What happens if Mark suffers the infamous Second Year syndrome and Josh Flook continues his excellent form and surpasses Mark in the standings?

Biggest downside to losing Mark right now is, in the span of 12 months we'd lose both him and Marika. In Marks case, he's given us some great assurances to the high ball that the others don't. It'd be interesting to see how long it takes Mark to adjust to defending in league as it took him a...

My dude, it is end of season for the pacific teams. We've had the annual Rugby Cricket cross over which symbolises it is now summer and no longer rugby season.

Ive always found the 6:30pm Friday kick off's better than 7:30pm. Gives you an hour or so to get from Work to the game.

Putting the whole should have gotten it in writing, it is a bit of a dick act by the French and only hinders allies in our game.

We had two inbound tests this year......

Let's not forget the EPL clubs can afford to pay those players at least 3 x the wage they'd get in Italy, Spain or Germany. That'd the biggest driver on why the best players flock to the EPL.

You're gravely mistaken if you think Queenslanders won't go and support any Queensland team in a GF against a southerner. Maybe all those piccolo and macchiatios have gone to your head.

It has to either be all or none of the SS/QPR clubs. As a West's fan, why would I go and watch or support any 3rd tier game that would invovle any of the other QPR teams. Hell, you could easily have Brothers, UQ, Easts and Souths as those four teams and I think I'd rather head to a Broncos game...

Hopefully when he throws that hat, a gust of wind picks it up and stops it landing in the ring. 5-6 years ago he was appointed as the national coach development and lead some panel for coaching advisory. Has that been a success story as we certainly here bugger all about it.

Is making the Kangaroos really that much of an achievement? I still can see the gaps Timana Tahu left in his Wallabies debut against the Springboks.

Coming from a bank, I thought Waugh would be accustomed and happy to spend someone else's money? I thought this entire transfer doesn't hit RA's bottom line?

Outside of Quade (Len doesn't count as he had someone flop on his shohlder), but what back had a catastrophic injury in the last 12-24 months? All the major injuries were to the forwards from memory. Or you know, the guys who do a toe punt at goal while waiting for the backs to get out of the...

Is this really acceptable? Australia has never placed much emphasis on kicking from the tee and we reap what we sow. Similar to what Eddie Jones did to our scrum in 03, it took over a decade for Australia to fix the lack of emphasis. Not every back will be someone who can kick 90%+ and we saw...

Didn't you lot take a CEO to court to stop him blabbing about all the self interest decisions Fagan made though?

If my salary had a component of match and win fees I would be doing what I could to ensure I was a better selection candidate. If I was a good kicker I would also tie my kick percentage to be part of my KPI component.

It didn't seem to be a problem for Burke, Roff or Jordie Barrett. Outside backs are the perfect candidates to be kickers as generally speaking they're not replaced unless injured. Compare to that to a forward, the front 3 all go off and the back 5 have 30-50% chance to be the one that's off...

It's interesting to note that some of the biggest omissions in this years RWC (Cooper and Hooper) early on in their careers were on the dickhead spectrum. Cooper came to the Reds with a stench of being a laptop thief and there was the infamous 'Stradbroke Island pub' incident where he was a bit...

2028? Christ I guarantee people with forget about it.

He retired in July this year.
