When a relationship comes to a conclusion, it’s nice to be able to say that the decision was mutual. Of course, it’s rarely true.
A story doing the rounds this week suggests the big wigs at the NRL have been listening to Beyonce – and heeding her advice.
Kalyn Ponga isn’t worth $1.5 million a season. Not even close.
So, will they be the South Brisbane Titans or the Perth Titans? That’s really the only question to ask after the Gold Coast’s shambolic signing of Justin Holbrook.
Word out of south-east Queensland is that the struggling Titans have one name and one name only on their shortlist of coaching candidates.
There’s been an ongoing debate in my house about whether the UK or Australia is more messed up.
If there’s one issue Phil Gould loves to harp on about when it comes to State of Origin – and there are plenty more than one – it’s not to pick your team too early.
To compare donating money to Israel Folau with burning a large pile of cash is completely unfair because burning money doesn’t tend to hurt anyone.
Here’s a theory: if Nathan Cleary played for any other club, he wouldn’t have a single State of Origin game to his name.
I’ve got a confession to make. I called Kalyn Ponga this week, asking if he’d like to come work for me.
“Always use the proper name for things. Fear of a name increases fear of the thing itself.”
It was supposed to be your week, Cooper Cronk. Your week.
So South Sydney get a million bucks in salary cap relief following Greg Inglis’ retirement? Sounds about right.
Latrell Mitchell has been all the talk this week after a sizzling display against the Wests Tigers last Saturday was followed by rumblings he’s not settled.
So, how bout that Israel Folau? Yeah, that’ll get people clicking in anger.
Phil Gould often makes me think of that famous (mis)quote from Mark Twain about dads.
At some stage in the next week or so Israel Folau will discover his fate. But if it’s this week, it’ll be late in the piece, primarily due to Easter.
Well this is a turn-up for the books: Andrew Fifita said something worthwhile this week.
And so, after just two-and-a-bit games, it appears the Knights’ experiment playing Kalyn Ponga at 6 is over.
Can The Shark take 30 seconds on the descent?

Any word on if he’ll be domestique for Richie at the Tour?

I don’t think he’s quite up to Nibali’s standard, but he’s handy on the descent.

Holy hell, you don’t just drop Vincenzo Nibali.

Valverde is in all sorts!

He says, as soon as Nibali launches a vicious attack to leave Scarponi in his wake.

Michele Scarponi – a former Giro winner is a decent domestique to have!

Reckon they’re doomed Brendon, or can one of them hold it?

Amador! What a legend. Would be happy to see him in pink for another day.

I’m backing Our Esteban to make the move too. He needs some serious time.
Reckon Suitsou and Atapuma can keep the gap though?

How’s the snow! Bloody hell, you could only imagine what it does to the lungs, sucking in that icy air.

That’s a shame, he’s been class these two weeks, attacking at every chance.
Earned his day in the jersey, and a bit of history.

And that’ll about do us for another night. Be sure to join us on The Roar tomorrow for Stage 10 of this fascinating Giro d’Italia, where just about anyone of about ten riders could very well win the overall!
