The NRL is Going Global, Rugby is Rooted, and the Victorians Clutch For the Old School Tie to Take on PVL – It’s the Definition of Madness
Well our predictions were spot on weren’t they? PVL is taking the NRL to the world, and bringing it home in player stock too. Rugby Union is rooted, and the Tongan Thor who plays for the Wallabies will soon be moving the second row of an NRL team, probably the Tigers or the PNG expansion […]
“What became obviously clear during Covid was that we were on the cliff’s edge because we had no assets,” said ARLC chairman Peter V’landys. “If ever there is another crisis like Covid, we need to be better prepared. Having an asset base is crucial. It’s not a nice-to-have, it’s a must-have.” – PVL, speaking after […]
It’s a Small World – One in Which You Should Avoid Walking Around Wearing Red Hats, Carrying Gucci Bags and Making Threats Against People You Don’t Know
See the bloke circled in red? Shane Wirth. He was a local lad who played for Norths with my mate’s brother. Later on he went to Banyo and Sandgate High Schools, probably getting expelled from one to end up at the other, as kids from our side of town used to do back then. It […]
The Warriors are Gone – The Broncos Have Only Just Begun
When it became obvious that Jerome Luai was out, possibly for the season, the Warriors all of a sudden became a huge chance of beating the Panthers and going straight into the preliminary finals. Shaun Johnson’s calf injury has cruelled that. Now the Warriors will be lucky to make it past week 2, and I […]
Stats, History and the Broncos Rap

There is Only One Game That Matters This Weekend – And it Matters a Lot
The top 6 in the NRL are already through to the finals. Brisbane, Penrith, New Zealand Warriors, Melbourne, Newcastle and Cronulla spots are booked. Who would have predicted that at the start of the season? That leaves two finals spots to play for among 4 teams. Roosters, Raiders, South Sydney and the Cowboys. Canberra currently […]
A Hook Job
Anthony ‘Hook’ Griffin was a very ordinary 1st grade coach, and he is an even worse footy caller. God only knows why Foxsports put him on. Chief caller Andrew Voss isn’t that much better. Not just because he’s a wanker for having said that we shouldn’t have had a public holiday if the Matildas won […]
