I think it’s that way for a lot of people, not just athletes. At work I feel like I am in control, in my personal life I feel overwhelmed.

I am just a regular dude with a regular job and regular problems. Nothing like big man Haas.

NRL News: Haas' brother arrested on $1m meth charges, TPJ retirement questioned, Taumalolo set for Finals charge

Yeh I’d give Martin a 7.5 or 8. What he was able to do (plus Murray) then gave Cody the space required to weave his magic.

Blues player ratings: Dazzling debutants, Rabbitohs connection firing and a flying Foxx but where was King Gutho?

Look I’ll admit I didn’t care at all until that first Best no try.

State of Origin hasn’t been much fun this year. Injuries and disappointments. Hopefully next year the coach can pick the best players available for the whole series and not just for one game.

'People will go home and remember that forever': Why Fittler's hope for Blues future rests in blistering backline

Because at present I do not believe there is an insurance scheme to cover their injuries post playing career. If the game can’t pay for the health of their professionals, that ain’t on.

'Gorging on the game’s own meat': NRL and RLPA not reading the room as fans in the real world struggle to make ends meet

Cody made Teddy look like Teddy again

ANALYSIS: Cody Walker stole the show in Origin III - so why didn't Freddie pick him earlier?

I didn’t know I was paying more for my membership than Parra fans. The hat was ok this year. Scarf was a bit short haha

The data deep dive: who is actually the NRL's most supported club?

Nail on the head about the change rooms

The excitement is gone - State of Origin is a damp squib

I like the interviews from training. Dunno if the rabbitohs or the media are responsible for them

Yep when I was a lad and I learnt about why rugby league existed something clicked. If someone does work that generates profit they deserve to be compensated for that work.

I back the players over the league.

Balmain is the heart and soul of the union movement hehehe

Players launch all-out media boycott against NRL as CBA negotiations take dramatic twist

I need Sheens next to me a work sometimes. Water off a ducks back

The right pressure at the right time will hopefully make change

My values are rugby league. Be that in this nation or another. Men or women. I just love it.

State against state, mate against mate. That is the pinnacle of rugby league

Freddie’s Cooked: How tactical blunders, selection mistakes and a failure to learn doomed the Blues boss

It was a highly entertaining match.

The 5/8 for qld was insane. Speed, positioning, passing and a fend.

I love rugba leege

ANALYSIS: Origin history made as Maroons lose match but win Shield on points aggregate - now give us three games!

Hahaha Ricky Stuart is not a kind human. I would not trust him with anything of value.

Sticky Situation: Who should take over over from Brad Fittler as NSW coach?

If you indoctrinate humans before the age of reason they are far more susceptible to hold that belief later in life.

Belief is not a choice. It is a product of your brain and experiences.

People will bend the book or their experience to match their brain.

I wonder if he had sex before marriage or has ever committed adultery

What’s that mean matey?

I am of the belief that if mcdonalds did what the catholic church did they would be out of business. Dunno why we give a mob that doesn’t pay tax a pass.

Choose your own adventure as some say.

“The bare reality is that Aloiai is a homophobe and uses that part of the Bible as convenient cover. If all Christian leaders came out and said “gays are fine. the bible is wrong about this” then it’s extremely likely he would still be a homophobe anyway, just without the convenient cover of the bible.”

This here is the harsh truth. Its the same for racism and misogyny.

Yes it’s a poor place to look for your morals which is why these blokes are so off in their assessment of reality.

I like to take the position that gay people are real and god isn’t so I am going to defend reality every time.

And with what I would regard is a weaker coach.

NRL players don't have to be squeaky clean but Warriors taking gambles with ill-disciplined recruits

That’s a good point. To perform at the highest level you either need to have a clear mind or do lots of pingas like Joey
