Bonza was forced to follow Cronulla since childhood and fortunately suffers from selective memory loss. Last Origin recollection is the Bryan Fletcher hand grenade celebration.

Let's take a little break from bunker misery, shoulders and if this grub is grubbier than that grub. Watching the Titans this year was…
Yep, it's January and I'm thinking of State of Origin. Who isn't? Cricket let us down badly this summer, its role is to distract…
What an absolute flog with a ridiculous sense of self-importance.
COMMENT: BBL Pom's disgraceful ump incident deserves bigger ban - and shame on Aussie icon for 'both-sidesing' it
Wow, at last for Tigers fans. The train wreck responsible for coach after coach being punted, bizarre roster decisions and general incompetence has finally gone.
I’d be headed straight for Dick’s Hotel for a few cold ones.
There just might be good times ahead.
'It's about time', 'best news in a decade', 'thank god': Legends' glee at Tigertown carnage as Wests sack board
Is it just me, or does 8 years seem like a very long time for Olakau’atu – and for that matter any player?
Especially as a player who relies a lot on power, how effective will he be when he’s nudging 30?
Always intrigues me – 5 years at the most would be best for everyone.
Good luck to him.
2024 NRL Transfer Centre: Panthers star picks Tigers over Dragons, Cowboys sign young gun but Dolphins poach another
100%. 2 big, aggressive middles for the ole 1/2 punch.
Wouldn’t say no to a slightly mad backrower either, in the Ben Kennedy/Liam Martin model.
Pressure Points: Craig Fitzgibbon has proven himself in the NRL – now, he needs to show that Sharks aren’t flat track bullies
Mainly because every team needs a “character” or rascal.
Chooks had Fletcher, Broncos had Alf and so on.
Eight-time premiers: Who makes Manly’s greatest-ever team of grand-final winners?
Love me a “Greatest Ever” list to get me through the seriously dull late November/early December period.
Hard to disagree with any of these, especially like Snoz on the wing. One of the better outside backs of the 80s and can kick goals under pressure.
Possibly would find room for Fatty, although that would be for his off-field contributions as much as anything.

Ha ha, yep not knowing anything about a subject doesn’t stop them from talking about it.
Or me and my mates, for that matter
CHAMPIONS! Head's heroic ton, bowling brilliance sees Aussies crush India for SIXTH - and best - World Cup win
Bloke in a Bar said the same.
The sudden silence would’ve unnerved Indian players

Not trying to be smart but they are the best team.
The best team in every sense – fielding, bowling, batting, everyone chipping in when it counts.

But preferably when it’s in India 😁

He’s a brilliant captain. Always thinking and aggressive.
Plus he leads by example – gets the big wickets and aims up with the bat.
Dare I say it, AB or Tugger esque?

Head’s got that rare cool head in big games because as you said – he seems to treat it as a game. Never seemed nervous which had a great effect on Marnus.
I was sh%ing bricks when we lost 3 wickets but he didn’t appear concerned.
His century was magnificent, but that catch…wow

That was exactly the innings I hoped Marnus would deliver. Stay in there, don’t be silly.
Great to watch the silence.

How good was the silence!

It was eerie / fun watching the silence when Australians hit boundaries or took wickets

I’m going to say it – that was one of Australia’s better sporting moments.
To block out the noise of that crowd and win was immense.
Can’t wait to watch it all again with that beautiful feeling of knowing you won.
Very happy with how Marcus kept his cool and let the legend do his stuff.
Am naming my next child Travis, regardless of gender.

In front of that crowd and weathering that aggressive start…that’s got to be their best win.
Bit dusty today and am praying for a Bob Hawke holiday

Heard someone say the Broncos’ pack won’t have it so easy on Sunday. Fair enough, but neither will the Panthers. Both mobile and super-aggressive.
Hoping for one of the better GFs we’ve seen in a while, because I can’t see either team backing down, even if trailing by a fair bit.
And if the Lions and Broncos get up, I’m taking the week off and heading for the Valley.
NRL prelim finals talking points: Why Broncos have the firepower to give Penrith a run for their money
To be fair, 3 of their best players (Reynolds, Haas, Staggs) are Blues, so you’re off the hook.

Watching Wales play showed that good attacking rugby is still possible.
Sharp passing, great line running and some initiative with a chip kick.
Australia have plenty of young players who can do all that – the trouble is, they’re headed straight to league or Aussie Rules.
Rugby has been a hard sell to kids for the past decade and this will make it even harder.
'Bloody disappointed: Wallabies OUT of World Cup as nation to miss finals for first time, Eddie fights for survival
I’d argue the Chooks have the better pack – other than NAS, Melbourne’s forwards didn’t offer much last week.
As much as had been made of the Roosters backline outs, the Storm backline is also pretty underwhelming.
Plus Easts have a very decent spine and no Hughes for Storm.
Mad Monday at St Kilda Bowls Club, great day out.
Tactical Preview: Teddy and the North Sydney Bears should be a picnic for the Storm - but can the Roosters' D see them home?
Dykes would be ideal, you’re spot on.
Yeah Iro is an outside back.
Possibly Tracey to 6 if Kennedy back and even Talakai to the bench for Iro.
But Nicho back hopefully next week.
Ricky will have Raiders up and about
Shoulder injury a downer after perfect Ponga delivers eighth win on the trot to lift Knights past Sharks into fifth spot
Wonder when / if the likes of Kayal Iro will get a run to add some spark.
Can’t see any reason to include Moylan from here on
Shoulder injury a downer after perfect Ponga delivers eighth win on the trot to lift Knights past Sharks into fifth spot
Hats off to the Knights, they just outplayed us. Dangerous on both sides and aggressive pack.
Not even Nicho could’ve saved that.

Pretty bloody sad.
Must have been tragic for a man so renowned for his strength to be so decimated by disease.
Great player, absolutely loved his aggression.
