Official Aussie NRL Thread

i'm not convinced by anything the telegraph prints

i doubt Stuart would be giving anything away & i'm guessing its just speculative journalism to fill space & sell papers

but i'm not much of a Hayne fan, i think he's too mentally fragile for origin, Slater will be all over him like a cheap suit, Hayne is however Athletically brilliant but i dont know whether that is enough at rep level

 

Hayne at 5/8 will be deadly.

 

Hayne anywhere in Origin whilst fit is deadly. But I do agree Teke.

 

hes played some of his best football at origin. not only that but hes absolutely killed it in beaten sides.

 

Not to mention some of the best players for NSW have been like that...

Hindmarsh, Bailey, Fitzgibbon, Lewis etc are all workhorses and are exactly the kind of players needed for Origin.

Guess we will see.

On another note, Parramatta are playing extremely well today, even though we lost, I think we have improved considerably. I think Esi Tonga should be ****ed off though that **** is ****ing hopeless. I almost cheered when Sandow was taken off thinking he had been injured for the season.

 

:yep

If the Titans got rid of him and they are the wooden spooners it should have said something.

 

fair dinkum he was a deadset passenger out there. he might be injured but i reckon his stats will show more misses than tackles.
Ive made up my mind the **** is a ****en reserve grader. If he had any morals at all hed hand back that 550k contract and go walkabout

 

LOL at the Panthers

Jesus atsch

 

Sandow was always going to be **** at Parramatta. Terrible team for him to adapt to, and terrible style of attacking football for him.

 

Crowds are up, memberships are up, revenue is up, T.V ratings are up..State of Origin is reaching unprecedented popularity...15 years ago neither the NRL Grand final or State of Origin came with cooee of the AFL Grand final in terms of crowds and tv ratings...now they are at least on par, in a couple of years recently they have outperformed the AFL.

Tell me what you think Gallop is doing so wrong?

Rather then just saying he isn't doing things as right as Demetriou.

The AFL's dominance over League in certain areas was around long before Gallop and will most likely continue to be after he is gone ..at least Gallop has made some ground.

The sport was literally ripped in half 15 years ago..What he has done since that has to be commended...could he have done better? Sure but I think he has done a good job considering..the results speaks for themselves.

 

wheres darkhorse the ****?? it was about this time last year he was telling me what a great buy hed be and that i was crazy for doubting him.
sandow might go down as the worst buy in the history of the nrl.
In fact who holds that mantle now? wesser at souths? he might already be there

 

Wesser wasnt a dud buy because he was well out of his prime when he got to the bunnies. Sandow is in his prime and is going great at the eels :yep

 

Not sure about darkhorse, but I do remember ipswichexpress saying that he'll be a revelation in the blue and gold. :think

 

:deal

 

alot of blow outs this week.
