What happens now? Players want their new pay deal ratified or will not turn up to training on Monday which will hold up the competition return. The tail is wagging the dog.

"He should never have been selected in the first place. It's clearly obvious he's been carrying an injury all season. Heard on NRL 360 he will miss up to 3 weeks and Ethan Strange will take his place and Burton on the bench. This will show how great…"
"Throw in fui and yes we could."
"Doubt it."
"Doubt it would be Fox. I think Hopgood and Williams are on the leadership team with Paulo and Moses."
"Surely would be him or Fox "
"How much did pezet sign for LB ?"
"Because they want qld to win."
"When did he do that? It will be in the scan. Decision made from there. "
"He didn't seem worried where last time he nearly cried when Moses got injured "
"One question nobody has asked yet, Paulo is out Saturday and even if he plays Origin I don't see Moses backing up, who is our captain? Jack Williams?"
"He said scan in the morning, then if good do captain's run. I doubt if it's a strain he does captain's run."
"I just saw it from how in that first trial, though knocked out straight away, Ryda was one of the first on in the rotation. Seems Ryles really likes him. Could get a debut and play here and there in NRL in 27' then 28 is his push."
"We need so many outside backs. Idm Richie if he could stay injury free which seems impossible.
Yea Alamadine hasnt developed the past 2 years. No pace. Poor defender. Not atheltic enough. Roksuka, Bloomfield and Sorovi need to be the focus on…"

"Talagi may be another year away from NRL. Will see how he goes in NSW cup for the rest of the year."
"Edwards might be the problem for Pryke. Edwards being able to fill in at Hooker and having 57 games of NRL makes Pryke odd man out. Tries hard but as you say EA he is low upside overall.

V'landyball: The Momentum Wars
Gus Gould is right when he says defence starts with your attack. In V’landyball, that’s truer than ever. Average margins are over 20 points and average scoreline is over 50 points in total. The highest in history. The old saying is defence…

I'm in the players corner here. They agreed to a 75% pay cut until the game could restart, and I agree it was necessary, but if they are going to start playing again, and presumably getting broadcast income flowing again, then the players want to know what their pay arrangements are going to be, and fair enough.
The 75% cut was for the duration of when the game wasn't operating, once it starts operating and the game gets some cash flow the players deserve to be paid accordingly. The NRL has thus far not addressed this concern, however I'm sure they will. The players desperatley want to start playing again, but they don't want to be taken for granted, and fair enough.
The other issue is around the Warriors. They have to be in quarantine for 14 days after they arrive before they can start training. The Warriors players are understandably concerned that this hasn't been nailed down yet, and they aren't prepared to commit to traveling across the ditch and then being in quarantine without a deal in place. Again, fair enough I say.
There is an agreement already in place if the competion resumes,the players get 29.5 pc of any revenue from then on, it is not yet known how much that will be. The players and that wanna be Newton continue to throw up road blocks , cance the comp for gods sake and let these self entilted shits cry about that, I had hopes the comp wopuld resume on rhe 28th, not any more.
Thats fine if they dont - no-one wins. Seriously both fox and ch 9 could be stubborn too in light of the players behaviours this week. No-one wins. AFL will be back soon as will some o/seas soccer....there will be sport to watch somewhere. The marbles has even taken off.....
Well the Belorussian Premier League has been playing this whole time. It's the only professional sport that has continued operating uninterrupted.
Yes Brett and its good stuff. I congratule those Belorussians, a tough race.
i agee with the playes but the reality is that they will play. They are fully paid up untilk the end of May whic means they are obligated to turn up and train, after that they wont get paid a cent. All of the players i have spoken to are so worried abou their next paycheck, despite some of these players being marquee players that they would do anything to get back and play.
All of the club officials i have spoken to are also confident of the game restarting. Storm in a teacup
As long as our guys want to turn up and train i dont give a crap what the others do
