@mariner4life absolutely, on the Haas one you are quite right, no one should pay what he is asking for as too much of the cap gets absorbed into a prop alone no matter how good he is. There is an element of does he actually want to play for the broncos? (and to your point all clubs not listed in the big names above), it may not be about the money, he may just want out, but the money will make him stay.
On Nanai week 2 he misses 10 tackles the following week he poaches some of Hiku's tries scores a hat trick and he is the 1.8m kid lol. The extra team doesn't help in the bidding wars especially for lower order clubs
-
I must say anybody else concerned about the 17th team next year? Kinda struggling to get players...
Only have one back so far?...... and not a very good one either
-
They will struggle I think it looks like this currently, but you are right many positions to fill
PLAYER POSITION
Jamayne Isaako Fullback/Wing
Felise Kaufusi Second-row
Jesse Bromwich Prop
Kenny Bromwich Second-row
Ray Stone Lock/Hooker
Mark Nicholls Prop
Isaiya Katoa Halfback
Valynce Te Whare Centre -
Tigers bring more teams to their level in another bludger of a game and find away to lose in the last minute where it should not have been possible
-
@bayimports Ohhhh ya gotta feel for the Tigers haha how did that happen! When it's not going for you, it's not going for you!
A bludger of a game summed up with a bludger of a try to win it. Had Corey Thompson scored early on, I feel the Titans go on to win comfortably, but they never got out of first gear after that.
-
First 20 minutes, we actually look like a decent side….
-
Sheesh, league is confusing these days. Defender tackles player without the ball and the commentators say you need to keep pressure on attackers, then when a defender tackles a player around the legs they make out like it's the worst thing you can on the field.
@ACT-Crusader I was just about to say they're playing uncommonly well and then the Broncos go in.
-
@nepia nah leg tackles are fine, however when someone else is holding them upright and albino fluffy bunnies come in with a hip drop or cannonball they are genuinely dangerous plays
Not perfect and don’t want to curse them but much better this week. SJ talking alot helps giving direction. Pompey much better centre than winger lol. 40 mins done can they do 40 more, recent history says no lol

I understand the reasoning for the rule, it does seem an issue unique to league though, but was commenting on the, um, commentators, um, comments on the two incidents.
-
League players in general are the worst under a high ball
-
Excellent win. Good defensive effort and we actually looked like we knew how to put points on the board. SJ made a big difference in getting our pack going forward. Was pretty good error free (by Warrior standards) footy. Liked our high kick game that chasers went after.
That young Broncos fullback is going to be some player.
-
You won't see many passes better than this.

@stargazer said in Highlanders v Moana Pasifika:
Could have posted this in the NRL thread, too.
It's a pity, but not sure NZR had any choice when rescheduling games, considering this was one of their postponed games (round 5) and their next rescheduled game is on Tuesday.
The NRL does this all the time, unless the match Crus v Canes I'm always going to watch the rugby live and the Warriors on replay.

@stargazer yeah for a converted rugby centre looks good for a league prop, Im still looking for him to use some late footwork on someone, not surprisingly he can pass better than most of his team mates lol, but I think he will go well from what we are seeing so far.
