All NRL Games [Round 11, 2025]

Yep -- he would not last half a game on the field back in the 70's. He would get a few invitations to a few 'chats' out in the carpark afterwards, too.

He'd have had his clock cleaned a few times by now if he'd lived and played in any other era. All the 70's and early 80s really did was put the thuggery that went on on television which only highlighted what had already been going on for decades before.

The 70s in rugby league were really no more violent than the 60s or 50s or 40s etc. Its just that more people got to see it through television and somewhere along the line someone realised it wasn't such a great look.
 
geez, Melb are such an easy team to hate. Full of niggle, constantly in the ear of the refs, full of wrestling holds, they have holding down players to a fine art, managing to release just before they get penalized.

And then the part that really makes you hate them ... for the most part, that 💩 works. When was the last time Melbourne missed the Finals?? I think it was 2010 when they'd been done for cheating the cap.
