You lost me .......... The bloke in the ad ?

What's the Sharks injury situation looking like this week? M(c)Innes for 80 mins again?

Bulldogs forward Samuel Hughes has pleaded not guilty to a Dangerous Throw charge on Roosters centre Joseph-Aukuso Suaalii and will front the judiciary on Tuesday night.

Believe it’s a fine either way and he’s challenging his pocket allowance

Jye Gray running from a kick at McInnes is going to be like that guy in the country footy ad who smiles and half his teeth are missing

I hate that ad so much! The promotion of cheating with playing unregistered players is a disgrace! It would have been so much easier to just go pick up the stranded team in the first place!

Yeah this, we all have this idealised view of sport but at a professional level it is a job. And one where employers are ruthless. No probs with players maximising coin. Don’t really think Mitchell isn’t putting in either, just needs someone to rein his white line fever in a lot

Latrell hasn’t taken a kick return since 2020, what makes you think he’s putting in? If he’s in the nrl next year I’d be astonished

The problem is what you’ve seen is NRL vs NSW Cup comparison. You can’t say Gray is a much better player, it’s comparing apples to oranges. Kini is a very good player in reserve grade too. It’s a massive step up and only one has tried it.

Some people know a footballer when they see one, regardless of grade.

Others don't.

The Levi’s tries aren’t drying up anytime soon

Anyone suggests Chester for King or McLean and they're getting a ban

Nice. Nominated.

Ah yep think you're right, $1,500 if he fails to succeed instead of the $1,000 early plea.

I didn't get Ur photo comparison so I was reaching and further extending the bad joke vibes re kick-offs are too tough and need to be removed

One was a bloke who was part time played with a broken jaw, the other bloke was a professional trying to milk a penalty
Forgot about that kick off gem. Makes sense

So the NZ selectors who took Kini in the squad last year with expectations he is on a trajectory to push for the NZ 1 jersey at some point don't know a footballer when they see one?

That's a lovely sentiment you've shared about young Rabbits21, I'll never doubt his player assessments again

TUESDAY TRIVIA
In 2021, which player led NSW Cup in post-contact metres, tackle breaks, runs and run metres before scoring a try in his NRL debut?

I looked up the gradings a couple days ago when I saw this and pretty sure it's still just a (bigger) fine if he fails the challenge for a grade 1 dangerous throw with no priors.

Edit BCT already commented this

The guy in the ad is a replacement who couldn't make the first team, looks 55/60 and probably lost his teeth sucking on choo choo bars. The professional should be laughing,not scared. Pass him a walking stick.

More annoying are the Red Rooster ads, where the female turns into a male. One in the park walking dogs,and the newer one in a library. Can someone tell me what on earth is happening in these ads.

I'm getting a ban with these deviations.

Sivo did appear to be walking tather than running. I assumed he was injured or like the test of the team had just given up.

I hope he’s not going to opt for the Matto option if the fine is increased!

Was going to guess Izaac Thompson but may have been following year
