Benji, beware the poisoned chalice: The good, the bad and downright ugly of Wests Tigers’ ongoing coaching debacle

Next Tigers game I go to I’m taking a sign that says
We’ll never forget you, Trevor Runciman!

Yep, one of the blokes with a kicking game needs to be your game manager. Regardless of the jersey number, that’s what we call a halfback.

RTS a cautionary tale for code hoppers, heavyweight stars slim down, Reece for Dally M: NRL Week 1 Trials Talking Points

Funny what a slight bit of confidence (or lack of doom) does for a team.

Certainly not putting him the success category either.

Yes there’s a new category which covers whether the ball would have gone backwards out of the hands if the hands were also holding a stubbie and a sausage sanger and Aunty Dawn is reffing with her glasses on.

Bit tough to say RTS flopped in rugby. His 3 All Black caps is more than many recent Wallabies would manage.

If yes, not much.

Trial Takeaways: Bunnies too strong for Dragons, Young taken to hospital, Raiders romp away from Eels, Cogger impresses

I really struggle to leave Suaalii out. But I don’t know.

Parallax error. My beer glass is shocking for it 😛

The older you get the few footy games are left for you to see. They all count towards that great premiership in the sky.

Give it a trial! How to watch the NRL’s Pre-season Challenge (without getting carried away)

Are you suggesting they’ll sign Sharon on a development contract, Tom?

Never mind the Bears, bring back the Dirty Reds

He wasn’t there to hold a hose, mate!

Twist in NRL expansion debate as powerbrokers say ‘Aloha!’ to Dirty Reds return bid

The Crips have already ceded several blocks.

Get Dirty or Get Down.

Bang a gong, get it on.

It’s a rather large simplification to describe the whole situation as ‘handout culture’.

Agree. Our prop salaries have to compete with NH prop salaries, and our outside back salaries have to compete with NRL salaries. (Unfortunately, Hamish’s first bid for Suaalii was $1m+ above the reserve price, that’s on him …)

'It's pretty real': Rebels coach reveals trauma as Waugh makes surprising 'no correlation' claim after job losses

Yes unfortunately it was fair weather support, to think the Reds were drawing bigger crowds than the Broncos that year is just amazing now … (strongly suspect a lot super rugby fans are super-casual)

'It's pretty real': Rebels coach reveals trauma as Waugh makes surprising 'no correlation' claim after job losses

He has no interest in playing the hero outside of WA.

The fact that the 2 “rugby heartland” teams in the 2 cities with a combined 6mill people are only attracting small crowds is the biggest failure.

Hey this is a safe space, TTN 😛

Old mate down the street isn’t a drinker so I’ll see if there’s a sober version of the story 😊

Tevita Farnham ... Pangai comes out of short-lived retirement for another crack at NRL

Yes I get what Waugh means by “no correlation” (and my guy feel is that he speaks honestly) but it’s an unfortunate choice of words. To someone with a (seemingly well-founded) concern that there might be a correlation, it looks either like weasel words or that he doesn’t appreciate the gravity of what is happening.

Ha, yeah good analogy 👍

Maybe the modern equivalent is electric scooter!

Tevita Farnham ... Pangai comes out of short-lived retirement for another crack at NRL

For sure Albo. But first step is his to take – demonstrate he’ll turn up for 20-odd weeks, not just 6.

If he demonstrates he’s fully committed then maybe. Otherwise it’s a bad example for the other rookies and fringe players to reward a bloke who turns up when he feels like it.
