    Impressive chase by that Cowboys forward, but impressive try by Walsh to not get flung into touch.

      Somebody make sure we don't resign tevaga.

      Totally lost the game for us.

        The way he landed on his back on top of the knee of the Cowboys player would’ve hurt too.

          Origin sides are out, and thanks to injuries and suspensions, on paper these teams are actually very very close.

          Game 1 was supposed to in Melbourne, but obviously that's fucked. So the call is it will move to Townsville. Predictably the Sydney media are blowing up deluxe about unfair that is, to have two games in Qld. So they have offered the alternative of, checks notes, Western Sydney...

          hahaha fuck off cretins.

            @mariner4life c’mon mate, for those living in the leafy streets of the Eastern suburbs or beachside areas of Manly and North shore, β€œWestern Sydney” may as well be an entirely different state.

              @mariner4life how the fuck does Sims continue to make the team lol. I understand picking "origin" players based on past exploits but fuck he must suck a mean dick. Good for QLD though as I feel this is a piss poor pack. AND I haven't even seen the QLD team yet lol.

              But that back division for NSW is lethal.

                @mariner4life origin sides are out, but why haven’t you posted them in here? How inconsiderate, now I have to go search for them myself πŸ˜‰
                Not that I know who half the players are these days anyway.

                  Former champion Canterbury halfback and NSW Origin captain Steve Mortimer, 64, has opened up about his secret battle with dementia in the hope his condition will give today's playing group a reality check.

                  In recent days, leading players have reportedly spoken of ousting V'landys in the wake of record charges filed against players for making contact with the head.

                  Mortimer said his condition is "absolutely" linked to head knocks suffered during his career and that he got in touch with V'landys after reading reports about the players' stance.

                  "I said, 'you have just got to forget all these people who are against you'," Mortimer told News Corp of his conversation with V'landys on Monday.

                  "And these blokes who want to stick it up Peter V'landys or whatever have got no bloody idea.

                    @donsteppa it's very sad. Mortimer played in a time where raising the elbow, getting dumped on your head, wearing a clothes line and fisty cuffs were just part of the game. I'm surprised more player from his time haven't opened up about the effects of CTE. The game is now safer because of the rules around head contact but the pure size of the players involved heightens the risks in a another way. Greater force = more damage.

                          Just catching up on some of this since I went on a bender on the weekend πŸ™‚

                          So Nicho a shark, still clearly about the money as the main three players were not glamour clubs (well Brisbane a former glamour).
                          Broncs offered 1m, Warriors 1.5m and Sharkies 1.8m. He was offered the 6 position at the warriors too.

                          Ponga out of origin although Grant cleared to play. Well done NRL for giving the other hosting position to Townsville, I really think they got that right since Melbourne has gone..

                          Addin Fonua Blake supposedly back next week too

                                  Broncos season just gets better and better. Destroyed by a shit team like the Dragons

                                  How is it possible in a league packed to the rafters with dogshit contracts matt Dufty doesn't have a contract for next year? He's a gun, and if we didn't have the kid i would happily pick him up for the Warriors

                                    Just on contracts

                                    Cronulla are clearing out. Big contract duds in Woods, Dugan and SJ are off

                                    SJ definitely seems to overvalue what he is actually worth to a club.

                                      3 in a row and quoting myself...

                                      So far this season, in the 13th round, the Broncos have played on Thursday or Friday night FTA primetime games 10 times

                                      They have 1 win
                                      They have 3 losses
                                      They have 6 absolute beltings

                                      It defies belief that year after year this club gets kissed on the dick by the fixture list despite a decade of being absolutely nothing.

                                        Why the hell did the Warriors give Tevaga a new 2-year contract? A waste of space and a penalty magnet.
