"I think you will see alot more short 10 kickoffs"
"The way you handle the 19th man issue, where players are not playing Cup as they might be needed for NRL and other players miss out preparing for NRL, is just a extending to 2 players that could be used in case of HIA etc. So instead of saying Joash…"
"I think the 6 player bench will only further the devide of the haves and have nots of the competition. The likes of the Roosters, Broncos, Dogs ect will continue to attaract the major talent and give them a big leg up when in years to come."
"That's an issue I didn't think about. Yeah what if a team is coming back with limited minutes and the opposition want the ball back just takes away the great finish."
"See if they just changed it too scoring team kicks it's a change but at least consistent. This one or the other is redundant when 9/10 times I reckon the opposition want the ball."
"1) don't hate or love it. As long as there's no delay waiting for coaches orders for kick or receive I'm not overly against it.
2) not the biggest fan. It'll see players play 18-19th man over several weeks and get no game time for nrl or cup. …"

"If we kick deep and they get to the 40, that would be on us. They shouldn't be getting near half way"

"So what if parra are down 16-12 with 3 to go we score covert but opposition wants ball back. They kick a 2pt field goal to goal into golden point. Fucking stupid rule. Watch the blowups in the pressers....horse man needs to fuck off he will ruin the…"
"Ffs leave it as it is. Fuck of the six agains. Ffs we have dopes running the game. Afl must be laughing"
"It definitely opens the doors for more counter attack for teams who have that attacking prowess. It'll be interesting to see who uses it to their advantage, I could see the Broncos or the Dolphins using this well.

"The NRL are fast becoming the ALP of sport.
Introducing laws (rule changes) for the sake of it. The reason they change so often is because the stuffed it up in the first instance. Fuck.....leave the game as it was please, it's not broken."

"Captain this is an interesting one. Will teams forced to kick off after scoring start to kick short more often? From memory the short drop outs are close to 50/50 now."
"Also, not a big issue just awkward if you name a debutant on the bench but there is a chance they might not get on the field if there is an injury in a spot like backline.
Like imagine that hahah, here you go mate you might debut off the bench."

ANY MORE SIGNINGS???
I've been frustrated recently about the work we have been doing in the open market. Jonah's alright for a year and JDB is solid but he's getting old. I feel we need more in the forwards and some a replacement outside back. All I have seen is links…

Let's Ask !!
I find myself sitting around watching the cricket after the Christmas Festivities, and I'm stewing on the perception that we are missing out on real talent that our coach wants, and missing out with way too much regularity and consistency. 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.
