Mate, I'd be betting that a man with the looks and the paypacket of Steve Southern wouldn't be pulling in the hotties.

Australia up nine places to 33rd in the world. Top 20 are as follows .. first set of numbers is their total points, second set is how much they moved by. 1 Brazil ---------- 1630 --------- +0 2 Italy ---------- 1550 ---------- +11 3 Argentina ---------- 1472 ---------- +6 4 France...

No love for you. And yeah, I thought I wrote on here about six weeks ago that the Cowboys were rocked by internal problems, and they proceeded to lose six matches in a row. Perhaps I didn't write it here. But yes .. the pre-eminent rumour is that Thurston slept with Southern's wife ...

To explain them, I'll give you two examples. The second is probably more obvious than the first, but at least the first example is football. In the A-League last season, Adelaide United were definitely the best team. I'm a big Sydney FC fan, but I will freely admit that over the course of the...

Thanks, mate :)

Ja, I know. He did it in the trial match against Dragons at Wollongong, actually. But he'll be back for 2007, which is what I was referring to.

I think it's just a huge shame that the World Cup has just finished, but all anyone will talk about for the next year is not that Italy won or that Brazil were disappointing or that Australia surprised everyone with their tenacity .. but rather five seconds of madness from one player. Imagine...

Finch is definitely gone. Wing isn't a certainty, but I heard that he wants out. If Roosters don't grab a major signing or two, I would be very surprised. They just have too much left over money by the looks of it. That's definitely a top four side there. With the exception of Anasta, who...

Ohhh man, this is awesome! Finally some proper rugby league talk, I'm so happy!! Melbourne will obviously fancy their chances during the Finals .. they've had a lot of practice now. I'm not saying they will fail .. just saying that quite a few people expect that's what will happen. How long...

Re: The Official A-League Thread. Well Neill and Cahill want to invest pretty heavily in the A-League. That should be even better news for the game :) Can't believe the season is starting so soon again! Can't wait .. hopefully by South Africa 2010, Sydney FC will have five...

Don't think anybody is expecting that. Melbourne should stroll through to win the Minor Premiership. What people are expecting is that Melbourne will crumble in the Finals, because many think it will be too hard for the Storm to win two huge matches against strong opposition in Sydney...

So then why does beating them without Marshall count, if they beat them all the time anyway? I guess most supporters reckon their team can still make the Finals or win the Premiership. And there isn't anything wrong with that. But you guys are gone without Benji. Feel free to quote me if...

Schweinsteiger NAILED it. What a second half performance by a man who, apart from that, has pretty much flattered to deceive this tournament. He's been solid without being spectacular, but he changed all that in twenty-two minutes of madness. Portugal's goal was all class, Figo delivered a...

Unbelievably, you guys still have a shot at the eight. 1 Storm 30 2 Broncos 24 3 Dragons 24 4 Bulldogs 22 5 Sharks 22 6 Sea Eagles 20 7 Knights 20 8 Cowboys 18 9 Panthers 18 10 Raiders 18 11 Tigers 16 12 Eels 16 13 Warriors 14 14 Roosters 14 15 Rabbitohs 4 Panthers, Raiders, Eels, Warriors...

Did anyone listen to Fatty's garbage about Lockyer's game on The Footy Show tonight? "It was his best ever game for Queensland, reminded me of Wally Lewis." What a load of shit. Thurston was the man who changed the game, and all the credit goes to one of the NRL's favourite sons...

Figo has been a joke all tournament. He has played poorly the whole way through. Which is a shame, because he used to be a brilliant player.

The potential? His career is almost finished already. And his performance in Game 2 was better than last night. Thurston was the man who stood up for Queensland with 20 minutes to go, and the rest of the team picked up following on from his efforts .. I think he made two line-breaks in about...

Won't say that Queensland didn't deserve to win. They tried their guts out. The only decision that REALLY went in NSW's favour was the Carroll disallowed try. Because that was the weakest strip in the history of rugby league. NSW's try just after half-time was awarded because the ball did NOT...

They've both played very well. O'Meley has been very strong off the bench, and Mason has looked good offensively. Bailey hasn't done too much in attack, but looks pretty much solid as a rock in defence. At least our forward pack aren't getting smashed tonight like SOOII.

Yeah, been very interesting so far. Half-time and 4-4 .. Queensland looked dead in the ten minutes to halftime, but they held on. They'll be refreshed for the second half, you'd think. Heart says NSW, head doesn't really have a definitive choice. I guess if it were a normal regular NRL...
