Missed the game, just saw the highlights.
He so clearly advanced the ball it could never be a try. If it was any other team, it would have dominated the news and headlines, but nothing. Nothing at all.
Apparently for $700k per year, $350k over 3 years more than what Cronulla were offering him.
So let me get this straight. A young, up and coming premiership winning, NSW representing utility offered under $600k to stay at the Sharks, and we offered Moses $1 million per season?
And Teddy is...
MMM playing guess-the-funny-laughs earlier. Mark Bosnich, Kerry O'Keefe and Johnathan Thurston were the ones with the funny laughs, but after JT's laugh, Tony Squires said "JT has just heard that Mitchell Moses wanted $1 million per year".
:roll :roll
Some months ago I noticed that our defence fell apart whenever the big fella left the field. It was only after this that I started to watch him closely in defence, and then I realised why.
Not only does he have a presence in defence, but he also controls the ruck very well, and never switches...
I heard a rumour that the NRL wants to shut down the Tigers so they can move Wests to Perth. Don't usually believe such things but someone leaked report to media, media ran non-story for 2 weeks, refs penalise us for no reason and we go from world-beaters to cellar dwellers in a week. I guess...
By tomorrow this may be too late, so here is a draft petition to save Mick Potter as Wests Tigers coach.
"We believe that Mick Potter should be given the opportunity to see out the full term of his contract. The club has undergone major upheaval in the last 12 months, with the 2013 season being...
What I saw of the game, missed tackles does not do justice to our lack of effort in defence. If a player doesn't reach out to tackle, or doesn't chase, where does it show up in the stats? Without Reddy there to get repeatedly stood up, there is no excuse. It looked like a bad game from the 80's...
Jason Taylor today wrote a very good article about illegal obstructions, pointing out perfectly how Hodges Origin try was far from legal.
Comments? Apologies - the link is for the mobile site.

Not a fan of his carrying on like a pork chop since coming back to the NRL, but he was certainly hard done by in light of the charges against him being thrown out of court. The following article makes the police look a bit silly not checking the veracity of the accusations in light of the...
On the Sunday Roast this afternoon they were debating the merits (or otherwise) of the no-try ruling in Origin 3, as other tries are now being referred to the video ref as a result.
Gus, MG, Vossy and the other guy (there for unintended comic relief) agreed that the Thaiday incident should have...
Never heard this one before, but Kearney angrily denies signing Willie Tonga and Farah in today's Telegraph. We've seen the Tonga rumour before, but Farah's a new one :wtf
Things are pretty bad if Farah's flying the coop too. :cry:
Just had some bad rumours confirmed by a very good source :open_mouth:
The first is of a personal nature so i won't describe the nature of the rumour as it could be slanderous. Needless to say, it has upset the core of the team, but it is pure speculation as to whether this is the cause of the...
1\. Effort
2\. Kicking
3\. Selections
1\. Qld always give 100%. their enthusiasm ALWAYS is much greater than NSW with the possible exception of Gallen. Not good enough NSW!!
2\. Slater kicked better than all of NSW! He's what, qld's 4th kicker? We kick down their throat and they kick the ball...
Minichello 1 deadset shocker
Morris 5 ain't no Campese
Hayne 7 dangerous and solid
Gasnier 6 ineffective
Uate 6 quiet but good setup for Bird
Soward 7 strong game
Pearce 3 worst game at Origin many mistakes
Bird 7 always stands up a QLDer
Stewart 6 never looked dangerous running out wide
Creagh...
