Re: End of year celebrations - to be investigated

Disappointed in Brandon and Lewi.

Munster has priors, and I would happily drive him to his next club.

Re: Some perspective

Can't help but feel two years of mostly being away from Melbourne/Victoria took a toll in the end. Huge effort to win a premiership and get to another prelim. in those circumstances. (Not that that will be acknowledged by the drongos in the Sydney media, but whatevs.) However I also can't help but f...

Re: The Annual "Wrestling" Media Attack on the Storm

Have to confess, given rugba league’s propensity to shoot itself in both feet (which is a worldwide phenomenon), if it weren’t for Storm, the game would be all but dead to me.

Essendon should be kicked out of the AFL too for good measure.

Re: RD 25 vs Cronulla

Spitballing that the two QFs will likely be played at Suncorp (especially as they're "marquee" matchups - Panthers v Rabbitohs, Storm v Sea Eagles) , and the two EFs at Cbus (even if Titans sneak into 8th by winning by >= 12 points tomorrow).

Re: RD 24 Storm vs Parramatta

Here's a fun but odd factoid (which means absolutely nothing). What do all of the four premiership-winning seasons have in common? In all of them, the Storm failed to beat the Eels during the regular season. Could be an omen? Same thing happened in one of the years that doesn't count toward our &qu...

Re: Other Rugby League Internationals

Paps was half-jokingly pushing for the Netherlands to replace one of AU or NZ at the World Cup, but with the tournament now being postponed till next year, that's no longer even a .0000001% possibility.

Re: RLWC 2021

Let's call it like it is. Australia and NZ have withdrawn from the WC not just because of COVID fears over on "Plague Island", but because they fear it will impact the off-season (leading into next N(SW)RL season) too much if they have to quarantine for fourteen days upon return. To all th...
