Manu’s worth 1 million or close to it, if we’re chasing him
If we are going to keep a million aside in the hope we can get Manu a year early and upgrade Walsh to lock him up, we are going to be really tight on the cap. Unless our prop wings leave so they can be closer to their families

Last night noticed the Rooster are becoming Storm like in terms of gamesmanship. They were ****ing around in the ruck to slow it as long as possible by deliberately taking ages to untangle themselves from the tackled player. Their goal was to slow the PTB of the opposition by 0.5 of a second each play.

Gamesmanship has got to be my new least favourite word coming out of commentary while watching the NRL. Player starts milking... "bit of gamesmanship on show by the ______". Painful

Yes, all the tactics to slow the ruck down are increasing. These new rules are making the game more messy and **** me it makes it hard to watch.
How do these gifted athletes all of a sudden become unco in the ruck area. I've said all along all they had to do was enforce existing rules of playing the ball correctly and penalising the deliberate acts of gamesmanship to get a far superior game to watch.
I think I've watched 3 games this weekend and I usually watch all of them. I haven't missed it at all.

Another downside of the crackdown ,as far as income for the NRL, is people will punt less on the game. You can't trust that a team won't be cruelled by a ref with send offs and 6 again calls.
I like to back myself on the punt but not at the moment, it's just a guess right now.

Yep it is painful but nothing beats 'Goodbye!'

I hate that guy. He glorifies American-style commentators and thinks he needs a catchphrase. I mean if it’s a legitimate runaway try that’s 50m plus from a JAC or someone quick then sure, but not every ****ing time someone runs from 10m out to score. Total flog

Looks like it’s time again .....

****ing hate it when we become a team that has to rely on other results to go our way.

Every year man.....

I usually back SJ even though he is playing for the red neck bogans.

But the Tits are my team two so.....go the Tits.

Warriors fans, so feel a connection to perennial underdogs. Go the Titans!

So we have The Don (on Broncs' board because clearly there isn't a Titans one) and now two half fans across two other sites. The Don? If you put these two posters together, you finally have someone to talk to!
