  1. Scotland should have been punted 10 years ago. One of the most basic requirements is having a regular comp of at least 4 adult teams. I don't know how often they've managed that. According to their site they didn't have a player of the year in 2020 or 2021 and they haven't announced the 2022 winner yet. Their 2023 season consisted of 9 games. Not 9 rounds, a total of 9 games.
  2. So, with no TRL around, the weekend got betterer. A Chad Townsend field goal in extra time got the Cows home. Xavier Coates scored a try, which Graham will have to change his signature pic for, to get the Storm home in the 79th minute and the Phins scored their highest score, biggest winning margin and nilled a team for the first time.

  4. I'm pretty sure Tyrone McCarthy is the only Englander to have won both the NSW Cup and the Qld Cup.
  5. I don't know. I tend to be very niggardly with my use of terms like "great" or "star" or "champion." I think it's easier for people to remember the halves, FBs and wingers.

  7. I don't think he's under the radar at all. If he ever came on the market every club would submit an offer. He has become a permanent fixture in the NSW and Kangaroos teams. There's not much more he can do.
  8. I missed both games and just watched the replays. I completely forgot about the Warriors game and I thought the commentator made a mistake talking about the Storm game as game 5 of round 1. A lot of the big names looked good in patches and, as always, I never take Round 1 too seriously. If I took Round 1 seriously I would be pointing out that Wests are already up to 9th position in their first week.
  9. In a Sydney lawyer's office today a 79-year-old man shot and wounded a 77-year-old lawyer. Phew! that's a relief. What moron would have assumed this was some beef between rival drug gangs?
  10. Louis Grossemy, Australian born and raised with French father, is on the extended bench for Souths this week. Given that the top 30 are off to Vegas, this puts him about 40th in line for an NRL spot. He has represented France at U19 (or maybe U20) level so he'd be about 20 now. I think he may also have played for NSW U18s. I think he came off the bench for 1 game in NSW Cup last year. He isn't listed on Souths NSW Cup player list but they may not have finalised it yet. https://www.intrl.sport/news/french-rabbit-nrl-rookie-to-play-in-euro-championships/
  11. Maybe the first "mail by mechanical airplane" would be a better description. Sending messages by carrier pigeon goes back 3,000 years.
  12. So did I just finished watching the condensed highlights. Season hasn't even started yet and you're already 1 minute ahead of me.
  13. Indigenous 22 Maori 14. I think these pre-game haka stuff are getting over the top. I question the wisdom of carrying traditional weapons out to the field. Particularly in the Womens game where some of the Indigenous women had bows and arrows. Who doesn't love a bit of historical revisionism thrown in with their rugby league?
