Over the weekend, Mark Pigram left me a voicemail message regarding various complaints he was going to make about this site, and then he called back to let me know that a raft of former board members "who all have one thing in common, they hate your

It continues to astound me how how under-rated attacking hookers are in Rugby League. Year

And that's Cameron Smith.
Again, NSW forwards are copping it, but Peats bog-st

The site is going to serve two purposes.
First and foremost, it's an opportunity for me to test out the latest version of the platform that 1Eyed runs on. As

I know there are a few other blogs floating around on this topic, but I've not had a chance to write a blog for a very long time, so I'm going to start my own. Sorry!
