Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
You’re about to see something special tonight. Reece Walsh is coming off the bench, but he’s coming, don’t you worry about that. And he is going to rip Origin 2 apart. Walsh did it in the Broncos run home and in the Grand Final. Tonight he is going to do it again. In a few […]
I rate Ashley Klein as the best referee in the NRL, and have never had any cause to question the calls he make during games at either club or representative level. But this week’s revelation that he has had a major issue with gambling addiction, one so serious that it has seen him lose half […]
I am fucked if I know who this so-called rock star Robbie Mortimer is, but I do know one thing for absolute sure and certain. He should never be allowed to sing the Australian national anthem ever again, and the person responsible for selecting him to slaughter our country’s song last night should be sacked. […]
Peter Fitzsimons is one Australia’s master sports writers. In fact Fitz in one of our all time great writers full stop. It doesn’t mean that he’s flawless though. Fitz wakes lyrical in his post-match Origin report about Robert Toia “the debutant Blues centre arriving exactly where history says its heroes must arrive – first”. There […]
What was Kalyn Ponga thinking? No arms. Full contact. High impact crash. That was a send off every day of the week. Just ask Joey Manu. There was no reason for it either. Billy should have picked Reece Walsh. Not doing so has cost QLD game one, and maybe the series. What a great game. […]
How do you spell go and f**k yourself? First look at the scoreboard, and then look in the mirror. Cleary and Tedesco. There is your answer. Ho ho ho! Kiss my arse. PS – Anyone seen where Maggie went with the dough? Last spotted heading for the airport.
It’s hard saying this a dyed in the wool Queenslander, but I don’t think the Maroons can win the opener in the State of Origin tonight. Poor selections, the Blue dominant record at Accor Stadium, and the form of some of our leading players are the big problem. Leaving Reece Walsh out is madness. Reece […]
Racing NSW CEO Peter V’Landys has announced that he will take 4 months long service leave from the role to allow him to concentrate all of his efforts on running the NRL after the departure of footy CEO Anthony Abdo. V’Landys deputy Graeme Hinton will act in the CEO role during his absence. PVL is […]
The Brisbane Broncos are injury ravaged and in worlds of pain. They have lost star prop Payne Haas, the best front row forward in the game until at least round 14, by which time it might be too late. Halfback and playmaker Adam Reynolds is out indefinitely after copping a bad head knock, and handily […]
Certain readers of ours have been shouting from the rooftops that this was the Year of the Dogs. The Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs. They are kidding themselves. It is the Year of the Cowboys. We smashed them tonight. Canterbury are bums. Goodnight Doggies. Your season is over. Go back to school. Oh, you’re already there. We took […]
