As a Kiwi living in Sydney, I would like to know the answer to Gregg’s question too.
Agony and ecstacy as Kiwis beat England
Scotland were ranked higher but if you look at the lineups you’d probably back the Italians. Heaps of NRL talent.
'Minnows' shine on the biggest stage
Marldon, you’ve missed the point by a fair way there mate. I’m merely pointing out that there’s a correlation between NSW teams making the GF and NSW doing well in Origin. And for what it’s worth, I’m from NZ.
Eels v Tigers is important for league in western Sydney
Yeah I might have been a bit cheeky saying Leichhardt is West. I’m sure most people in Leichhardt and Balmain would reject that idea too!
And Johnno – love your passion!

A Maori/Pacific Islands team is next on my list!
An Indigenous Origin team: a celebration
+1.
Plus people saying Maloney was picked because of his goal-kicking. Has everyone forgotten the sideline conversion Carney nailed last year in game three?
It'd be a disaster to pick Reynolds over Sutton
That won’t work, players already say the season is too long.
Does Origin have a used by date?
Don’t know why there’s even talk of building more stadiums. Brookvale, Leichhardt Oval, Campbelltown, Shark Park have some of the best atmospheres in the game.
No more stadiums for Sydney, the demand is not there
The randomness of this season is best highlighted by the fact that the Knights just lost – quite badly – to the Warriors but are still fifth on the table.
Crazy NRL form hard to predict in 2013
I’m not even a Tigers fan and I’m going.
Are the Tigers in danger of losing the Leichhardt faithful?
If they wanted to pay me for advertising, I wouldn’t mind.
NRL 360 is the best league show on TV
Johnson does seem to just hit it high and hope. No doubt he can give the ball a lot of air and distance, and he’s not too bad close to the line, but all in all, he’s lacking a bit of nous.
Once were Warriors, now are worriers
Brilliant! Ahh, that’s the one with Blocker Roach!?
What about continuous call??
NRL 360 is the best league show on TV
Yeah, Sterlo’s show is great. Especially like the one-on-one he does with players. The one with Todd Carney was awesome.

I don’t think Leuluai is working out at all, but I’m not sure of Godinet’s ability as a half. Tuimavave has potential but it would be risky putting him in the halves with Johnson.

How much planning do you need to go to a game of football?
Pre-season draw sacrifices quality for quantity
It came down to a solitary point last year. I wonder what would have happened if Ricky Stuart had stuck it out another season and built on what he did in 2012.
Listen Blues fans, let's not kid ourselves
Helps that Reynolds is playing behind the best forward pack in the competition. Johnson isn’t a leading playmaker yet and he’s definitely missing Maloney.
Once were Warriors, now are worriers
Please note, my maths is bad. Adam Reynolds kicked six from six. Apologies.
Bunnies go Beastmode to beat Roosters
