Yes especially short kicking, has very nice touch. Can weight a kick as well as anyone.

'We gave up': Under pressure Arthur rages at 'part-time footy team' Parra as undermanned Dolphins run riot

Maso, congrats for taking on the sporting world’s most thankless task in your debut piece 👍

The most vexing question involves Latrell. I’d pick him at centre and drop one of Best or Edwards (then move Turbo to FB). Probably the latter move if I had to choose.

And Cam Murray doesn’t qualify on the basis of grit and effort? Tough call.

'Attitude and loyalty surpass strength and speed': The Blues need to 'out-Queensland' the Maroons to have Origin success

Fair to say he already has an elite passing game.

This happens in 72% of cases 😛

The NRL stat that isn't one, but should be: Working out which forwards really pull their weight

Yes edge forwards are hybrid forwards/centres these days. Hence few swap between the roles easily.

Do you have video of this Morgan Harper tackle?

Ironically, Twain didn’t say it.

Apparently he attributed it to British Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli.

Lies, damned lies and quotes 😁

Plus it has beer 👍

First, it assumes 1 tackle = 1 run metre.

Yes it’s a bit like adding Pat Cummins’ wickets taken and runs scored together.

And does an angled 10 run count the same as a straight up 10 m run?

And not just for his work rate but also his attitude / culture / call it what you will.

For example his chase back last night.

@Lux, Kid Congo Powers is in the country. Seeing him Sat week in Bris at the Zoo

Five things we learned: One area Gordon must fix to convince Wallabies boss, ABs bruiser should be on notice

I’m an atheist. Wally is close to a god, for me.

Injury-hit Maroons won’t panic over Origin selections but just sit back and laugh at Blues’ hullabaloo

Yep. No way I’d cop a boss like Annersley.

'F--- you': Insults fly after Des confronts Ricky as Annesley admits yet another blunder robbed Titans of victory

Or a fate worse than death – a ban from social media.

NRL News: Dragon says he was 's--thouse' and should've been dropped, Panther in social media strife

We’re lucky to have him.

In some respects, the ball-playing FB has replaced the ball-playing inside centre of yore.

Five and a kick: Joey Manu is not the Roosters' best fullback, unless they want to run him into the ground

Maloney and Harrison are essentially what Roy & HG are spoofing.

The Wrap: Crusaders' shot clock fiasco and shhh, don’t put the moz on Darby

Agree. Post-contact metres is useful, the rest I take with a grain of salt. And it doesn’t measure the metres someone does running decoys and supports, which MMW’s pieces show to be practically as valuable.

NRL Round 6 Talking Points: Concussion sub needs a fix, learning about 'disruption', why does everyone hate Gutho?

Yes discipline tends to drop when you’re under the pump or chasing the game.

I think the commentary mentioned SJ and DCE played each other as juniors. Would be great to see a photo of them, like that one of Dave Warner and Uzzi and kids.

Yes unless it’s on a Poly bloke, the man bun just looks plain silly. Or a ninja.

Ahhh yes forgot about the Walker Brothers! Must be something in the water out there 😁

I think it’s a bra with holes cut out for the nipples?

Judging by what I see (and have to avert my fatherly eyes from) at the beach, they’re no doubt popular.
