my pet hate is when commentators say a team up by 4 shouldn’t take the 2. Being up by 6 makes it a different game. Another penalty goal put you up by 8. It puts you in a position to kick a FG. The opposition scoring a converted try won’t lose you the game

The team that wins is the team that scores the most points, not the most tries. Tries are worth more simply because they are harder to come by

It takes two, baby: Understanding the great penalty goal drought of 2022

instead you’ve replaced it with Voss, Ginnanes, Ennis’, Roach and Alexander rubbish commentary

The biggest input of the CBA was them saying crowds will increase by 15%, based on nothing else other then population will increase, therefore patronage will increase .

The biggest issue is that it was rebuilt on the wrong spot. It should have been left as a green area, or even a carpark for the SCG. It should have been rebuilt at Prince Alfred Park, which is right in the middle of Central Station and Redfern station

public assets don’t get approval unless the CBA is greater then zero. The original one here was negative https://www.infrastructure.nsw.gov.au/media/1527/sfs-final-business-case-summary_web-version.pdf

Parramatta and Penrith only got over zero due to wild estimates of population growth affecting usage

It made financial sense, clubs were getting paid to play at Homebush

they don’t get crowds, and its part of the reason why the CBA was a negative number

Super Rugby crowds peak around 2005-06, and it’s about half of that now. They have been very cagey this year about releasing their numbers

yeh, it’s more a “local derby” then a “fierce rivalry”

Full house to be on hand for big western Sydney derby

There was a push for a 25k seat south west stadium, which would be the full time home to the Bulldogs, Tigers, Macarthur Rams and other local teams. But the NRL for some reason pulled their support for it

thanks, I couldn’t recall him playing City v Country, which would have been his level.

I was about to get upset with you but then I saw “The Bushranger” Kirk Reynoldson on the bench. Underrated player

The Melbourne Storm players who never played representative football

The problem is the cost benefit analysis for these stadiums do not justify any rebuilds. They released one for Moore Park which showed it was a waste, so they got a different company to do it again. The govt refused to release the findings of this CBA

V’Landys wants these rebuilds done without any CBA in place.

it’s an ego trip for the chairman

NRL Power Rankings: Raiders staring into abyss, a new team at top and are Dragons actually any good?

Matteson, Cartrwright, Rankin can all fill in at centre, leaving Brown at 6

Even the latter 2 can play 6. There are short term options

I’m struggling to find out which year the Bulldogs vs Roosters was that Alexander watched

melbourne have scored more in his seven games then Brisbane did in all of 2020

They passed him up for Matt Elliot

Arthur is far from a first grader, so if it’s not nepotism then what is it?

it seems as though Gus knows more then News Ltd reporters

'How bad do yers want it?': Addo-Carr reveals how Gus put rocket under Bulldogs in midweek rev-up

Second lowest scoring team in the comp last year. Second lowest scoring team in the comp this year. Four tries in their last 5 games

Now they have the worst defense (with a defensive coach), and its worst then a team that had 70 put on them last week

This is O’Briens third season. Their attack and defense has regressed each year he has been there. Last year was all smoke and mirrors, they won 12 games, but only 2 were by more then 10 points

What needs to change? The Loch Ness monster has been sighted more often then the million dollar man. Ponga, Gagai, Frizzell, Klemmer, and Saifiti are all rep players, Best is borderline, so the roster isn’t the issue

After another nightmare, things need to change for the Knights

best player in the team, they wouldn’t have a win without him. Keep him at 7
