@canefan really sad to hear about his sister. But you are spot on, he seems like top drawer people aye. Could see him becoming a big influence (if he isn't already) at the club. Have we snapped him up on a longer term contract yet?
-
@Paekakboyz No idea. But we should if he keeps this up. He sounds like a high character guy, and a fighter
-
He's keeping Kata out of the side, i already fucking love him
-
Looks like we got a good one
Not to nag but that story was on NRL.com about two-three weeks ago. I think I need to go into that NZ sport journalism is so shite thread.... I may be sometime.
-
@Paekakboyz He's on a cheap two-year deal but Beale and Kata will most likely get released this off-season (if not mid-season) and that means an upgraded contract for Herbert.
-
In other news Dallin Watene-Zelezniak is asking for a release from Penrith. Boy, things are going from bad to worse there although DWZ has been terrible, especially running into his fullback last game against the Warriors. I don't have him in my Kiwis side to face Tonga, other players to pick from.
-
@Sneakdefreak I've seen that replay at least 6 times and every time he looks like he's sees his FB and still goes ahead with it.
-
@raznomore It was so bad that it's probably the best highlight of the season because of how bad it was. Dylan Edwards is not a good player (he was terrible through-out the game) but that was all Watene-Zelezniak's fault.

The 3 part doco celebrating 25years of the Warriors starts tonight. They dug up Ian Robson too.

Fixed.

I thought we were talking about the LA Lakers

So the NRL players poll results have been released and there's some interesting results.
Despite being the current Dally M holder RTS is only the rated second best fullback behind Tedesco.
David Fusitua has dropped from number 2 wing last year to not getting a vote while Ken Mauamalo is a surprise inclusion at 4th.
Shaun Johnson made 4th on the five-eighth list with 3% of the vote. He was on the halfback list last year.
Both the two best props in the game are Kiwis, well the best Taukeiaho has been poached by Tonga and Bromwich is second. Fifita and JWH are next and then the lone 'Aussie' in Klemmer is 5th.
And in evidence that concussion protocols may not be working too well Stephen Kearney is rated the 4th best coach in the NRL.
All very meaningless in the scheme of thinks but interesting to see what the players think.
NRL Players' Poll: Part 1 - Best players, coach, rookie, team and Dally M favourite
The votes are in, the players have spoken. NRL.com polled more than 150 players from all 16 clubs to get their responses about a range of topics from the best players in each position, the leading coach and many of the biggest talking points in the game.

I see Dylan Walker got off. Amazing what happens when the alleged (my lawyers have advised me to say) victim of domestic violence changes their story to "I was clumsy and fell over".

Caught some of the Parramatta game last night. That new stadium they have there looks absolutely superb.

Going on the long weekend to see the Tahs stumble around against the Ponies. It'll be hard to judge a stadium on a crowd of 30% of its capacity, but the viewing looks pretty good.

@antipodean how do you know she is being untruthful now and not when she made the initial allegation?

I don't. I'm just electing to sharpen Occam's razor.

@antipodean it's fits the narrative we are fed on DV for sure.
