Just think of all the ‘white powder’ Val could have got for $25K. He’s on enough coin, the picture should have been him holding a key and just dm his mates to come round. Holdout cheapskate, that’s my takeaway out of this.

NRL News: Holmes learns white powder fate, Samoa make coaching call, Clubs kept off Strip in bid to avoid Vegas dramas

Hey on a side note, not doing a post try celebration this month could lead to further health complications and possibly death for Anderson and Stapleton. That’s a lot of pressure to put on the players. Same amount of class you can expect from a gambling company I suppose. If they have that much money to throw around why not just give it to them and not make a game of it.

And is it completely implausible that Hunt, like many players, would have a problem playing under a man who has historically proven he can’t be trusted. A person who abused his position of power by getting his players to inject illegal stuff, and then to prove how sorry he was violated the conditions of his punishment. I’m not traditionally a tut tutter, with offensive behaviour by 20 something men not at all surprising, but he’s a fully grown man who clearly doesn’t care about his players just results. Compare that to Wayne Bennett. Break that contract Ben, you’ve got 2 years left, maybe 3, don’t play for a creep like Flanno. If he didn’t work for Fox that would be the headline.

Dragons CEO responds to Hunt bombshell after star half confirms he wants immediate release

Straight swap with Chad Townsend. Chad can get the peptides he needs from his former mentor and Hunt can help us win another premiership. Please please please

Dragons CEO responds to Hunt bombshell after star half confirms he wants immediate release

That first 50minutes was hard to watch, by then I was bitter at rugby league in general. And so it goes the roller coaster. I don’t think Hiku should see out the year in first grade, and tbh Townsend’s looking a little flimsy. Strange to think we had the QLD centre sitting on the bench last year and couldn’t think of a way to use him. I like Todd Payton, but in my eyes his reign will be forever tarnished for letting a local superstar go in favour of an old run down mercenary. I hope they’re keeping Townsend to mentor that young half-back who’s meant to be the next big thing. And seriously, dropping Feldt must have been a gee up.

Jack de Belin hiding under your bed is the stuff nightmares are made of. I always check now.

Making de Belin captain of Dragons a sad indictment on a club that doesn't know what true leadership looks like

Haha, that’s the scariest you got? He’s a kitten.

Origin teams: Who the stats say Brad Fittler should be picking for Blues in Game 1

You cockroaches should just pick half the team from fullbacks and the other half from locks. Wait… once again you will drown in your talent pool. On the flip side, the only player for QLD that will play an alternate position to club is our fullback. I reckon blues will pick Luai, have Hynes on the bench, then bring him on when the game is lost hoping h3 will pull some magic out of his butt. By that stage QLD’s forward pack will have shredded their counterparts. Not one NSW forward to chose from isn’t a cat, save Haas, and Murray but he’ll be playing out of position. I like the author’s idea of Nat Butcher, but they probably won’t chose him as they’re still looking for the next Steve Menzies. QLD could select their forward pack spinning a wheel and not lose anything, not so for the blues this time. That’s what I reckon.

Origin teams: Who the stats say Brad Fittler should be picking for Blues in Game 1

Qld’s forward pack is going to be formidable. With Tino, Welch, Flegler, Cotter, Carrigan, Gilbert, Papa, Horsburgh, Collins, Arrow & Mofo to fit into the middle, and Capewell, Kaufusi, Fafita and even Luki for the edges. I can’t remember a stronger group of forwards available for selection. Kaufusi has, repeat has to be there. Whoever misses out will be unlucky, but it is 3 games and with this depth our forwards will go in like kamikaze fireball bezerkers!

Round 11 Talking Points: Rising stars put their hands up for Origin debuts ... but don't expect many

Am I reading this wrong or did Sticky say he didn’t trust the players in the same breath he was complaining how the RLPA didn’t trust coaches? Hmm, trust Sticky?

REACTION: 'They don't trust coaches' Stuart angry at independent doctor call, Ciraldo 'confused too' at player removal, Latrell set for PCL scan

You don’t recover from bipolar disorder, you treat it.

Love him or hate him y’all obsessed with Trell. Are all you tut-tutters even rugby league fans? You sound like white-washed mothers from 50s sitcoms.

'Not a good look for the game': Latrell and Wighton break silence on 'bit of fun that got out of hand'

Surely you just forgot SKD. I reckon Paul Bowman was one of the great defensive centres. He was like a giant tarantula latching onto his prey and sucking the fight out of them.

None more than Thurston.

Can Latrell become Indigenous Australian rugby league GOAT or is he just kidding himself?

I’ve never seen a player that copped punishment like JT did every week. Every team’s game plan was to smash him, and that was in a time where the kicker wasn’t protected like now, nor dropping the shoulder on the half playing at the line after passing. He just kept picking himself up game after game. For that alone I rate him the GOAT.

Anytime I see Matt Bowen in an article my heart swells. His highlight reel should be part of the school curriculum.

“The Rabbitohs were the second-best defensive team throughout the 2022 regular season compared to the Eels being tied for tenth.” You’re just making this stuff up. They’re 7th and 8th.

Analysing the best possible grand final match-ups

All signs point to cows in a canter, barring a massive choke or eels playing the game of the season. Souths v Penrith I reckon will be a highly intense bash up, and may well be their GF played a week too soon. I’m predicting a peaking cowboys side versus a beaten up Souths GF.

The Roar’s NRL expert tips and predictions: Preliminary Finals

I had them to win the premiership before a ball was kicked. Just saying… However I also have had them to win the premiership every year since 2004. Cowboys fans are usually an optimistic bunch.

I picked the Cowboys to finish 12th - here's how they proved me wrong

Bring on Friday night! This week is going so slow.

Booing Latrell doesn’t necessarily make you racist, but it probably makes you a jerk

Nicely put, but you lost me at “go the eels”.

“But the stick still stuck out”, pure gold Joe. To balance out this comment section, I love Latrell. He’s a joy to watch, as long as he doesn’t hurt a cowboys player. I can see how he made roosters fans unhappy (all ten of them), but isn’t that how we want roosters fans to feel?

Parramatta seem to get a tremendous roll on up the middle, especially with their offloads. It all starts with Mahoney playing very fast and flat. He’s very good at it but how many forward passes does he get away with? I count at least 3 a game.
