    LIVE GAME Round 6 spoilers

    Yeah, and it supposedly took a SECOND ROWER a month to learn Sheens play book... Yet a HOOKER, who touches the ball every play, was able to play six days after arriving and do well for the Gold Coast... "We have him for four years, I do not care about four weeks"... Sheens complete lack of...

    The Sharks would not benefit...except freeing cap space. But it would be a case of them deciding to do the right thing for Trindall. He is on back up money and stuck behind Hynes. Kade Dykes is their long term 6. I.e. there is no spot for him. They could force him to stay and have great...

    Great post. Thanks for the input.

    Commemorative jersey

    I have had multiple people message me today, including a die hard Norths fan in his 60s, all saying "your club is a disgrace". The fact it has now come out that the club did NOT consult the ADF...bought the dirt cheap generic stock photo themselves....and felt we, as fans, were such muppets...

    Commemorative jersey

    Grabbing a stock photo from Google for $120 was 'working closely'? No one spins stuff like Pascoe... Surely they could have bought a photo of actual Aus soldiers / paid something to the ADF for a uniquely Aus photo and done it properly?

    Magpies on foxtel

    Anyone know where Bula is? He has not been named in state cup (three weeks in a row)

    Team v Eels Round 6

    Wakeman and AD was the halves combo v Raiders in the trial when we clicked. Ironic thing is it is the ONLY combo Sheens has not tried so far in an NRL game... Someone explain the logic... We have had Api on bench...AD FB...Staines FB....Wakeham in / out...only constant is Brooks. He really...

    Sounds like? Where is that coming from?

    The pack v the backs...

    To be fair... His stats are still 80% of what he did at Parra... He is working...def not Blair again. But...he is outside Brooks. Yet to receive a pass into a hole all season / no soft hands pass to him / no half digging into the line. The fact his stats are still good IMO shows he is...

    What exactly happened in the 23 preseason...??

    A good example of bad planning... Matamura and Tumeth are great kids...but both got NRL deals despite being nowhere near physically ready. Look at Matamura putting his jersey on last night...he is genuinely fat / chubby / puppy fat. Tumeth is 15 kilos too light. Both are developing...but we...

    Adam Doueihi #227

    Has no mobility...watch him closely and he rarely bends / no flexibility. He looks like a prop playing FB...can't get across / can't get down. He is not a FB. His problem, and ours, is he is not a 6 either. He also lacks any courage...which I hate to say. Last week he had a chance to take...

    What exactly happened in the 23 preseason...??

    I mentioned pre season we had no halves...one injury to Brooks or AD and we literally had no one. They brought Wakeham in very late, but the planning was attrocious. They basically bet the house on Brooks and AD having career years 'and' not getting hurt. And now both are having career 'worst'...

    The pack v the backs...

    Good post, and I agree to some extent... But...our halves are killing our pack's energy. Our pack holds its own first 20 and gets down opp end...........only for it to end in a dud kick or nothing play. Opp races back to 20 m and takes a quick tap, our bigs turned around chasing after all...

    3 2 1 v Broncs

    He is def nowhere near NRL level at center. He has one D strategy which is to charge in and hope...i.e. the Nofaluma D tactic... and he can't pass. No soft hands. No draw and pass.

    3 2 1 v Broncs

    Agreed... I mainly gave Jake a point as Api was so poor. Really dissapointing. His stat sheet is basically 0 for everything...1 run. O assists. 0 breaks. 0 line break assists. Nothing. At least Jake tried. The 1 should prob have gone to Klemmer.

    Grubber kick into the in goal

    Yep, shockingly inept. Not a single person playing 1,6 or 7 has assisted on a try starting in opp 20 also. Statistically, our 1-6-7 this season are historically bad.

    3 2 1 v Broncs

    Unless I can't find it, no one has started a 3 , 2, 1 for tonight? 3 Blore: By far his best game for us. 110 plus, rock solid D, great cover, ran hard. 2 Staines: Tries non stop and runs hard 1 Jake: Only on briefly but still beat Api in most stat categories.

    The pack v the backs...

    Ice tonight 33/33...100%. Bateman 30 / 31...97% Blore (his best game for us by a mile) 24 / 25...96%. Between them our three backrowers made 87 from 89 tackles. Those are stunning stats. Stef and Klemmer both 100%. And what is even more stunning is the centers outside them, and the FB...

    Benji gets 'caught' texting.... How? How does Benji ring Pearce on Tuesday and we are a laughing stock by Thursday? Benji is great mates with the FOX staff after working there, especially Hooper. No prizes for guessing how...
