And we become like the EPL. It's obvious that the rich clubs like Broncos and Storm would always be at the top. The rest of the teams will make the numbers and focus more on rivalries than winning competitions. And maybe bring back the mid week cup w
Can we afford a Change of Chairman/Coach? We finished near the bottom of the table for the past few years and somehow we were over the salary cap! Some are arguing we should lose points in 2016 for sins of the past notwithstanding we have paid ($465
Tele crap reporting fui fui in hospital and nearly died from the flu. I haven't read the full story yet but it's in the Tele so I presume it will say the illness is a breach of the salary cap and we will lose 4 points because of it. Good news is fui
Very big and gutsy effort by the team tonight, as the title says, it was a much needed win as our next 5 games are going to be a big test of our character. Before the game tonight i had a look at our upcoming games prior to Origin 1 and was q
