    NRL What was the best State of Origin series ever?

    tbh the game where nsw were down 4-2 or 2-0 and missed a penalty from 50 to tie it up. QLDs run was sad for the game. Especially considering the first half of the run had a lot to do with Greg Inglis.

    Do GWS have a bright future?

    I dont get this attitude. Its not about being a snob its about having limited time and spending what time you have on the better product. Its the same with all sports, people watch the best / better leagues, same with the AFL compared to lower leagues. Its not about being a snob its about what...

    Do GWS have a bright future?

    Yep, AFL/Soccer players are so athletic they would cake walk over NRL, SR, American football players and NBA players with their combination of size, power and strength. :P Skill tends to be different in each sport and rarely transferable.

    NRL Round 13 Discussion

    As a raiders fan, I agree with a lot of what you say. - soliola decision he reefed it out and it went backwards. - paulo, I agree that it was knocked out by a manly player but not really a strip, the strip penalty that cost us against manly the first time round against tapine was much worse.

    State of Origin 2017 NSW vs QLD SoO Discussion Thread - QLD win 2-1

    Maybe originally his name helped, but after 10 losses out of 11, you are right, he is not getting picked on his name. He is getting picked because he plays for the roosters and the roosters are going well and he is looking good in that setup. Last night was easily his best origin performance...

    State of Origin 2017 NSW vs QLD SoO Discussion Thread - QLD win 2-1

    Are you an easts fan? I think you hit the nail on the head with Tupou and most teams will have at the very least one or two backs with some good strike rates. Given how strong the chooks record has been over the past 6 or 7 years with a few GFs , minor premierships and premiership, probably...

    Indigenous round, Dreamtime at the G just tokenistic .... ??

    A strange piece, to quote Tom Heenan, "They have given white Australians more than they deserve and it’s about time we honoured them and their game in a more meaningful way." For someone who sees australia as a divide between white Australians and aboriginal Australians, referring to them like...

    State of Origin 2017 NSW vs QLD SoO Discussion Thread - QLD win 2-1

    if not pearce then maloney / reynolds maloney / moylan maloney / hayne Pearces major problem is that he doesnt play wide very well, he has a very strong direct game and short ball game. But if QLD do there home work and run a tight defensive line leaving space on the edges pearce is too much...

    Expansion ? How important for AFL to be first and only true National competition by including Tassie + NT

    What the Tasmanian AFL side arguments miss, or fail to answer is. Why would the AFL spend resources (split the tv pie further) to put a side in a place where they already receiving the eyeballs and support? If they are going to spend resources are they not better spending on converting heathen...

    State of Origin 2017 NSW vs QLD SoO Discussion Thread - QLD win 2-1

    I would play adam reynolds at half or jimmy maloney at half with either hayne or moylan at 5/8 Pearce is definately a no go. but as he hasnt had a crack at a dog this year he will get another run.
