    Roosters’ cap crisis could send star to rugby, and force half to rival

    Really annoys me when a club says it is happy to let a star player out of a contract to go to RU, but won't do same to let them go to another NRL club. It diminishes the NRL as a whole.

    Pre-Game Manly v Broncos [Round 10, 2022]

    I remember the way Manly went in the 1970s whenever there was a hint of rain, or even a report of a broken stormwater pipe on Pittwater Rd was enough.

    What the Sharks/Storm are doing well.....are we ??

    This is a great point. RU says there's no contest for the ball in league, but they are just looking at each tackle and play the ball when they say that. NRL teams are really contesting each other set vs set, not play the ball vs play the ball. Not that in the end that RU is that different...

    What the Sharks/Storm are doing well.....are we ??

    I also wonder if these push supports trend is the result of getting rid in the early 1990s of the attacking team having to be back 5m from the play the ball.

    What the Sharks/Storm are doing well.....are we ??

    Give the credit to Glenn Stewart. In the early 2000s halfbacks were quarterbacks and the forwards were doing nothing with the ball, until mid way through his career Glenn started ball playing with support runners. Now there's ball playing backrowers everywhere.

    How about DCE at the kick off! Echoes of Matt Ridge in the 1996 grand final. (At 6mins in this clip).

    Huge Performance Yesterday

    Definitely need to tighten up defence. But even Penrith showed in the last 15 minutes on Friday that no team can hold out the opposition if they have all of the ball. The best coached answer in NRL 2022 to the defence troubles is to make sure you keep possession of the ball for as long as you...

    [Resurrected] Ben Trbojevic hoping to follow in footsteps of big brothers at Manly Sea Eagles

    And actually Ben's first try was last year against the Dogs. Until the Bunker robbed him of it with a stoopid interpretation that went against more than 100 years of sensible kick return rules. See 3m36s.

    [Resurrected] Ben Trbojevic hoping to follow in footsteps of big brothers at Manly Sea Eagles

    I have to apologise, I thought Ben's career would be under the shadow of his more famous brothers, like Trevor Chappell, Dean Waugh or Zeppo Marx. Instead the tries Tom (left side corner) and Ben (right side corner) set up yesterday were mirror images.

    The Bunker: what a joke

    Bunker is so inconsistent. Gave a penalty try last night that was plenty of doubt. Last week gave Tigers a penalty and not a penalty try when just on halftime a mid-air contest for the ball above the try line ended with Dragons' Lomax trying to tackle the Tigers player, who bounced the ball...

    1996 vs 2008 Manly

    My fav Manly team was the 1995 side (not 1996). The way they played was just a joy to watch. Manly mid season 26-0 win over the Dogs was just a show.

    Other Games [Round 8, 2022]

    Storm and Penrith all have their 'legal' ways of getting quick line speed for themselves and the opposite of the opposition. Try watching the Eels every play the ball. They NEVER do it properly. Always getting a quick roll ball away and never getting fully to their feet. Didn't help last night...

    Lawton and Send off rule

    The Tupou tackle imo should have also taken into account that he had time and 20metres or more to decide how/where to make the tackle/impact on the Dragons player.

    Cross-Forum-Discussion Round 8 cross forum chat

    NRL rules give Warriors six again instead of penalty to kick for goal, then the NRL bunker gives a crazy head high which didn't warrant a penalty kick at goal. NRL needs a complete overhaul.

    Lawton and Send off rule

    The NRL thinks its running a footy competition. It has no idea that it isn't 1922 anymore and the NRL is actually a competitor in the entertainment industry for fans, eyeballs, sponsors and athletes. The 16 clubs needs to leave the NRL and set up a comp run with the mentality of the MMA management.

    Lawton and Send off rule

    So he's already in effect missed 1 game. Will that reduce the suspension? Or does the NRL treat you same if you're sent off in the 1st minute or the 79th minute?
