Un-nerving coincidence.

Two weeks ago -
A Melbourne team short of Rep players & with growing injuries lost to a team a few spots below them on the ladder
A Wigan team short of Rep players & with growing injuries lost to a team a few spots below them on the ladder

This week -
A Melbourne team with an even bigger list of injuries lost to a team at the bottom end of the ladder
A Wigan team with an even bigger list of injuries lost to a team at the bottom end of the ladder

Time for the blood loss to end and take back BOTH my home turfs :evil:

So, you're saying it's the Pie-eater's fault Ratty?

Na - Just struck me as a horribly unlucky coincidence.

The Sunday Telegraph can reveal the NRL will now consider introducing marquee player signings, outside of the salary cap
Wonder if this little salary cap cheating,(legal ?) effort will be re-jigged to just apply to NSW clubs ::)

The new marquee player signings is the idea of Todd Greenberg who starts his "new" job at the NRL next month. He would like it to become an option for clubs and there cap in 2014. Funny how the Bulldogs (where he now works) want Folau in 2014 (a done deal in you believe everything you read). Even funnier seeing Greenberg had Folau has his guest in a VIP Bulldogs box on Wednesday night at Origin.

No conflict of interest here and no other club has ever cheated the salary cap.

I wonder if Greenberg will also see to it that Luke Patton is video ref at all of the Bulldogs games and the GF?
