"He should get 416 weeks IMO.
Unfortunately JDB would slot back in. I also feel for Samrani. Anyone know how back is his ankle? He was just hitting that purple patch of form too. I guess it looks like Kelly to fill in for Samrani for a few weeks…"

"With the new 6 man bench rule, i don't think there are rules stipulating players cannot back-up from NSW Cup. Which baffles me that the RLPA were ok with that. But ideally, halves and backs are more likely to back-up. Joash at 7 would get through…"

"Some of his passes in the first half took 3-5 business days to get to it's target. When Pezet is most dangerous is ball on the run, taking the line on and short play to Kautoga before contact. That is his strength."
"Though if he provides us a good 20 to start and maybe 10 on the back end that can help. I understand in easing him in though we aren't expecting him to play big minutes either.

"How come papalii can play cup then be on the dg bench, is that some new rule?"
"Yeah you have to admire them. Purely just skill is how they are so good. No ref favouritism or dud calls or easy draws. Just purely too good.
I fear all the other 16 clubs are making the numbers."

How do we shape our forward pack for the rest for 2026
3 games this year have all had one thing in common. Paramatta have started all games horribly as they have been rolled through the middle by the opposition with ease.This has resulted in JDB being dropped. However, JR said JDB still has an important…

Eels V Dragons 3-2-1
What a sea sawing game, with the referee really trying to influence the result. Some desperate digging deep in defence and working under fatigue coupled with some very very bad ball play by the Dragons has let us take the 2 points. So much more…

2 points is 2 points
It wasn't perfect and it sure wasn't pretty but these are the games you have to bank early in the season. There's plenty to work on, but that's a good thing when you aren't playing well and still win. The dragons have been tough to start the…

Cannot see why not, but unfortunately the battling line looks as fragile as poppa's hips!lol it appears it could be a tough summer
Nothing wrong with my hips Mickey. It what hangs off them thats a bit wobbly!
Please no pics pop's!lol Keep it PG.
In the absence of 'experts' in the field I'd think the batsmen at the top of the order need to book a bulk visit to a good shrink. The fog and uncertainty need to expelled so they can play once again assured. Only Travis, Marsh and Carey are currently mentally fit to play a role in the test team. India has a dynamic bowling group, but they're aided large by the meek effort of some of our batters.
Hope you're right Mick, I always look to our cricket team to take my mind away from the o'rf season. If there's no bounce back from them, my only back-up is the Thunder.
Yeah RJ, cricket is a great game takes our minds off footy for while but now its seems NRL is 365 day business - all it takes is a great knock or great partnership and it can turn a series
They need a talk from Steve Waugh. Learn what it takes for the mental disintegration of your opponents. To do that, you have to be completely switched on and focussed yourself.
The lack of red ball cricket has also not helped. Where is the Sheffield Shield? That's supposed to produce Test Cricketers, but all we have seen is T20 and a few one-dayers.
Team overall is getting too old and the current state of Shield cricket is uninspiring.
We are on the decline, unless a few unexpected youngsters jump out of the ground.
The bowlers tend to be pretty good game to game but the batters (ex Head) are basically flat track bullies.
Khawaja (38) should be pensioned off. Labuschagne (30) is hopelessly out of form. Smith (35) seems to be past it. Starc (34) is all over the shop innings to innings. Lyon (37) is not ever going to do a Warne and rip thru a team. Hazlewood (33) is good but he is no McGrath. Cummins (31) is inconsistent but generally good.
We miss Green but also need a genuine bowling all-rounder who can be our Flintoff, Pollock etc. I thought Cummins might turn into that but his batting is getting worse.
My opinion only and I am sure others will have different thoughts.
Have to agree with everything you've said Badger. Depressing but true. Also we can't continually bowl using the seam while the blokes from the Sub-Continent excell in that manner.
