About an hour or so ago, Ben Te'o, one time Wests Tiger, scored the winning try for ENGLAND against France in the opening round of the annual Rugby Six Nations series in the northern hemisphere. The six nations involved are England, Ireland, Wales, Scotland, Italy and France, and its a great...

I just woke up to the news that there has been another terrorist attack in France, this time in Nice, one of the popular tourist spots. Someone has driven a lorry into the crowd watching a fire works display to celebrate Bastille Day, the national day. Over 80 people have been killed. Nice is...

I was reading an article on ABC Grandstand that rated Potter as second most likely coach to get the chop mid-season, after The Dragons' Steve Price. The article said that he alienated a 'fair chunk' of the players last season. Can any of you tell me who they are talking about. Benji...

When I registered for Finals Fantasy League I was put in a league that currently has only 3 members, so if you are looking for a last minute sign up, the league is 378074. I have no friends!

When Bulldogs forward Corey Payne received a phone call telling him that he was in the running to be named NSW young Australian of the Year, he thought it was a prank from one of his teammates. The 28-year-old had been recognised numerous times for his work with the University of Sydney and the...

It has occurred to me that we have led at half time only about 2-3 times all season. We led Souths in round 5 and Canberra in round 8, I think. Do any of you have accurate figures on this? It's a miracle we are in the 8 with such a half time record. Wake up in the first 40 minutes Tigers!

We live in Paris now, so were able to attend the France v Australia. Without giving away anything, the following things emerged from the game: Robbie looked confident and relaxed. He kicked well out of dummy-half. He made a lot of tackles and had at least one try-assist. He went close to scoring...

We have two great young centres in our team. Lawry is generally regarded as a marquee player of the future, and Ayshford shows speed and a good football brain. But neither of them runs 50 metres a game because they hardly ever get the ball. Two questions for the minds on the forum - what is it...
