  • Don't mind the speed bump playing 

  • How do you get an exemption from a mandatory rule ? This competition is so fucking contradictory.  They stand Brown down after letting Burgess play , and then let Weed play after he is subject to a mandatory rule .  

    How can you not be of the belief that the NRL have favourite clubs and club bosses .  If SuoerLeague was an option tomorrow I'm not too sure I'd be as supportive of the ARL / NRL this time around . 

    • Yep was thinking the exactly same thing. MANDATORY 11 days....Gotta love the NRL, just change the rules whenever it suit them 

       

      • It's a bit of a joke .  Is it not enough we have to put up with their officials being able to influence the games on the paddock with their inconsistent rulings , now they're even stepping into changing mandatory rules as they please .  It kinda makes you feel like they take the punters for absolute dummies who they can purposely be as corrupt as they like right in front of our noses just to show us we can't do a fucking thing about it , and nobody with a voice in the media will call them out on it . 

      • Mandatory is only catagory 1

        Catageory 2  the club can ask for an exemption from a neurologist - which Cantebury did - all aboveboard

    • Clubs have always been able to get a exemption , the just need to get a independent specialist to look at the report of why the player failed his HIA ,  a players past history of concussions and then they do a examination. 

      Is it a dodgy process ? Yes 

      Is a player going to be truthful at the examination about any symptoms they may be suffering from ? Of course not .

      But when a player gets an exemption he needs to sign a document which protects the NRL .

       

  • Reg can use him as a bumper bar like last time

I don't think we should be worried, Ryles clearly has a plan for these two in tandem & it's exciting to know we are moving further & further from the style of player & footy from previous seasons.…"

"Yep. Smith fatigues himself because of how much defence he does. Sometimes by the 60th minute he has already made 40-50 tackles so needs a break."

"Yeah, if I did not misread the DT article, I think that's what Richardson (Tigers HOF) mentioned that he currently contracted at the Tigers. So we might hvae just matched it?"

"Pops, agree on the defence 100%, well said.
Saturday was a good indication of how much work Ryley does himself & for those around him. 
I have no doubt Ryley is well in the plans. Perhaps he's thinking, as EA mentioned, a Brandon Smith style hooker…"
