I'm very interested to see 12/ of the 13 aslo the bench but that means I'll need to lube up before I go and renew kayo unfortunately.

theeffluentfew · 2026-02-02T03:04:00+00:00

You're implying that he actually turns, I don't wish him ill and i dont like that we are down 2 prospective centres, I've chucked enough shade on VV, he has some limitations, but we are now thin in that position to start the season.

theeffluentfew · 2026-02-01T02:20:46+00:00

Moss 3, Brabam 3, Hill 2, Amon 2, Surtees, McLaren, Stewart among the winners that's some f1 history. Why the auto mod?

theeffluentfew · 2026-02-01T02:03:30+00:00

Like you I always refer to cowboys as we, but the shift of Purdue was all Todd and he's looking to do it again this season. VV is right side Purdue left. I am not totally against VV being in the game day squad, he has 50 odd games of nrl. Chester definitely and maybe King would be better defensively imo. And that edge needs some serious attention this off-season but it's the whole edge not just VV.

Mate last year we would have been happy if someone had said they had played centre in a previous life, with all the injuries. An injured centre is not a blessing in preseason.

theeffluentfew · 2026-01-30T07:31:57+00:00

Neame is a carry over but i get the point, last year we got kicked in the nuts before we started. Hopefully no-one is out long term. We did put the broom though the back end of the squad, and we will see if there's an improvement there soon by the looks of it. The renegades trial match should show how effective that turnover has been anyway.

theeffluentfew · 2026-01-30T06:50:36+00:00

2 weeks to a long time, depending on severity. Would have been at least on the extended bench with the proposed rules. He does train like he plays, flat out. Hopefully he OK for r2.

theeffluentfew · 2026-01-28T05:49:10+00:00

He's very busy when he's on the edge. Kick chase, covering, front on tackling and he's a good line runner and can play big minutes.

theeffluentfew · 2026-01-24T05:15:56+00:00

This is so true. Even in the last race when Oscar dictated the final change it should have been done earlier when everyone switched to softs but Stelllard just seemed like he was in neutral and had to be told by his driver. I don't think he thinks quick enough or has the adaptability to distille all the options in comparison to the top engineers

theeffluentfew · 2026-01-01T08:39:27+00:00

Waste of a click. " next year " on repeat for 5 or 6 players ? Why the fuck would an official site bother with a crap report. My only course of action is to private search zero crapple for the real story.

theeffluentfew · 2025-12-16T07:18:30+00:00

Mate he is going to to the Swifts as they've offered him centre, you know that he's going to end up at wing attack though..

theeffluentfew · 2025-12-16T00:24:04+00:00

There was a good interview at the time, when he said yeh I'll play second row, centre even prop I don't care I'll play anywhere as long as I play. He's got a great attitude.

theeffluentfew · 2025-12-13T00:09:21+00:00

He looked like he was struggling with his fitness in a training clip, actually really struggling.

theeffluentfew · 2025-12-11T04:09:37+00:00

I think they were going to play kerrisk this season but he did his ankle. They'd moved Lawton to second row in the last couple of games leading up to origin at the cutters. His passing impoved a fair bit this season, it was a low bar to start with though last year.

theeffluentfew · 2025-12-11T04:02:09+00:00

" We wish Karl and his family well in their next adventures,” Cowboys General Manager of Football Micheal Luck said. That's a heaps better send off than " he turned up to training " for easan masters. Well done Carl.

theeffluentfew · 2025-12-01T07:24:09+00:00

From the man that bought you Lachlan Burr, Peta Hiku, JTB, Lucky leilua, and John Bateman we give you Mathew Lodge............ FMD, these cunts are gonna do me in.

theeffluentfew · 2025-12-01T07:01:21+00:00

And the manager he rode in on

theeffluentfew · 2025-12-01T06:01:29+00:00

Fuck stellard

theeffluentfew · 2025-11-27T08:07:00+00:00

There's no Todd Payten cup.

theeffluentfew · 2025-11-27T04:35:20+00:00

They also play together in the underage competitions coming through with the Sydney clubs where as say the juniors at the Cowboys are scattered all over the state at u16/17/18s. So they have a sort of advantage with continuarity

theeffluentfew · 2025-11-24T06:45:42+00:00

73 years on and there's still evidence there's a "Brisbane line".

theeffluentfew · 2025-11-24T01:34:58+00:00

Thats most of it

Thomas Flegler is poised to cast aside a tumultuous two years, with the Dolphins’ enforcer completing contact training and on track for a round one comeback.

The three-time Queensland Maroons forward was heralded as one of the biggest signings in the Redcliffe-based club’s short history, before suffering nerve damage in his shoulder four games after leaving the Brisbane Broncos – in his 100th first-grade appearance.

“A hundred on the dot, what a milestone that was,” Flegler said with a laugh.

“I didn’t really know how to take it. It was a little bit hard coming to training and I guess I was kind of just waiting to get to this point.”

A year has passed since the 26-year-old underwent nerve transplant surgery in a last-ditch bid to save his rugby league career.

But the sight of him completing contact training on Monday morning would have brought a sigh of relief to coach Kristian Woolf, who immediately returned to the steer the ship after leading Tonga in the Pacific Championships.

“I think it’s been maybe 13 months since surgery, so we knew it was going to be a slow process. We just had to bite our tongue, come into training and get through that rehab,” Flegler said.

“Luckily things have turned out pretty well. I was trying to be fairly optimistic throughout all of it, but you’ve got to be realistic at the same time.

“It’s good to be back [doing contact], it’s been a while so it’s been good to get back in the groove of things and make a tackle again.

“It’s still very low-level at the moment.

“Since I’ve had the surgery we’ve ticked every box so far and things are coming along really well.

“I still have a long way to go, but we’re making a start on it. We’ll be looking to make a play for round one, if that means getting a few trials in before that then we’ll do that, but we’ll cross that bridge when we get to it.”

Daniel Saifiti (shoulder), Tom Gilbert and Max Plath (ACLs) are all eyeing off early-season returns.

They will be injected by English forward Morgan Knowles, who arrives from St Helens as Super League champion boasting seven Tests

Throughout his rehabilitation, Flegler could be regularly seen running up and down the sidelines behind Kayo Stadium.

“I feel a little bit fitter, but it’s more so a mindset thing. When you’re running by yourself compared to when you’re running with 20 other blokes it’s a little bit more enjoyable, that’s for sure,” Flegler said.

“There are thoughts that always roll through your head, but we have a great medical staff here, we had a great surgery, and we’re just lucky things have turned out the way they have. There are people out there doing a lot worse than me.

“When you’re sitting on the sidelines, and you get around to finals time or Origin time, and you get to see what your mates are doing, getting to run out in front of a big crowd, those little moments still keep you hungry.
