Most effective kick he’s ever made

I don't have aircon in my room at home- my kids don't have aircon in their classrooms at school, I don't get three fucking free meals a day. I don't have access to a gym for free. I don't get to go on picnics with my partner for the day , because I have to fucking work!! I don't get free access to a computer or study- I , the one doing the fucking the right thing have to pay for all of this. So do you really think it is rubbish?

I've heard the wives of each detest one other. Maybe thats affected the boys friendship too.

Nup. Smith and Cronk really do dislike one another quite a bit it seems. And it's been good watching Cronk get the better of Smith in their last two games, including the GF. Smith would be absolutely filthy about that. It was a good game last night. Brilliant field goal from Mitchell, and great set up by making it seem Cronk was going to get the ball. That's the advantage of having more than one player who can kick a field goal in your team. Watching the Roosters set up fort hat goal made the players in the Tigers/Broncos game last week look even more ridiculously stupid after they tried and failed several times to even set up for the FG properly despite getting good chances to.

Half these stadiums will be wiped out by rising sea levels anyway. Put some money into RL heartlands like Tamworth, Dubbo in NSW and central Queensland.

Jacko's NRL debut was when he was at the Chooks against Souths. That game GI made a line break deep in Souths own half and he was away to score for all money..... until Mitchell Pearce chased him down and caught him. That was the moment I knew GI's best was behind him.

Mostly they don’t make movies with good character development these days. Most movies I watch, I couldn’t give a fuck about the main characters and can’t relate to what makes them tick, because there isn nothing there to work on.

From what I have seen the refs have decided to let the games flow, with teams allowed to get away with some pretty grubby stuff. Plenty of offsides not being called, slow play-the-balls due to wrestling. This seems to be what people want though because the refs have been praised with the uptempo nature of quite a few of these games. The Eels have been in some of these fast games, and I have enjoyed them. If they keep this up I will be fine with it. The refs shouldn't get too comfortable though. There are still some pretty poor decisions being made out there, in particular forward passes being called/not being called, and some weird penalty try and sin bin calls as well.

Hasn't Roberts been injured? I'd be more worried about his off-field antics rather than how he's been going on the field. Getting so pissed that you need to be carried out of a pub isn't a great look, but when you are doing it whilst recovering from an injury is a sackable offence you would think.

That is a very good question. Folau is an idiot, as are most Christians who interpret every word of the bible literally. I know some people who believe humanity is really only 5000 years old because of the story of Noah. They believe dinosaur bones are a hoax because god created the animal world, not evolution. Funny how Folau has tattoos though, when the bible has a passage against it - just the same as gay sex, where there is one passage supposedly against it. But Sydgeoff, you are on the money again. If it was a muslim player saying it, those feeling outraged would probably be getting accused of being culturally insensitive and persecuting them for their religious beliefs.

Would there be the same outrage if a Muslim player ...eg Hazem El Masri. ..expressed his thoughts?

I also thought he may be first coach sacked, but apparently Dragons have signed him up to an extended coaching deal. I'd be waiting until about August 31st to make a decision, as that is usually when the Dragon's show their true form and begin their slide out.

Souths can have both of them...both of them have been shithouse this year.

That old mole that says that is the same old mole that sings "we're not gonna sit in silence" all alone after all the others suddenly stopped singing in that Hahn Superdry add.

Caught up on my replays from the weekend. Roosters skill level was phenomenal. Best Centre pairing in a long while - Mitchell and Manu.
