OFFICIAL – The NRL is taking the unprecedented step of suspending the season due to the global COVID-19 pandemic.
hardly unprecedented when everyone else has already done it!

@taniwharugby I did admire their blind gumption for a while there. They had a crack !😄

You get the impression they really did not want to do it ,
But the pressure coming from outside forced their hand

So while the NRL is frantically trying to come up with a solution and everyone's taken a pay cut of 71%, apparently the FTA broadcaster (Channel 9) thinks the solution isn't worth as much...
The proposal to have a rebooted competition up and running again without crowds in the midst of the coronavirus crisis, however, has not won the support of the game’s long-time free-to-air broadcaster Nine. Nine chief executive Hugh Marks has told the NRL there is less value attached to the game being played behind closed doors and under a different structure and the media company wants to negotiate a new contract with the code. -

Channel 9 basically calling for heads to roll...

@Bones and shit has gone as downhill for Locke as it has for the Warriors since then. He always lacked size (lol if they selected Tomkins to address that) but was electric in 2011. Must have been a real kick in the nuts, although it sounds like he took a while to mature.

We're cleared for take-off
Vodafone Warriors CEO Cameron George has today confirmed the club’s NRL squad and football staff will fly to Australia tomorrow to prepare for the scheduled resumption of the 2020 season on May 28.
Not sure if this is welcome news....

The Australia based NRL fans now kindly vowing to adopt the Warriors as their second favourite team are in for a rude shock.
Suckers for punishment are league fans

Displaying the effects of accumulated head injuries, Souths captain Adam Reynolds compares Latrell Mitchell to Michael Jordan.

I think the generic term is "morans" but I watch the warriors on occasion when I need to feel superior about picking a sports result correctly. So I fit in as both a sucker and moran.

Latrell is copping shit because he's a dumb fluffybunny doing dumb shit at a time when there is nothing else to talk about.

if she was the one that blocked the footy, she wouldn't get the chance to get voted out...

So her protestations about keeping Queenslanders safe is clearly bullshit.
