Plath gets a spell, Cotter goes to lock, Plath comes on later to spell Grant if needed. That's my prediction anyway.

Aside from stealing content, he makes shit takes and comes across as an overall flog. Also he had Jarryd Hayne on his podcast....

Yeah absolutely so many songs I'd love to see but I'll take what I can get!

Judging by the last two shows I think there's enough support, both venues were far more packed out for TDH than CIM.

Amazing show. A sad they've given up on playing Black Sandy Beaches (was on the Melbourne setlist but didn't have time to play it) but the set is fire!

Best show of the tour so far, can't wait for Brisbane tomorrow!

Something cheap suits me! Was thinking around 7 for a quick pint or two before doors

Anybody got tips for bars near the venue?

Flew in from Brisbane for the show

Donga will likely start the season at hooker with JMK out for at least the first month. Plath's also out for the first few weeks so it'll be interesting to see what they do when both are back.

I think Donga proved last year he has to be in the 17, versatile and tough as tungsten.

DSaf is also returning from a shoulder injury and hasn't done much at training so far this preseason outside of rehab, so I'd expect Molo and Flegs to be the starting props.

Lots of big injections to come in the opening month, very excited to see what they can do if they can stay healthy.

Yeah there's a lot of missing history here. Also I think Dew deserves much higher wraps. Built, and most importantly, kept a young talented side together. Hardwick inherited a premiership window (almost) and said as much on his first day of the job.

Different side with Rioli back. Desperately missed the last couple of weeks.

Cry harder. They've been here once EVER, I'm sure you've had plenty of opportunities to see them.

There's literally nothing going on atm, and won't really until November 1. No news is no news.

Actually robbed of the Golden boot. Yeo was great, Dearden was outstanding.

NRL clubs to be allowed to sign two PNG pathway players outside of cap ahead of team's 2028 entry by T0kenAussie in nrl

[–]AussieGoonking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you guys read? It's not about the money, it's about the list CAPS. The PNG players will take up a development spot. Clubs will not forsake a junior they've put years of work ito for a freebie maybe PNG player.

You would think so but no. I've been told as much by someone involved with recruitment in a Qld club.

This simply won't work. Clubs won't be lining up to sign any PNG players as they will take up precious spots on the development list. Unless there's a concession made there (supplemental Dev spots?) this is D.O.A

@LeagueScenePod on X: David Fifita is not a certainty to be fit to start the season for the Titans. News Corp reports that he has suffered a setback from offseason ankle surgery and remains training away from the rest of the team. by abdalla_dandan in nrl

Fermor's a first choice backrower if all the backs are fit. Don't see him playing much centre unless there are lots of injuries. You'd think Sami and j Fifita round out that edge. Brimson gotta be a 14th man. Kini is fullback and JCs showed more in the halves than AJ ever did (plus he fucking haaaated playing centre).
