          • Not to disparage our fine playing roster, incl last years lineup and the fucking barnacles we still have attached....but do not think for 1 min that we are above this. The risk is NRL wide

          • go back and watch the game

      • Stupid comment

      • 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

      • People laugh , but I think people are just oblivious to how rife it is in the NRL , many players have serious gambling problems and would be easily corrupted.  Some of the plays we see weekly are seriously questionable.  They're out there giggling after having cricket scores put on them and pulling the oppositions dicks , and we are to blindly believe these guys are so passionate they wouldn't consider a lazy 10k to give away a penalty on their own goalines or drop a ball 10m out from it ?

        please ...  

        • Makes a lot of  sense...tbh there's been some moments when completely inept decisions make me start wondering the same. Hope it's not the case but nothing surprises.

        • I'd like to think most players aren't in that boat but there would be a few bad apples for sure. 

        • Foiks don't want to look it straight in the eyes wiz bacause it's ugly as fuck.

          You need to fuck right up to be caught

          • Foran was a prime example. Openly admitted it too, and yet nothing was done as he sat out with mental health issues until it all blew over. 

            And people thanked him on here for his service. He is a grub and his stint at Parramatta was purely to pay off his debts. 

            • Yeah, they cleaned that up for themselves proper style. There is nothing in it for the NRL to dig into these matters, so they play out a pantomime
