Graham Posted January 1, 2021 Author Share Posted January 1, 2021 Sorry about the rogue apostrophe that somehow crept into my original McInnes report. (should of course be West's Tiger's ... only joking Wests Tigers. He was tipped to be a good choice as one of the two hookers needed in Supercoach. I had him in my team for a long time and he served me really well. I seem to remeber only swapping him for Harry Grant when he became such good value that it would have been daft not to. Surely Dragons will do all they can to keep him? The Australian Rugby League Forum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham Posted January 1, 2021 Author Share Posted January 1, 2021 Quote The NRL has imposed a one month’s suspension on Penrith Panthers player Brent Naden, backdated to the date of his provisional suspension. Naden was originally stood down on December 1 after testing positive to cocaine on the night of the Panther’s grand final loss to Melbourne. Naden did not contest a Notice of Alleged Anti-Doping Rule Violation in relation to positive samples for Benzoylecgonine and Methylecgonine (metabolites of Cocaine) collected from him following the NRL Grand Final on 25 October 2020. Seems he got off lightly! I'm not aware of what these drugs are. I'm taking it that they are recreational rather than performance enhancing. I think this must be the case due to his light penalty. Basically it means he's had his wrist slapped and his club say he now knows how naughty he has been ... and can resume with them as per normal.

Graham Posted January 1, 2021 Author Share Posted January 1, 2021 Old news? This I missed somehow with Christmas a couple of days away: Quote Brisbane Broncos star Xavier Coates could reportedly be eyeing a move to the Melbourne Storm in 2022 after a secret meeting with Craig Bellamy. Bellamy met with the 19-year-old and his manager at the Coolangatta coffee club on the Gold Coast on Tuesday. According to the report, Bellamy was attempting to convince Coates to join the Storm after his contract with the Broncos expires. That Tuesday would be 22nd Dec by my reckoning.

Maybe fresh fields will be good for him. He did a lot of hard work last season, but didn't see much action near the try line. But his 2020 was a lot better than his 2019 (coming back from a season-ending facial injury in 2018). If he gets good ball in attacking positions, I think he'll do all right at Souths.
