Cronk was supposed to have a cracked shoulder blade as well as anything else.
He was only there for his play making skills.
I suppose you could say it worked.

After being at the game last week and watching Luke Lewis give his farewell speech after the game to applause and cheering and a standing ovation as he walked off the ground from both sides of supporters, which BTW was introduced by Billy, then to watch that dog act by Roosters supporters while Billy tried to give his farewell speech lastnite just makes me proud to be a Storm supporter. I totally agree with them booing him during the game,  thats just part of it but after the game thats just bullShit, but congrats to  the Roosters team, done their homework and gave us a towelling

Yeah, the booing for him before (when the retiring players were going around) and after the game, I thought was pretty bad, and I'm a Roosters fan.

On a new subject what character do you need to be the Kangaroos captain,
Not one of Greg Inglis smartest move, maybe Boyd Courtner will take over now.

So.. I don't see the point in spend 60 million on a footy ground, when there's 1000's of homeless people..
Then if the NRL moves the grand final around the country (how can NSW prem have any say in it anyway?) - that means AFL in their stupidity will follow suit...

He leans in close to her face and appears to say: "Call me big Papi ... call me Big Papa."

Things really have turned around at the sharks these days.


Oh wait, what's that???
Maybe not.....

The entire Cronulla Sharks squad has been banned from a popular sailing club in the Sutherland Shire as a result of a late-night incident that the police are investigating.

The Sydney Morning Herald reported on late Friday night that the Cronulla Sailing Club took the extraordinary decision to ban the entire squad from its premises after a series of scuffles broke out at the venue on December 21 that involved several lower grade players.

this could get huge!

A third sex tape allegedly involving Bulldogs prop Dylan Napa is being circulated on social media amid claims the lurid videos were part of a private WhatsApp group involving as many as 25 other players.

The latest Napa video came to light as potentially damaging footage of two other star footballers emerged, with Dragons recruit Corey Norman and Wallabies star Kurtley Beale laughing in the presence of a man snorting a line of white powder. It is not clear when it was filmed.

A third sex tape involving Queensland and Bulldogs prop has emerged on social media.

Napa and his manager, Steve Gillis, met with lawyers in the city on Monday in a desperate bid to come up with a strategy to stop the slow leak of explicit videos into the public domain.

In what is looking increasingly like a revenge porn situation, the latest Napa video allegedly shows him engaging in a consensual sex act with a woman while referring to himself as "Big Papi" — the same name he is heard to call himself in the first video.

I also received these videos today.

In relation to Corey Norman one Dragons who I support and wasn't happy with this signing have already released a statement in relation to it.

I looked forward to receiving the next round of videos tomorrow

NRL FFS, you are so far out of touch.
Did you really think that your sponsors were going to pay you for no return?

Hopefully, like with all the outrageous salaries the sports are paying to players and executives alike the aftermath of the virus will see them all forace clubs to have manageable salary caps and executive salaries in line with community expectations.   AFL, NRL, ACB, TENNIS AUS are completely out of touch with salaries/wages.  Millions will be hurt for many years and wont accept the current clubs in the way they are managed..

This country has pretty reasonable wages for sports "stars", not like overseas countries.
In this crisis, sure, they shouldn't be paid, just like other out of work people, but once the dust settles, providing the sponsors come back, ( and TV deals ) , they will be paid the same as now. Elite people have always been paid big money and I can't see it changing in the future !!

athlete salaries (along with CEO salaries and such) are a product of the free market.  restricting people, of any walk of life, the ability to earn as much money as they can legally, is ridiculous IMO, regardless of whether we agree with the numbers or not.

if someone said to one of us, we'll pay you millions (in some cases) to play sport for a living, then who among us will say no? 

not me, that's for sure.

if shareholders (for CEO's) and professional sports leagues can pay their workers, then good luck to them.

a huge number of these high wage earners give millions across the globe every year to thousands of charities, good causes and individuals alike... many stories coming out where sports stars in particular are paying stadium workers out of their own pockets and also providing millions to update medical facilities in their own countries.

this 'alright for some' attitude begs the question?  do you watch these leagues or buy a particular product that has a highly paid CEO?

whether they have millions or not makes no difference to my life whatsoever.  in fact, sometimes it makes it better.

just my opinion... not all will agree, no doubt.  which is cool, we are in a free country...

Careful paceman. Don't let the truth get in the way of a good story / whinge session
