    The DJ at the game claims that an official in the production room said "dance monkey dance" when they put up the dance cam of the crowd.

    There were other comments of casual racism in the production room, but it was "dance monkey dance" that set him off.

      I don't understand coaching appointments in the NRL. Is there a union you join that means you are always in line for a job?

      Seibold has had 1 year in charge of the Bunnies, but looks set to sign for Brisbane from 2020. Souths are then going to make a massive mistake and hire Bennett. Word is that swap might even come forward a year.

      This comes a couple of days after Manly went back to their ex in Des Hasler. Best part is, contractually, Manly currently has two head coaches.

        Ivan Cleary is also going back to his ex Phil Gould at Penrith while the Kiwis coach is about to join Wests.

            @mariner4life It appears to be the same in rugby. For some reason as soon as you crack the big time, you now have the resume to say you have the experience.

            The question is how no one interviewing them appears to be able to ask the rhetorical question; so why were you shit in your other jobs?

              So according to the Ferald, the Warriors are in no hurry to sign Johnson after next year ( contract expires 2019)
              Looks they have finally wised up to the fact he’s not worth $1m + per season.

                They'll probably resign him next week tbh. It confirms what we knew through the Isaac Luke and Jazz Tevaga resignings, the Warriors are obviously close to the salary cap limit for the next few seasons so need to sort out their middle of the pack contracts before focusing on someone like Shaun Johnson. It helps them that several key playmakers will be available come Nov 1. If they were to lose Johnson than Te Maire Martin should be their next target.

                    Damn test/NH league is dirty as fuck. There's head highs (mostly from JWH TBF), head locks, lots of swinging arms not connecting.

                    Sam Tompkins has played better in 20 minutes of this match than he did his entire time for the Warriors.

                    Bromwich had another awesome 20 minutes to start the game.

                    6-6 after 20 minutes. Kiwis look good when they go wide and England look good when they kick.

                      i think we will be fine here. England look like they have done just about every other time they played us, ourside of the US test. Devoid of creativity and disorganised.

                                    the ref is actually an idiot. completely the wrong temperament for officiating. would be more at home in a kindy or minding sheep.

                                      DWZ had nothing to do with Johnson stopping that try. Remove DWZ from that play and Johnson still stops it.

                                      They also got away with a blatant knock on in front of the ref and touch judge a few minutes earlier.

                                        @nepia Yeah, has to be one of the worst calls I have seen. He was so desperate to award them the try.

                                          And Halligan confirms that he's a commentator by saying he thought it was a try - not a penalty try, but that England scored it.
