    Taumalolo didn't need to scramble for any excuses. It was Fryday.

    Not Guilty

    Gobsmacked at the extent of the inconsistencies. The match review committee and judiciary processes are a roulette table.

    Presser

    Yeah no. I wasn't meaning to have a go at you GE by copying your intro, just poetically challenging the substance of Trent's calcs of what is required. If next year we have Trent's baseline four more wins (28 points) and our minus 109 differential we will be odds on to have a third consecutive...

    Presser

    To be fair ... and accurate ... It there's no admin decision to deduct 12 competition points from Parra, and decimate their team, then SIX more wins and a 160 POINT better for/against differential still has us missing the eight.

    Poor Match Fitness

    According to the article: Under Donny we had a decade of early morning starts, beep tests, hill runs, weight sessions, ice baths and coaches' sprays. Under Ferris the priorities were to have players feeling fresh in preseason, time away including family time, individual programs with reduced...

    Eagles Angel lets fly at state of junior rugby league

    Hop into the kid's shoes. Being slaughtered. Being the slaughterer. Being in a close contest. Which is most fun? When might you drop out? Where is the best growth?

    Eagles Angel lets fly at state of junior rugby league

    I was big for my age and LOVED playing up higher ages, when I was 9 I played each week against 12 year olds. One to two years up was perfect. It's an obvious solution to size mismatches.

    Brett Stewart to wing?

    If kick returns and dummy half runs are your real concern, then maybe think outside the square. There's nothing in the rule book that says fullbacks and wingers can't swap positions during play.

    Sad state of RL in Qld

    Rising youth suicide rates are far from limited to Rugby League. They are happening throughout society. It is a cultural phenomenon. There has been an ever increasing Americanisation of our society. i.e. Individualism, an obsession with looking out for number one, and with superficial...

    More match-fixing claims set to rock NRL

    Including banning the promotion of gambling by the NRL and clubs. It's a deficiency mindset that causes people to sell out like this. In the long run, and even moment to moment, deficiency mindsets never make people genuinely happier, less stressed, or more satisified with life.

    lol @ Chooks

    He wasn't give a 2nd chance. Gallop decided he couldn't because bar him because of legal issues.

    Matt Orford critically ill

    When he went down with a bad ankle injury the week before the 2008 grand final, he looked little chance of playing - and that might be season over for the team. He was that important to our attack. He somehow made it through, attributed the miracle to a product called pain away, and led our...

    How will we attract players

    Yep. It somehow doesn't feel as bad as the Northern Eagles years. And yet ... We're a good chance of finishing lower on the ladder than all of those years!

    How will we attract players

    Maybe. But if so, the bigger shambles last off season was self-inflicted. We'd had an horrendous injury run, the worst in decades, and we only just missed the eight. With a bunch of ageing stars well past their peak. And with an apparently disrupting clique that needed to be shown the door, but...

    Our aggression

    I suspect we'd agree many things contribute, and that to excel we need to improve them all. How I see these two incidents: 1. Once the ball hit the deck, Starling's prime focus had to be on helping us take that huge advantage. He not only totally nullified that advantage but gave the opposition...

    Our aggression

    Lussick has multiplied his value this year through SMART aggression. Dumb aggression cost us that game.

    THAT call

    Maybe so Dan. And it was a dumb play by Kapow. Just like the dumb hit by Starling. Together that's a 4 point turnaround in a 1 point ballgame.

    Come in spinner.

    He has stayed composed during the tough times, and publicly supportive of all his players. Loyalty breeds loyalty, so it'll be interesting how this pans out long term.

    Golden point vs a draw

    You'll then have winning draws, losing draws and draw draws. Need a foolscap sheet to show the columns in the ladder.
