"Let's imagine that the Roosters are faced with a scenario: we allow Joey Manu to go to French rugby or we let him go have a stint at Castleford," Johns explained. "It's an opportunity for players to really optimise their income while they're in the game. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol...

Interesting that he mentions church, like he's on the straight and narrow path again. Good for him. It makes me think of the many Christian players we've had, such as Inga, Billy Whizz, Bill Ashurst, Shaun Edwards. I'm sure that the direction from their faith helped some, at least, to be better play...

I'll be at my 5th WCC with my son who was 10 when we beat Manly, his wife from Perthshire, and my granddaughter Sophie who is 10 now. This will be her first WCC and only her 5th live game. She'll be devastated if we lose - here's hoping she comes home happy!

Very fitting and a great touch by the club once again. I wish King Bill was lining up in the Cherry and white. I agree, Chariots, but "King Bill" could surely only apply to one player? Bill Ashurst was "Sash" iirc. Btw, I went to school with Jim Brennan, a blond-haired lad from ...

I never realized how many people deeply care about being able to see high tackles and retaining the exact punishment for them that we had last year. Things you learn. Glad Harry didn't get a ban. I didn't think he deserves on when Hooley clearly dives at the ground. What was Ellis supposed the be u...

Great news that smith is available . Dangerous precedent though that any player up for dump tackle throughout the season will just point to this and argue for the same - I.e just a fine. Depends on the mitigation though... Ref on the field made it quite clear he disagreed with a red as Hooley made ...

As a 16 year old, I bought my first motor bike. I rode everywhere pretty much as fast as I could go. I had little sense of danger. When the compulsory crash helmet law came in, I was dead against it. I'm now 72 and still have a bike and ride regularly. I won't set off without helmet, gloves, armoure...
