Looked a right dork.  As usual.

Yes. The best ones I’ve seen have been Johnny as PM on his morning run…walk?

Cloaked by a security detail (fair enough) and wearing a Wallaby’s tracksuit.

Too funny back then.

Has anybody seen Albo exercising? He may have the Shorten shuffle for all I know. Imagine Gough at a gallop.

Why should he?

He seems fit enough (a loss of a few kgs wouldn’t hurt) but he’s doing OK.

Look....a little bit of TBV decorum please.

Rule number one....when the Panthers are on the prowl.....can we please restrict discussion on this thread to NRL related matters.

Thanks

Have you ever seen a more lopsided referring than was on display in the first half of that Tigers game yesterday. I gave up counting the number of set restarts & penalties to the Tigers

Appalling

The Tigers do have a lot of strike power....however i'm still seeing a very loose defensive structure that the better teams will tear to shreds.

Anyhow at least they seem to have stepped up a level from recent years.

Think i've said this before....not sure.

The awarding of offside & forward pass rulings can totally dictate the outcome of any game. I'd suggest the vast majority of points are awarded after referring intervention shortly beforehand

Now i would be willing to wager that if you had continuous drone footage of a game you would find infringements like being inside the 10m, not standing square, forward passes, knock-ons, knock backs in every single play........then you would see at LEAST one infringement from EVERY single play.

Now the technology is available....could easily be monitored from the bunker....& maybe it is....however you will see it for a full game....because it will show up how much the referees dictate the match outcomes.

Will make a real mess of your statistics Afros LOL

The “set restart” is the worst NRL rules’ decision in 50 years.

It’s either a penalty or it’s not 😡😡

I don't mind the concept....but once a team is back peddling its impossible not to have a player off-side.....so ref can just keep giving them....like was the case yesterday. 4 or 5 in a row & the players are absolutely cooked !

Former NRL and Queensland State of Origin player Chris Walker has been arrested on the Gold Coast in relation to alleged domestic violence offences, Queensland Police have confirmed.

The 46-year-old was taken into custody on Saturday night after police were tipped off that a man wanted for alleged domestic violence offences was "hiding in a backyard" in Currumbin Waters.

Police attended an address shortly after receiving the information and located him there.

Maybe they need to refine the rule? Offside = penalty, ruck infringements designed to slow the play the ball down, 6 again.

I can take a 33% profit now or take the chance they can win a few hard games without Ponga or Brown.

Ponga gets paid about $500,000 a game. He's up there with Messi.

He is about to be paid a lot to sit out 6-8 weeks for a muscle tear and 4 weeks for Brown.

Reece Robson to make his delayed debut for the Chooks on Friday.

Will be interesting to see how Robbo manages his interchanges with an 80 minute 50 tackle hooker in the side.

Yes....was a good win Marble....i'd given up on them at halftime

My Panthers are going well.....they remind of a pack of frenzied ants....all playing their role to get the job done

Must admit though i'm not totally convinced in their offence...still seems a bit clunky. They will need to work on it before they meet some of the better teams in in the comp.

I think the least said about the Rorters the better
