July 13, 200719 yr *sigh* panthers are having more troubles yet again we are most likely going to get thrashed by the bulldogs our players can't seem to focus :| That's why I didn't back them :P . Looking forward to Cowboys v Broncos tonight. I would be going but I have a 21st to go to. Will be a huge crowd at Dairy Farmers. ^Sir Jem 05-The Bunny Drinking Blog?^ Click it!
July 13, 200719 yr [hide]DAMN YOU EUROPE!!!!! seriously they can't leave us alone...... :x I believe though that players going over to England and France is a good thing. It only strengthens the English Super League causing their home grown players to play better (which naturally happens with a stronger competition) which inevitably strengthen international Rugby League which we definitely need in a time where there is a growing enthusiasm for Rugby League around the globe. Good luck to Matt King while over there. Oh and we shall not speak of the Eels loss on Monday. :P I was at the game and it was not pretty. Though there was a drunk eels supporter yelling to the Newcastle supporters near us when we were losing and it was nearly over "You lost Andrew Johns, you lost the Pasha Bulka and your on the way to loosing another spot in the top 8 this year! Enjoy the win while it lasts!" :lol: :lol: You could have a point about raising quality of the international competition but I'm more concerned with the NRL. I think we need to raise the cap or elite players need to be content with 300 grand a year like anyone else would. I don't see why individual players can't get sponsorship deals that don't add into thier cap either. Why are you more concerned about the NRL, than a stronger international competition? We could have individual players have sponsorship deals but raising the cap is a bad idea (which we've seen to be in the past). Too many clubs would go broke if they raised the cap and for a so called "National competition" we can't afford (in my view) to be loosing clubs, we need to be building with more clubs in a more vast area of the country. :wink: People like Phil Gould (who is a major supporter of raising the salary cap) is only wanting that to happen so his beloved Roosters (who have one of the worst juniors structure in the NRL) can be come better again by buying their players off other clubs who have raised them up through the junior ranks. Its the reality even though he wouldn't admit it. Fair argument. I'll put my point this way: would you be happy if blokes like Hayne, Hindmarsh or Burt shafted off overseas because they wanted the cash? I know there are problems with tinkering with the money situation but purely from a fans perspective, I'd be a bit gutted if it got to a stage where whenever it looks like we've got a prospective Lockeyer or Johns coming though, they just shift off overseas. This position purely from a club fans perspective.[/hide] Yeah true I wouldn't like that from a spectators perspective but having those Upmost quality players (of course being Parra players :P) leaving would free up our salary cap for other rising talent to come through the ranks, or enable us to buy other quality players from other teams. And also I wouldn't be too devastated from that occuring...it's not like I haven't had to get used to stupid people in charge letting an abundance of good players being let go from the club over the last 10 years of when Brian Smith was in charge! :lol:
July 13, 200719 yr So finally Chris Anderson has resigned as Roosters Coach. He was hopeless, glad he went. Hope Fitler goes well for the rest of the season. ^Sir Jem 05-The Bunny Drinking Blog?^ Click it!

Looking forward to Cowboys v Broncos tonight. I would be going but I have a 21st to go to. Will be a huge crowd at Dairy Farmers. It's my mob vs. your mob. :P Hey, is Thurston playing? I hope so for a tough contest. It would be another great test for the Broncos at this stage of the season.

I hope so for a tough contest. It would be another great test for the Broncos at this stage of the season. Na, as of last night Thurston was out. That's why I went for the Broncos, although I wouldn't count out the Cowboys with a home crowd advantage. Buts its going to be an uphill battle with their play maker out.
July 14, 200719 yr Yeh even with Thurston the cowboys lost. We were pretty bad in the first half but we came back but couldn't win. Lockyer doen something to his knee and is having tests today. And Manly flogged the Tigers.. ^Sir Jem 05-The Bunny Drinking Blog?^ Click it!

And Manly flogged the Tigers.. It was your stereotypical 'game of two halves.' In the first, the Broncos owned yet in the second, the Cowboys picked up 5 gears. Incredible try from Matty Bowen in the second. He constantly makes me rethink of what it means to be a damaging player. I was thinking at times that you guys would come back and win yet lucky for us we held on. I do hope Lockeyer is ok as well. :pray:

It was a great game to watch anyway. :)
July 14, 200719 yr Yes Matty Bowen is brilliant. Every run he seems to break at least one tackle...that's class. ^Sir Jem 05-The Bunny Drinking Blog?^ Click it!
July 14, 200719 yr Lockyer is out for the season! :cry: Dang it, we'll have to restructure. We need Mick Ennis at 7 to pick up a few gears and possibly put Hunt or Berrigan to 6. :wall: :wall: :wall:

No doubt it'll be an uphill battle though. Oh and go the RABBITOHS this arvo. :P
July 15, 200719 yr Nah just dont think Broncos can win now. They need experience in the halves and without Lockyer they don't have that. ^Sir Jem 05-The Bunny Drinking Blog?^ Click it!

July 15, 200719 yr Great win by the eels today. Great game to watch, and now they are 3rd up on the leader board. They have a good chance to take the premiership :) |Myssy <3 | Retired | 19/9/07"My legs say no, but my body says f... you"I laughed so hard I pooped my thong. :lol:
July 22, 200718 yr Author dangit lost again, but we had to verse Gaz on return so i sorta expected that ah well. any way, what are everyones thoughts on the NRL's actions to stop player burnout. enough, not enough, too much? in my opinion it might help but we will just have to see i'm not too sure on how much rest they need. we will see how next year goes
