    Post-Game Discussion Raiders V Manly [Round 23, 2024]

    What a peanut. He did it in the first half too. Just sat on the ground refusing to play the ball and demanding a penalty. Who the hell does he think he is? Sam Burgess? Unfortunately for him it's not 2014 and he doesn't play for Souffs.

    Drop out rules change for us?

    Unfortunately this is correct. From lengthy observation it can only be concluded that the IQ of the game's officials is in the "borderline" category. Players, however, must be in a higher IQ category because they constantly outwit the officials with behaviour that wouldn't fool a five year old...

    Lodge, you Monster

    Yes, agree. The long runs can certainly distort the picture. It's the same reason why fullback run metres can be pretty meaningless as they can gain 100m in a match before they even meet a defender.

    Lodge, you Monster

    I thought the same thing so I decided to check the figures. They tell a different story: Cowboys ran for 2,277m from 46 sets = 49.5m per set Manly ran for 2,016m from 43 sets = 46.88m per set Not much difference. If you base the calculation on completed sets: Cowboys ran for 2,277m from 35...

    Quac dropped

    Not going to debate the issue of whether Jake should be in the SOO team or not. What annoyed me about Geyer's view was the way the media reported it. It was all: "Blues Legend Calls for Captain to be Sacked". Blues Legend, eh? It might surprise a few but Geyer played 3 SOO matches. That's...

    All NRL Games [Round 18, 2024]

    Great quote from an unlikely source. Corey Parker on the difference between the Panthers and the Broncos: "When the game is on the line, the Panthers walk through the fire." Maybe we should be lighting a few fires down at Brookvale.

    Origin - Your Thoughts?

    Then there's this bit: "Haas will start up front for New South Wales, spearheading a pack that features workhorse Tom Trbojevic, who’s been handed captaincy duties, and debutant Cam McInnes." LOL

    Game Day: Dolphins V Manly [Round 10, 2024]

    When I see Go manly has said Go manly I know it's game day. So I can only reiterate Go manly's Go manly.

    Post-Game Discussion Warriors V Manly [Round 6, 2024]

    I wondered how they got from being called Warriors to Wahs. After seeing Johnson's little performance I think I now know.

    Other Games [Round 3, 2024]

    Bulldogs: bought not bred. How is it possible for a club to buy so many top class players in such a short time frame. None of them are rookies. Many are stars in their own right. Only Taaffe would be considered inexperienced and even he had played over 30 first grade games for Souths before he...

    Probably been mentioned on this site many times, but Johnny Bliss was a speedster in his day. He won 12 Australian beach sprint titles in a row. In 1947 he was timed at 9.9 seconds over 100 yards in full football gear and carrying a football.

    Retro Sydney.

    Right up there with Wran selling off the land known as the M4 corridor. He effectively resigned Western Sydney motorists to nearly 40 years of traffic misery.

    Run Koula Run

    Donald: 48 tries in 68 games 2003-2005. Pretty good strike rate. Koula: 8 tries in 32 games. A bit disappointing but the service he gets is poor.

    Game Day: Manly v Cowboys [Round 20, 2023]

    So I guess another fair question to ask would be: are the Roosters really Cocks?

    Matt Lodge... Signed.

    I note some skepticism of his "enforcer" status. It certainly took a hit when the Panthers forwards singled him out for attention earlier this season. I'd say Robinson was not impressed with what he saw that day as he has only been picked 3 times since then, and now released.

    Haha. Me too! What a great day.

    Kyle Flanagan: Journos can't decide which fib to print.

    Surprisingly enough, it was all a total fabrication.

    Annesley's weakly "Why this happened" report - 2022

    He's in the bunker. Unbelievable. But...can he be any worse than Sutton who did the bunker for the Penrith-Souths game and incorrectly ruled 2 Penrith tries as "no try". That included one where the ball was on the ground and the Penrith player put his hand on it. What was he looking at FFS?
