    2026 Rugby League World Cup fixtures - October/November

    I think it would probably kill the international game. I believe most would pick origin over Samoa/Tonga. These matches would then be back to the nothing events they were in the past with a bunch of 2nd rate players. Not sure many would care about the new 3 match series in this case.

    Western Suburbs Magpies - Proposed Lidcombe Oval Long Term Lease

    If you've posted in multiple threads because you just waiting for someone to give an opinion then, The logo is awful (just my opinion, others may love it). Anything where animals are anthropomorphised I think looks ridiculous and cartoony. The white chest on the tiger looks like it has a tank...

    He probably does finish the majority of chances created by his inside men in good ball. No more than most wingers. He pretty much scores the same tries the 'tank' wingers do, (through broken traffic) just with a different path to the tryline. He however needs more space created for him than the...

    He's never been a 'great' finisher. He is pretty good at getting low and keeping his balance to get over the line when given a little bit of space close to the line. But that is his only move. Great finishers have other options eg. Speed to burn someone on the outside, power to run through...

    To be fair to Turuva he massively exceeded my expectations of him when playing at centre early in the season. Overall though I tend to agree he wasnt great. Not sure if underwhelming is the word id use as I've been on the overpaid and overrated opinion since he was signed, so didn't expect much...

    Not sure but I'd think 450k probably is top 20 money for a winger.

    Phil Sami is grossly underrated on that list.

    Does he need to be to understand the song?

    The 6 Again: Flawed Logic

    At the time that 6 again was being discussed I was in support of the 5 minute bin as I do tend to agree 13 v 12 for 10 minutes can often be to big a penalty. The fact the binning only comes after multiple infringements or the cynical infringements takes away the wrong call element somewhat. Yes...

    Respectfully, I don't think it requires looking hard to see the faults in our anthem. No need for the ridiculous comparison. I understand the other side to the argument as well. If the song was written today with the exact same lyrics then I don't think there would be much to complain about...

    OFFICIAL Fonua Pole #257

    I'm not sure I'd say just going through the motions but he is yet to really kick on as I've been expecting. I want him retained as i think he is quite important to our squad balance as he is about our only genuine 'a' runner. Yet to improve on the other side of the ball as I'd have hoped. I am...

    The 6 Again: Flawed Logic

    I agree it is not always clear and obvious watching live. On replays it is, hence I very much dispute it not being auditable. Not passing on the reasoning is a failing by the broadcasters.

    The 6 Again: Flawed Logic

    Inside 10m is self explanatory. I guess Ruck infringement could be any one of multiple reasons (as touched on above) but surely most fans of the game know what ruck infringement looks like and can work out what type of ruck infringement occurred? I think if people watching at home don't know...

    The 6 Again: Flawed Logic

    I see arguments similar to point 1 often, but I very much disagree with it. We live in an error where live tv can be paused and rewound and every game is broadcast. Every 6 again decision is time stamped on the NRL website as is the reason for that decision. If anyone wants to audit any decision...

    The 6 Again: Flawed Logic

    You raise some really good points with the 6 again rule being done for game speed and television rights and questioning if it is impacting player welfare. You've not made any points in regards to match integrity as per your original post.
