At least it will free up money for the Broncos to bring back Lodge
'Pony up': Broncos must do whatever it takes to keep Haas as Origin star requests immediate release
It is swings and roundabouts. As fans its not worth the blood pressure issues to dwell on it. It’s human nature to remember every decision that goes against us, but quickly forget the ones that bounce our way.
Look at the game from last week. Parra won the penalty count 9-2, had no restarts against them, Manly lost a player in the final minutes, and that was when they went ahead (if the numbers aren’t right, they are close). Sometime this season Parra will be on the receiving end of that, and Manly will be the recipient in another game. Both fan bases will forget last week happened
Coaches are smart enough to know this. They do get emotional about it, but they also do ham it up to get into the refs and Annesleys head. Bennett was the master of it, Hasler isn’t bad at it either.

There is only a conspiracy against one team, and we all know that is the Bunnies. Even the club CEO is apparently part of it

“NRL CEO Andrew Abdo has floated the idea of following the NFL’s lead to mandate that clubs must interview Indigenous candidates when looking to fill senior operations roles, including on the coaching staff.”
A process that doesn’t work anywhere else in the word, but, hey, the NRL are the one organisation that will be different. The Rooney Rule is treated as a joke by the NFL owners

you’ve conceded 100 points over the last 3 weeks. That is the problem
Why rookie coaches are much better chance of winning premierships than recycled ones
Hunt is the 3rd best 9 in Qld and the 2nd best 7. As a result he will always be 14

The author must not live in Sydney. If he did he’ll know that the developers run NSW.

He is 27, he is experienced, he is, as you say, a level below rep standard. He doesn’t have major injury concerns and has another 100 games ahead of him
Based on supply and demand for these type of players he will get paid
It’s illogical for Lodge to attract high-priced contract offers based on actual performance
I still think Moses will win Dally M
NRL NEWS: Bird ends contract delay, Cowboys duo out, Smith 'embarrassed' by Storm, Herbie signs, Hynes surges
They can say what they would like, but the NRL do the draw, with the main goal giving every team a minimum number of prime time games. The Qld derby was obviously a game the NRL wanted on prime time. The Titans are again on next Thursday, and that will be their 3rd and final prime time game this year

NRL sets the fixtures, not the broadcasters. That stopped about 4 years ago

NRL NEWS: Lodge quits the Warriors, Best's gruesome elbow injury, Ray Warren may not return for 100th Origin
He thought he was returning to New York, not New Zealand
NRL NEWS: Lodge quits the Warriors, Best's gruesome elbow injury, Ray Warren may not return for 100th Origin
Feel free to point out where I “worship” Ray Warren, or even said anything positive about him. My opinion of him has not changed from the time he coached me to today. I won’t hold my breath waiting for it though. My post was a comment on Thompson, not Warren
I know tickets on the anti-Gould bandwagon are cheap and widely available, and snapped up readily by those who get told what to think, but don’t expect me to apologies for stating facts and opinions different to yours. I have seen how Gould works, I know the opinion his peers have of him, I know he is the sounding board for many in the game.

but he is still better then Matt Thompson

They had a positive rule – the 20min red card – and now they want to get rid of it
Reduce the value of penalties, and four more law changes that would be game-changing for rugby

'You had to be a smartarse': Dear Paul Vaughan, just like NRL players not all journos are 'the worst people'
Knights looked good, got over the line a few times. But that, coupled with Reynolds out, made them complacent and they paid the price
Does another home loss mean the end of the season for Newcastle?
We’re heading down this Klemmer path again? It was done to death last year and, like last year, his form does means he is well off contention. But it’s probably off post contact metres, because he backs into the defence, which defences like because it allows them to legally slow down the play the ball and reset their line
I don’t get the love for Koloamatangi.
Walsh is a better player then Ponga, but they will stick with Ponga
