8 weeks for what Junior Paulo did seems excessive.

Zero weeks on the sideline for Moses if he takes the plea, one if he fights it and loses. I'm pretty sure they'll take it, there's no way I can see him getting off it considering how bad it was. Lol about the NRL being tough on dangerous tackles..

Whats the use of the On Report system? Why can't every incident be looked at, then maybe the refs would show a card for poo poo like that?

On report don't benefit the other team one bit, and put's the whole team at a disadvantage if they get suspended it's a lovely system

Thing is I don't even see an upside, what is the official reason for it? Are the match reviewers so busy they can't look at all the incidents?

It is so the refs can be seen to be taking action without actually having to do anything/make a proper decision. It is literally just a cop out there is nothing else to it. edit: The way they're praising Nabuli is kind of awkward....He's an "authentic" Fijian apparently.

Melbourne applying the Roosters philosophy of being offside every play knowing the refs don't have the guts to ping them every play so are forced into ignoring it completely since they're gutless.

I feel like I sucessfully tip Dragons results about 10% of the time, they can go gently caress themselves too.

Wow, what a fun weekend for Rugby League! I baked and then ate my first meat pie, it was very tasty. Almost choked on it when the ref put that clothesline tackle in the Tigers/Titans game on report instead of using the bin. JFC what do you have to do to get 10 minutes out in this sport? Also, stckyfngrdboy, what do you think McDermott said to the Rhinos at halftime?

I mean our defence was ok first half, despite conceding two and being lucky to not concede more, but I'm not sure we finished a set in the first forty. Shocking attacking play from us. BM also, wisely, saved all his interchanges for the second half, knowing how ravaged FC were with injuries. What a second half performance though, one of the best I've ever seen from Leeds. News from the inside says Lee Radford (hull FC head coach) is a bully and is likely to be sacked shortly.

Ha, yeah, that sounds about right. Honestly it looked like two completely different teams that just happened to be wearing the same strip. The second half performance was fast, precise, and above all supremely confident; in other words, they played like Leeds. Also Rob Burrow is my hero, I hope he has a good season this year. EDIT also the Roosters owned bones, Michael Jennings is basically a laser in human form. Apollodorus fucked around with this message at 17:25 on Mar 9, 2015 |

Sometimes he is, sometimes he's an idiot who makes stupid decisions on the field as well as off. I don't think Mitchell Pearce would have won Origin last year, but maybe this year? Apollodorus fucked around with this message at 04:18 on Mar 10, 2015 |

I think Reynolds/Hodkinson have more of the "oval office factor" that's required to win those sorts of big games. Pearce has a habit of just disappearing sometimes.

Josh Dugan out for a while too so that somewhat opens up the NSW fullback spot. A fit Tedesco (lol) or Moylan to take it now?

Turd Ferguson is 3rd in line if he keeps his form up and is allowed back in Joey Leilua if he loses some weight as 4rd in line Wighton isn't a centre anymore but he'd be 5th Dugan is injured but could easily be a Centre Josh and Brett Morris too bowmore fucked around with this message at 04:04 on Mar 10, 2015 |

Morrises have one side of the field sewn up, so it's just a fight for the other one and the fullback spot. Tedesco is probably a year away at the moment...

Wighton has played four games at fullback. He's not getting picked there for the Blues.
