This "shovel the ball along behind the player next to you so he has to stop and reach back for it" is the hot new play guys.

edit: I think Morris probably accidentally grounded this.

gently caress off Slater. If you're a ref and a player mouths off at you after you send him to the bin, gather up your balls and turn it into a sendoff ffs.

And now they feel bad for poor little Billy and don't bother calling his blatant knock-on.

edit: The way games involving 'big' clubs are reffed when they play the rest is the worst thing about the NRL.

I would hazard a slightly tipsy suspicion that of this round doesn't have any more blowouts it will be one of the closest first couple of rounds in a while. Every game has been pretty competitive for the most part, and the football has been quite good. Crowds are poo poo, though.

TV has warped the game a lot. The money is good, but has probably damaged crowd numbers medium term. Really need more day time matches so you can get the families along. Also dropping the ticket price to $10 a head, kids free. It kills the atmosphere for the game even though some clubs deserve it. Looking at you Parramatta, panthers, tigers.

It's about finding that next group of core players we can win with in the next 6, 8, 10 years. Let's face it, it's hard for 20-, 21-, 22-year-olds to lead an NHL team. Look at the playoffs.
