I'm in Australia and could find the 'actual' story.
I'm not sure about Queensland though, wouldn't put it past those northern bogans.

@Gunner he actually held people against there will for a short period of time and threated to kill them.
As part of a violent home invasion. He avoided gaol by agreeing to compensate the victims - something he hasn't done.
For all Greenberg's handwringing, Lodge should never have been offered another contract.

Another thing that you see live but not so much on TV, the blimming ‘water boys’ are right behind the play for the whole set, barking orders and calling plays. It’s like having an extra man on attack. Why is this allowed? It’s fucking rediculous.
Agree - they do well not to show this on the TV coverage but when you watch a game live its a big WTF are these guys up to. Right involved eh!
-
Brisbane have the same problem they did last year, a change of coach isn't going to help that. They have a non-entity at hooker, and 2 off-the-cuff running halves with substandard kicking games. Also their fullback is reliable, but old, immobile, and an uninterested tackler (see his "miss" on Bromwich last night).
Melbourne owned the game, but they left too many points out there and it could have cost them against a better side. They will still make it to at least the 2nd last week of the season. Regular as fucking clockwork.

Top 25 Warriors. Saw Sam Rapira at #25 and thought either this is a bad list or the Warriors haven't had that many good players.
-
Rapira was better than Betham.
A mix of solid work horses and try scoring outsides. Lacking in halves and hookers. Says it all really.
I would have had a certain North Queensland aboriginal fullback who went on to play for NZ over Cleary as well
And Steve Price should be way higher.
-
And Lance Hohaia at 7? Holy shit

Cleary kicked goals, but Wade McKinnon and Brent Webb were far more dangerous. I'm smelling a TSF top 25 Warriors list!!

Should be in the top 3 for sure (sentimental pick but he was a loyal soldier)

loyal soldier being enough to make you top 3 sums up our franchise.

357 points in 185 games with the club. Started at hooker, standoff and fullback. Two grandfinals. If you're going for top 25 club players he's in the mix (top 25 players of all time than James Maloney might be number one)

On a tough day like today it's nice to see Shaun Johnson & the Sharks lose to the Knights 12-8. That's my happy medicine for today. Plus this gif of Shaq.

Ah balls, I forgot Johnson was with the Sharks, I would have watched that rather than the first half of Tards v Bumboys. I dislike Newcastle too, but it would have been good to see Johnson and Ponga play.
-
I thought the Canes v Chiefs was dire at times. This game was 2 all for ages, or at least it felt like ages. Not a particularly great game by SJ.
-
Great to see the roosters and the sharks lose on the same night
-
Good to see some things never change. Kata fucks up his first touch and the Warriors so far not getting the rub of the green from the refs.
