Both the NRL and NSWRL will never admit that rugby league's heartland is Queensland. Whether it's North, South, East or West. Every region in…
Have said from the time he stepped in for Cooper Cronk, that he isn’t an origin player. Time and again he has proven me right, even when Qld has won. He is very timid in attack & one dimensional, he leaves it up to other players to do the hard work. DCE doesn’t look anything like the player he is for Manly when he pulls on the Qld jersey apart from the occasional backing up. Ben Hunt would do a better job at half, we have seen him step up at origin level compared to his NRL form.
Is Daly Cherry-Evans Queensland's version of Mitchell Pearce?
Hi Tony, one guy I think you’ve overlooked is the other winger for the Cowboys in Tualugi who is the leading Cowboys try scorer. He is an outstanding prospect & has made that wing spot his own this year.
The young guns – revisited
Over the moon that Greenie has the job this year. Understandable that it’s only a one year deal as he would be looking for another NRL gig next season. Billy Slater is not ready to coach yet, he still needs to do an apprenticeship first, so hoping he becomes an assistant under Greenie. It’s one thing to be a great player it’s another thing altogether to be a great coach let alone a coach. Give it a little time but Qld is definitely heading in the right direction for the future. #MightyMaroons #Qlder
Queensland Maroons confirm Paul Green as new State of Origin coach
Pat is obviously a cockroach, has no idea about Queensland. Central Queensland based in Rockhampton would attract supporters from Gladstone & Mackay, inland to Emerald & would easily have crowds of 20 to 25 thousand a game same as the Cowboys currently do. The Titans being one hour south of Brisbane have averaged at least 10 thousand per game compared to many Sydney clubs that have only had attendances in the 6 – 8 thousand.
The Sunshine Coast North & Ipswich to the west of Brisbane are both within an easy 90 min drive, both with large populations of their own, negating the need for a second Brisbane team. As proven in the past Perth & a second Brisbane team have failed to attract support.
Agreed relocate some Sydney clubs out of Sydney but not in lieu of expanding the game into Queensland. In NSW, I can think of at least 4 areas that Sydney clubs could relocate to help not just attendances but the game itself, those being Coffs Harbour, Bathurst, Orange & Wagga Wagga.
NSW have to get it out of their head that they are the only state that matters, winning one State of Origin series is no bragging right after losing 8 in a row.
NRL expansion into Queensland is needed now
After reading this story, one can only summise that Joe doesn’t like David Fifita or the Gold Coast Titans for whatever reason.
I have more concern over how Kotoni Staggs is still eligible to play Rugby League. He has already racked up a number of indiscretions that have previously seen lesser known players to lose their NRL contracts. I may be mistaken but I understand that he still has a court appearance due.
As for the Titans paying for the security system & it’s installation, is a no brainer, so they paid for it with Fifita to refund the cost to the Club. How is this different from a friend paying the initial costs & then being reimbursed by the culprit?
Quite honestly there is no issue here, the Titans & especially Fifita have not been let off.
The only issue I have with this article is that it totally ignores every other indiscretion by players from other clubs who have gotten away with it.
Your better than this Joe and like league this year it is well below what the punters come to expect.
It's not the crime, it's the cover-up: Why are the Titans getting off scot-free?
