Hundreds of players in the NRL. Young, high spirited, aggressive, peer-oriented, all chockas full of testosterone. The only surprise is there aren't more incidents.

The club's been dicey mentally for years now. Even during the Ninth-Every-Year period, whenever there was a crunch game that could help them qualify for the semis, they would be not just beaten, but smashed. I think they need to focus on enjoying their footy, remembering the passion for the...

Critter and Best as centres?

Titans are now improving after a poor start, and they are only one win behind us. Dogs have improved heaps. St George are improving. Souths had a nightmare draw, and it will be a lot easier from here on. Dolphins are in the 8. I was optimistic until the Dragons game. Benji and the boys have a...

Seems to be the smaller players getting pinged for these tackles. The only big forward I remember doing it is Payne Haas and it was a desperation tackle to stop a try. The trouble is that players are now so huge, and there's a ton of pressure to not miss tackles. Sometimes it seems that small...

Why did Milne, a serial offender, get two weeks for directly attacking the legs of a player and Sezer gets fourr weeks for getting a tackle wrong. That' dodgy. The NRL must explain the difference.

Yes, WT tried to be a solid defensive outfit under Madge and that was never going to work. This was always a club of razzle dazzle, as capable of smashing teams as being smashed. It was fun and it was frustrating. I liked that commitment to attack - they put on good games to watch, no matter who...

Rough around the edges but I like the potential of this team - Bula, Galvin, Pole, Fainu, And Utoi.

And another dud call Tiges had to challenge

Finally a decent call. Oh well. This was always going to be a tough game

Abysmal refereeing. She has made so many bad decisions, usually against the Tigers.

Two challenges. Badger is terrible

All the calls are going the Dogs' way

I remember that every year there would be a late season crunch game. This would be it. Win and you're in. WT often started these games as favourites but would always lose, usually badly. There has long been a problem with the team dealing with favouritism.

That's a more serious one because he had a life-altering seizure and had allegedly been denied water.

Maybe I am being too harsh haha, but Wayne's victims list now stands at five as far as I know: Ivan Henjak (Broncos) Steve Price (Dragons) Rick Stone (Knights) Anthony Seibold (Broncos) Demetriou (Rabbitohs)

Then that is for the best. I wonder how long Bromich and co will last?

The Bennett curse strikes again! Bennett focuses on current results and does the bare minimum to build a club up for the future. So, when he leaves, the club always falls into decline due to the lack internal development at the club, kind of like a Ponzi scheme. IMO Souths would be...

The result of these lawsuits is that clubs conduct detailed psychological testing before hiring. Logically, if a player is suing a club, then they know they are not mentally tough enough to play NRL. So they hope to leave the game with a juicy payout and do something that suits them better...

The Dragons loss was a bad one but WT just played the two best teams, so that doesn't help their early season ladder spot. The Dogs will give fans a clearer idea of where he team is at, with Galvin at 5/8. We already know what they are like without Galvin haha
