way to the WT trophy cabinet. Poor season from the women, the club and the coaches.

Roy Masters very nearly lured Choppy Close to Wests back in his heyday. Apparently Close reneged at the last moment. What a buy he would have been. Very close to equal to Meninga going to Canberra I reckon.

A guy called Gary Sullivan played second row for Newtown. He was as tough as teak. He and his stepfather pulled off 14 armed robberies netting over $3m in the 1980s. A lot of Newtown players were either cops or robbers.

Thanks Hal. I can never understand blokes who do the dirty on their mates. You shouldn’t do it to anyone but doing it to your mates is just the lowest.

Thank you so much @tiger_one. Gee he turned out to be a grub didn’t he. Must have been influenced by his time at Souths and Parra. Playing for them will do that to you.

And there in the Souths jersey looking on is ex-Enfield Fed and ex-Magpie, Denis Pittard. He was a great player but what happened to him after football is a bit of a mystery. I read somewhere years ago that he got mixed up in the Nugan Hand Bank, a merchant bank that operated in the 1970s and...

Or you could save yourself time and anxiety and raise the average IQ of the country and drop off the perch yourself. Just a thought.

I think you mean cojones. A kahuna is a priest or important person in Polynesian culture. You wouldn’t be able to carry two of those around.

I recall him making the sign of the cross after his try. Surely that’s offensive to atheists as well as many non-Christian religions. This must be referred to the NRL and action taken. Must not offend anyone, anywhere at any time.

I won't argue against your first and second points, they're fair comment. But I couldn't agree more with your third point. How in hell's name was that a penalty to Manly. The Manly player was directly in line with our first receiver on that side. What was Api supposed to do? He could either...

I love how the commentators were feeling sorry for poor, confused Turbo. Note to Tom - if it ever happens again, tackle the one with the ball. It's not that hard.

Can’t watch live but the defensive effort on the Kouia try is just about the worst defensive effort I’ve ever seen.

Great effort by our women. Toughed it out.

Scored 3 tries last week in KOE.

Fair call. I was not aware of your situation and should not have judged. As someone who has had to medicate for over 20 years myself, I sympathise and, you’re right, a laugh is always good medicine. Best wishes to you mate.

Mate, maybe this was an attempt at humour but, to me, it is in extremely bad taste. The people who have opened up here are incredibly brave and are trying to help others. Your attempt at humour comes across to me as ridicule.
