Adam is a wonderful example of how a player should go about his business in the NRL

Thanks for reminding me that there are commentary options which aren't Fox's brain dead morons.

Typically they're not advertising other programs the whole time and there are no ads and it's in HD so idk on the balance I think it's a fuckload better

The kiwi commentators are hilarious since they're completely one eyed and you get to hear them go from optimistic to depressed most games

Iajwife has her mum over and we're all on the couch with the footy on and they're nattering about birth plans and everything pregnancy related and raging against the world being unfair to new mums and I'm like "FOCUS ON THE FOOTBALL DID BOYD JUST GET HURT WHAT IS GOING ON"

On one hand, he doesn't deserve to play, but on the other hand I can't see him paying that $1mil or whatever he owes to that family he traumatised without playing.

Assuming he does the right thing and forwards the proceeds to them he won't.

Great win by the knights but wow, hopefully both sides are just rusty because some of that attack and defence was just :psyduck:

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.

So glad the Broncos paid Thaiday 450k for his swan song and turned down Ese ese's request of 300k a year to stay with the club.

I've got serious concerns about the Broncos this year. They looked a little directionless against St George. They've had 4 months to get this poo poo right. Cowboys look almost like they're at mid season form combination wise, I want to see melbourne play first, but Cowboys look a lot like the team to beat.

Yeah probably. Manly just seems to be a rotating door of journeymen + DCE nowadays so it's hard to really care anymore . I miss the old guard of Lyon, Matai, Watbro, Stewart bros etc. :sigh:

Roosters were hilariously atrocious, Ferguson the only one who even looked up for a game.

Can't loving believe it.

Defence was excellent in smothering the ball. Attack was non existent but that's not surprising with Reynolds being rubbed out a day before the match.

I was going to be happy with the effort whatever the result, but seeing them dig in, especially considering the sinbin, was very heartening. Just need to get the fitness up.
