Seriously dude, if you want to do well in fantasy, I would sell that plodder for Haas. Otherwise, just enjoy the ride.

Nothing wrong with the Fanatics' swimmers if all this baby chat is anything to go by

https://www.rabbitohs.com.au/news/-thomas-burgess-to-move-to-super-league-at-the-end-of-season-2024

When I read that news this morning I felt quite emotional and somewhat shattered you guys know how much I love Tom one of my favourites. It is sad but let’s make his last season one to remember!

That last regular season home game against the Roosters will be very emotional Tom last regular season home game I won’t miss it for anything I will be there as he runs on to give him a massive standing ovation!!

So it will be the end of the Burgess era for on field.

I’ll never forget Toms efforts over the last 12 seasons the amount of times he got me out of my seat I’m sure he will again this year too. He will forever be in our folklore for the 2014 premiership too!

I’m sure he will give it everything he has in him as he always does in 2024 before he leaves

Max is famously a high profile happy clapper whose celibate relationship with his 'met at church' betrothed was thoroughly exploited by one of those tax dodge mega churches that seem to spring up west of Marrackville to fleece the lost souls of Sydney's Millennial generation of their hard earned.

There were a bunch of videos where Max explained that keeping it in your pants was a great way to show your love for the Baby Jesus and make a few dollars for the slick fucker with the microphone.

Weird world we live in where everyone is so adamant about political correctness, inclusion and sensitivity, with most things untouchable but some beliefs, races or groups are fair game by the people with the same logic

I’m not personally offended by any means, more of an observation on return to the forum and this is what I read

Yeah probably a bit strong, I thought about adding a disclaimer abd oprobably should have, but for the record

While I am an atheist I have absolutely no issue with organised religion of any denomination, It has helped build the basic tenets which allow society to operate in a meaningful & cooperative way.

My beef is not with Max King or anyone else who has beliefs which help them get through their day to day.

The only thing that makes my piss boil is the quite obvious business models most modern evangelical churches operate under. They are business aimed at building the power and wealth of those at the top yet they fail to pay any tax, exploit the good will & labour of the young people involved and have a disproportionate influence on lawmakers which impact everyone regardless of their belief system.

This isn't a Rabbitohs forum noone cares that a career plodder is leaving the NRL

Don’t think anyone can argue with that. the 1% who are in it for themselves and take advantage are there in every demographic, group or race sadly. Seems pretty naive to think otherwise and probably reinforces my point that certain groups are no nos and others are fair game. And even harsher then to tar everyone with the same brush and then attack the beliefs of the 99% trying to do good, or in most cases just live their lives

Again, not offended. Just find people strange creatures at times. Hope you’re going ok mate

I'm good mate and appreciate the timely reminder to have a think before posting

Apparently Campbell Graham may need sternum surgery and out for half season

Munro Wing, Tass/Milne Centre now?

Welcome back PYTM,
hope your Christmas break was good.
I'm personally looking forward to seeing how far the Knights can go this year.
May see you at one of the home games.

Yeah Tass/Munro I'd say, Tass had the left spot locked down before Wighton came. Assume he moves to the right though with Wighton nabbing the left slot.

Rabbitohs season really on the rocks now.

Host has low ownership

for good reason

guess this means souffs is a bottom 3 side now instead of a bottom 5 side

Campbell graham out until at least r15

edit; see Camo beat me to the punch... sorry!

Munro looks like he has that wing nailed down with that Stretch news with maybe Kenner or Milne holding down a spot until Wighton is availabe.

2 weeks ago NRL physio said he had some procedure normally reserved for senior citizens with osteo. Seemed optimistic that he would bounce back since would've been playing thru massive pain.

So this is either "may" don't a lot of heavy lifting, storm in a teacup
OR
Procedure didnt work and Campbell Grahams chest is F-d

Hope it's the former. Not even going to make a Lomax comparison joke about how strong and robust Zac's chest is.

EDIT: should've read other posts, it's the latter. Sad times for him.

Cheers mate. Don’t know how much I’ll be on here with full time at the clinic, SG ball training and games on top of that, and a second bub on the way but I’ll drop in at times for sure. Get to work with the first grade squad more this year which will be fun

Hope you’re well mate!

All you other degenerates keep up the good work

So All Stars teams have dropped;
Indigenous All Stars

Bailey Biondi-Odo
Bailey Butler
Josh Curran
Adam Elliott
Jordan Grant
J’maine Hopgood
Nicho Hynes
Josh Kerr
Alofiana Khan-Pereira
Latrell Mitchell
Shaquai Mitchell
Kierran Moseley
Hohepa Puru
Kotoni Staggs
Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow

Hypothetically, given there was a suggested intention to name Seb Kris earlier, could he have been named to play given that the NRL has said to the Raiders that the All Stars game wouldn't count against his suspension? (thereby making it a game that he can play?)
