    News: NRL keen to know value of longer season

    The whole basic plan comes from the Tigers CEO. Humphries wants to abolish trial games and have them count towards the actual season.

    Newest rumor on the net

    If you are referring to Todd Carney's mum and Brian Smith the story is bs. The club wishes it were true cause it would let them release Smith easily now thatr he has done the housecleaning the hired him for. Smith's record is clean house, 1 successful year then fail miserably so they are looking...

    Hoppa signs with.....

    Can I point out 450k over 4 years is just over 100k a year, less than what he gets at Manly now... There is no way a kid who has played less than 15 first grade games gets signed to 450k a year. Thats what the Roosters pay Anasta and more than what they pay their rep players Pearce, Carney...

    2nd Brisbane Side

    Way too many American names in that list. All the QLD teams are already named after American sporting franchises, go with somethnig Australian and original.

    Roosters cap stories

    Unabashed admiration means nothing to Khoder Nassar who is the man really pulling the strings. Funny side story SBW got an adidas sponsorship and was told as part of the deal he could go to the warehouse and get whatever gear he likes, basically so he is seen wearing their logo. SBW shows up...

    Roosters cap stories

    Yesterday the story was "cashed up" Roosters chasing Sonny Bill, and I was surprised cause they have a lot of high profile players. Today the story is they are under cap pressure and have to unload up to 6 players. Which is it!? I'm tipping they are already over the cap (and as we all...

    Sandow signs with Eels

    Forgive me for not remembering the exact injury but he had knee surgery in the off season and it didn't help and had to go back for a 2nd season which ruled him out for the year. Word was a while ago he was unhappy at Eels anyway and was going to look for a get out to go to a new club in 2012...

    Sandow signs with Eels

    Just on this. I think Souffs showed what poor sports and how sour the club is on not resigning him. They had their CEO, owner and the club twitter about it in very unflattering terms before the Eels made it official. It has always been an unwritten rule that the signing club gets the right...

    Atrocious weekend

    Seriously I just watched it on delay. He was offside, knocked on and had a double movement? The other try was a no try to. What are the refs doing!? I thought it couldn't get worse than last year but this is horrible. Since Sheens worked out they aren't penalising late hits on the kicker...

    Whens Rodney Back/Goalkicking

    I think the thing we miss most with Rodney is the dirty work he does around the ruck. He was often seen cleaning up and doing all those little defensive things that no one likes to do. Our defense has been weaker without his tackle count. He will never be a flashy 2nd rower he gets noticed but...

    Cowboys v Manly-Warringah Sea Eagles R8 Teams and Chat thread

    I'm hearing same squad as last week with Robinson dropping off and T-Rex to the bench. Des won't make it official until the last minute cause that's his style.

    Dave Taylor

    I noticed the ball trow last week and thought it was bad sportmanship. Why be a douche and throw the ball at the back of a guys head after you scored on him. Just poor, celebrate sure, but don't be a tool with dick moves like that

    News: Will Nine Lose Their Baby?

    I don't think there is any chance Nine looses the rights completely. It is a cornerstone of the network and the CEO is a diehard fan. Since they missed AFL there is no chance they don't get a chunk of NRL. As for coverage I think it would be a situation of it being easy to bag Nine, but its...

    Tim Sheens is a hack

    Exactly. If Des was still a player it would be said that he "does overs" or "does extras" and it shows. He also gets the players to have faith in him and it play for him, there are only a handfull of coaches who do that and we are lucky to have one of them.

    Tim Sheens is a hack

    I think when he was at Cowboys he was sitting somewhere in the mid 30% win rate. In 9 years the Tigers have made the finals twice. I think I read somewhere last year when the Tigers were struggling mid year that he has only made the finals in !4% of his seasons at all clubs, but don't quote me...

    AFL TV rights deal

    Well in an interesting twist Channel 7 are paying less for this deal than they did the last deal. How is that possible you ask? Foxtel has picked up more of teh tab now that they are able to cover all games live but that isn't the crux. A big chunk of the rights deal is being paid by Telstra...

    News: Graham Lowe quits as Manly CEO

    I missed Gameplan, did he end up appearing or did he no show? If he did, what did he talk about?

    AFL TV rights deal

    Let them have AFL I don't want 7 anywhere near NRL. They can't cover sport to save their lives. Their directors are terrible, graphics tacky and worst of all terrible commentators. My prime example Tennis. Their coverage was virtually unwatchable most matches, off angles, annoying commentators...
