    Video ref was having an absolute laugh with that Roby try earlier. Did his best to rule it out but just couldn’t, after watching Grace’s feet from about 10 angles for 5 actual minutes.

    Lions tours are ace, and going to South Africa just off them winning the World Cup would normally be the best thing the sport can produce. Unfortunately, everything about this one is toilet.

    If the Doggies can get Steve Hansen to sign on full-time I reckon they'll join the Storm and Panthers as another powerhouse.

    It won't happen now. It's the clubs driving it, which also sinks the island teams and leaves a farcical non-competition.

    People are getting a bit carried away with it. Having it in 2022 isn't the end of the world, so why risk having a shit one like the 2000 tournament that almost killed it off for good?

    The NRL will have to change the season structure next season to allow for a World Cup. I reckon it would have to be a team made up of single blokes anyway as the family men wont want the go.

    Looks like there is gonna be blow back as the players weren't consultated again.

    Wayne Bennett has come out swinging against the NRL wanting to prevent players from representing PNG, Somoa, Tonga and Fiji. The players Union is angry with the lack of consultation. I reckon the World Cup could still be a goer.

    Lions got away with some ropey defending thanks to TMO pulling tries back but that second half was way better.

    And I still hate Faf de Klerk's smug little face.

    I liked the idea of the Indigenous and Maori sides coming over instead, not least because we could beat both of them.

    Just looking at the Rugby League World Cup fixtures. I find it odd they're dragging it all around the country like that. Just the three matches in Newcastle and one inexplicably in Middlesbrough. Still might fancy tickets for one of them, mind.

    I think Whitehaven got a match the last time around. I'd sooner they got the nod over Middlesbrough.

    Good idea but ARL/NRL would block that team.

    Stacked Island teams is what I'm chasing.

    A bunch of unofficial 'invitational' teams turning up whilst Peter V'landys and Phil Gould sit at home seething would be a lol result at this point. The Kangaroo XIII could play in West Hull kits.

    I watched half of the video last night. It really reminded me of the type of rant a crazy person goes on to prove they're not crazy.

    It's hard to say really. In the short-term there needs to be some sort of financial consolidation, but in the long-term a ten team division would be the most boring shit imaginable (it's already boring with loop fixtures making the numbers up), so they're probably fucked either way unless some money magically appears out of nowhere to support a long-term plan.

    In ten games this season he has fifteen tries, sixteen try assists, and is averaging 219 metres per game. He also won the Wally Lewis Medal, and could well win the Dally M in fifteen games. Best hot streak since Jarryd Hayne RAPED the competition in 2009.
