Shaun Johnson should front an integrity hearing. But the NRL would have to learn what that meant and establish one first.

soooo, did he bite him or not? Because if he bit him, then 5 down to 4 is a ludicrously lenient sentence given what we have seen in the past.
And if he didn't, 4 weeks is a fucking long time.
Imagine if this turns out to be true and Siebold is the victim of a smear campaign that implicates the NRL itself. He will be loaded - for life.
Can we please get the same cybercriminal experts to check through the refs emails and see if there's anything about them conspiring to screw over the warriors on a weekly basis.

The NRL and Telstra have come to their senses and U-turned on what would have been yet another major fluffybunny move against the Warriors. I wonder if Phil Gould had anything to do with this? If he did then he is worth every cent of what they are paying him

@Donsteppa yous got what yous wanted

Johnson is a precious idiot. We all had our suspicions and now he's confirmed it. This is not to be confused with a grub. He isn't malicious. He's just a bit of a princess.
But that said the NRL judiciary is so overdone. It should be a lawyer-less affair with bugger-all to it. The NRL love this shit, all the drama, and media coverage.

@mariner4life I will feel good about the Warriors chances next year only if word comes out that the players are fitter than they have ever been.

And a new coach always fills me with great confidence

@ACT-Crusader the last time I followed any afl. Brisbane Were the premiers

I’ve seen some dumb league in my time, but that first half from the Warriors was right up there. Started from the first set too where we give up awesome field position for a nothing turnover.
Second half we have looked a different side no jinx here

Just saw that Blake Green did his ACL today.
It seemed innocuous in real time and then on the replay you could see the knee buckle.
Hard too see him coming back from that given age and type of injury.
Yeah, you'd think thats him out to pasture, at least in the NRL. A Super League team may well get a bargain contract from him, i guess

Despite the dumb first half, that was one of the more pleasing wins for the season for me. I thought at 10 nil down, short-handed that we were done for and it would end up a blowout. Pleasantly surprised with the grit they showed to run over the top of them. Granted the dogs are wooden spoon contenders, but it so easily could have ended up differently.

Several positive notes for me. I have not seen the Warriors 10, who is a meast, and Turner the reserve fullback that played standoff looks a real player. A foundation to build on

Good win by the Warriors. Looked like a pretty average game off footy, as you would expect given the teams on show. They have shown themselves to be pretty bloody resilient this year.
Broncos saga on going. Story at the moment is Seibold is being offered $1M to walk away now. That's not a bad deal...
This week's story is crusher tackles. Mid-season changes don't always work. NRL decide they need stamping out, so instantly make the sanctions higher. Lo and behold, there are suddenly heaps of them in a weekend, and players are staying down to get penalties.
Pressure on the neck is inevitable when "post contact metres" are suddenly massively important, and players are backing in to tackles and continuing to drive forward. A couple of tackles penalised on the weekend were nothing, but because of the mechanics involved, contact to the neck area is inevitable. And attacking players fucking know it. Refs need to know the difference between a player falling the wrong way, and a Russell Packer power bomb.
