Hey Paul, why are the cowboys and the dragons on the top of the table but almost last on your power rankings for round 1?
Looks like you are basing your findings on potential to win the premiership not what happen in round one.
Maybe you might need to change your heading….just a thought.

NRL Power Rankings: Round 1 - Small sample size but major concerns at a few clubs, Flanno back in style at Dragons

There are the laws of cricket and the English laws of cricket. The English laws are for them only and when it doesn’t suit them they whinge and boo like the cry babies!

COMMENT: Cummins failed the moral test and tarnished these Ashes. He had the chance to be a legend and blew it

What if Broad took the catch instead of Stac ?
Would we have two issues blowing up right now ?? bloody oath we would. Whinging poms….how about concentrating on playing the game instead of complaining I say!

Flem’s Verdict: Is spirit of cricket needed? It gives teams grey areas to exploit instead of accepting umpire's decision

Thanks Ben reverse satire here, not sure the other lads picked up on this ?
As an ex pom I now luv watching it here in Oz and have embraced the Aussie take no prisoners approach for the past 3 -4 decades….. isn’t that what sport and mate ship is all about ?
Not sure their coach, Broad and Stokes think they cannot have a beer after the series? That is in my eyes the un sportsmanship comments that no one seems to be picking up on.
Stay within the rules and play hard. Then have a drink with the mates and the competition after the event…. I wish I was 25 again!

The spirit of cricket was murdered in cold blood by sunburnt thugs - and the game might never recover

I have wasted 3 minutes of my life reading such utter rubbish from Ben Pobjie a so called expert?
You fail to mention that Australia had to take 21 wickets after Starc did actually catch Duckett yet you and the English press fail to even acknowledge this. Disgraceful and cannot wait when the Ashes are back in Australia.

Ben Stokes and the English media are hypocrites…. how can you say what Carey did was not in spirit of the game and then no one in the media or Stokes say oh, I say the catch by Starc to remove Duckett is not in the spirit of the game to allow an obvious error by the umpires ….where was Stokes on this occasion? Did he back the Aussies then. Of course not.

UK View: 'He didn't look like a leader. He looked pathetic' - Cummins caned but Poms also skewer 'dozy' Bairstow

Lets see if the Duckett let off comes back to haunt the Aussies? Got to blame Starc here as any B grade cricketer knows to keep the ball off the ground even if it risks popping out as you turn side on or forward in a roll. Easy for me to say I was only a C grade cricketer !
