Best decision for him, he's been pretty poor for a few years now. Good on him for not doing like so many other 'past it' Aussies and come to SL to top up his pension.

Graham Posted January 3 Author Share Posted January 3 How widespread is cocaine use in the NRL? I ask after a previous white powder incident and now reports that Blake Ferguson has been sacked by his Japanese rugby club before he’s even played a game for them. This follows his arrest (30th December) in Tokyo for and alleged assault on someone. When searched it is alleged that some cocaine was found on him.

Graham Posted January 17 Author Share Posted January 17 The Broncos’ fight to keep gun centre Herbie Farnworth is set to get harder with reports an unexpected suitor has entered the race. The 22-year-old comes off contract in November and is on the radar of the Dolphins for their inaugural season in 2023. Now, English rugby union scouts have got their eye on the England-born and raised outside back, according to Wide World of Sports. It’s understood the Broncos want to retain Farnworth but may not have the cash to match the hefty $500,000 salary the Dolphins are reportedly prepared to offer.

And meanwhile The Storm plan for the future: NRL news 2022: Transfer news; Dolphins close in on Melbourne Storm star Kenny Bromwich; Wayne Bennett; Craig Bellamy lands schoolboys star Jack Howarth (foxsports.com.au) The Melbourne Storm have also recently landed the signature of one of the best rookie forwards in the game on a five-year deal worth $2.5 million. Jack Howarth, 19, can play in the centres or backrow and was part of the 2019 Australian Schoolboys team which featured fellow young guns Sam Walker and Reece Walsh. A product of Brisbane Boys College, Howarth stands 193cms and 105kg but endured a frustrating season last year with injury. Hasn`t played a game of first grade and they sign him for five years. Incredible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
