No. I don't.
That seems a bloody weird reason to be banned.
I've barely ever looked at it so I'll keep it that way.

I actually don't think today's game was rigged. The NRL is driven by the television stations who want close cames that people watch for the entire 80 minutes to justify advertising revenue. The only games that are rigged are the Brisbane games. Nine needs Brisbane to win to get the revenue.
Never looked at it, but I think you were right, as I said during the game day thread " here comes the square up".
I got banned for pointing out that Willow was wrong once.
My mate (Coby, the original owner and shareholder) let me back on, then copped it from Willow again, told me I could get back in if I apologised to him, no thanks.
Assume you're talking about Willow? He's financially invested in it now, but not the owner/creator.

How exactly would you rig an nrl game like today? Im guessing your somewhat joking when you say that??
Too many variables for any possible rig on a game like that. How many players involved? Refs? Coaches? Refs can give as many penalties as thay like but at the end of the day each team has to take the points and that comes down to players scoring that try or kicking that goal in that clutch moment.

Think it's very easy to rig a Rugby League game. The game Is all about possession. Penalising a team for offside or stripping late in the tackle count is a game changer.

Thats just refs for you. Even up the penalties between teams so they dont look crooked.
Sides still have to do the job.

If it wasn't for the late disallowed Raiders try I would agree that it was rigged game. I haven't seen a replay yet but at the ground, I would say it was only marginally forward at best.
By the way, I feel really sad for Ricky to have lost twice to us this year in golden point.

firstly I would not penalize a side for an entire half of footy whilst making some dubious calls against the other side
