  1. Once Was Brissie Kid

    All NRL Games [Round 21, 2024]

    Dolphins first try was a deliberate knock forward, even if he regathered the ball himself. Was always a penalty in the 1970s & 80s until Mick Stone decided to invent a new rule. Another NRL blowout. Why fans go to games and sit thru this rubbish is a mystery. It won't continue. Ch9 will be...

    Post-Game Discussion Roosters V Manly [Round 21, 2024]

    Seems the Saab tackle by Jennings was sin bin worthy. Two weeks suspension with an early plea. https://www.nrl.com/news/2024/01/01/nrl-judiciary-report-latest-charges-suspension-news-and-details/

    And a Raiders team with Jamal Fogarty will be a handful for Manly.

    Has the NRL clarified a home game for 5th or 6th placed Manly can be at Brookvale.

    Pre-Game Raiders V Manly [Round 23, 2024]

    Manly has never won a game with Burbo as a starting centre. I think last night was the fifth such time (2022 x 3 / 2024 x 2). https://www.rugbyleagueproject.org/players/ben-trbojevic/summary.html

    1977 Manly

    Some good Manly tries and Brookie crowd shots (especially the close up at 8:37) amongst these 1977 comp highlights. Geezus how fast was Russ Gartner (17:14 try).

    Pre-Game Roosters V Manly [Round 21, 2024]

    All i know is Roosters, Storm and Penrith try to win games inside the first 15 minutes by starting super fast and trying to gain overwhelming momentum and points. NSW succeeded in doing this in Origin 2 under the same referee in charge tomorrow night.

    Yesterday was a community jersey design. It does echo the late 1990s, but i never saw anyone reference it last week.

    No idea why, but these touchline hijinks just keep reminding of Freddie and the yo-yo.

    Imposing suspensions is such an archaic way of dealing with a player in a professional sport. Imagine a top Broadway musical and the star gets drunk after the show one night. Are they going to suspend the star from appearing in the next 3 performances of the show? Never. They deal with it...

    Pre-Game Manly V Titans [Round 20, 2024]

    Olakau'atu holds Eels player Shaun Lane in a tackle and DCE's late involvement ends with Olakau'atu suspended for 2 games. DCE tries to put Luai in his place and it ends with spectator Olakau'atu suspended for 2 games. Third time's a charm, eh boys.

    The great expansion conundrum....

    Bob Fulton always said there are plenty of players, but the problem is every team has 4 sitting on the interchange. In other words, in the current NRL that is 17 x 4 which is 68 players who could be the basis for 2 or more new teams. Get rid of the four replacements and go back to 13 players.

    Seibs & Turbo didn't tell Manly fans to show some respect to Des. They said Des is a legend of the club and everyone will welcome him. At 5:10 in video.

    If DCE gets injured Humphreys will get a lot more #7 before the season is over.
