Where's Hurrell?<br>
Just tuned in late, is he playing for the tits or have they realised already that he's shit?</p></blockquote>
<br>
Wasn't allowed to play. Part of the transfer agreement. -

Shit that's right, would have added a bit of spice to the game<br><br>
Something to look forward to next season, depending on which club he's at of course.. -
<p>I think Konnie is injured right now anyway, his fitness levels weren't that great when he arrived. Tbh I think Gold Coast will move him on if he doesn't impress on & off the field this year....their coach is a hard taskmaster.</p>
-
<p>Watched the replay on Maori TV tonight. Really slow out of the gates (the first try by Hoffman was lazy defending from Thompson and Johnson) but put on the after-burners in the second half.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Some thoughts:</p>
<p> </p>
<p>- Bye bye Manu. Warriors are better with Lolohea, Fusitua and Maumalo as their back three. All three can cover fullback, they rotated the position in this game, and can make massive gains down the field.</p>
<p>- Roger Tuivasa-Sheck's return in 2017 will make things tricky but I guess Lolohea will move to stand-off.</p>
<p>- Bodene Thompson was the best player for the Warriors despite his defensive lapse to start the game.</p>
<p>- Blake Ayshford pounced on a great intercept try and is my best come-back player in 2016.</p>
<p>- The Titans play some fun footy, very similar to the Warriors in that regard.</p>
<p>- That Gold Coast rookie who broke his ankle though, yuk. But he has a smoking hot girlfriend so he'll be fine.</p>
<p>- Congrats to Simon Mannering for his 250th game and Mt Smart for its 250th game. All good.</p> -
<p>Rabbitohs shut out 0-20 by the Cowboys, look out of the play-off picture already along with Manly, Sydney City and Newcastle. Warriors now in 7th with Eels set to join the bottom four.</p>

<p>You haven't seen the Knights play.</p> -
<p>one of those two teams turned up and had a dig yesterday</p>

<p>teams being announced for dead rubber Origin 3</p>
<p> </p>
<p>NSW have blamed the series on Matt Moylan, who gets dumped. Okay, that's not fair, non-entities in Bird and Walker are also gone. Gallen moves to prop, Graham gets another crack at it. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Winners of the team are Farah, Jennings, Gallen, Tamou, and Ferguson, who have contributed fuck all, but get to play again. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>In comes the flying James Tedesco, and tattooed uber-bogan Josh Dugan. </p> -
<p>Think Daley will be given the chop after this game. Not willing to challenge the selectors on players who have failed time and time again (Farah, Jennings etc). Expect Geoff Toovey to be head coach in 2017.</p>

<p>Investigations all round!</p>

<p>Foran has "walked out" on Parramatta. Strange enough that Hayne is in talks with one NRL club. Parramatta has to be the dodgiest club going round.</p>

Will he be at the Dogs next year? Or will he take more time off -
<p>Maaaattteee, Australia's greatest great is gonna offically recognise his dream of playing in the <strike>NRL</strike>, <strike>NFL</strike>, <strike>Olympics</strike>, NRL again.</p>

<p>And despite all the shit that the Eels have done this year (and if the rumours of paper bags in teh carpark are true, it's worse than reported), it looks like the NRL might actually let them sign Hayne to play, THIS YEAR. What a fucking joke. </p>

<p>These guys are to the NRL what the Brumbies are to the modern maul: a way of demonstrating how completely stuffed the system is.</p> -
