at the end of yesterday, were they in a worse position than half the teams there?

I just find it amazing that a bloke can have his team coming third out of four and think that that is a better position than half the teams there.

Obviously I know what he is trying to say, but I am coming at it from the top down and looking at the whole thing saying that they are in the bottom 50% so they cant be better than half of the teams there. he is coming from the bottom up, saying that they are better than or just as bad as everyone in the bottom 50%.

That I shall do

I've come up with an idea that might get teams to send full strength squads in the future. Instead of playing for prize money that no club really gives a shit about, maybe they should play for salary cap money. For example; winner gets $500,000 added to their salary cap to use within 3 years, spent however they like. Losing teams get el-squoto

Donkeys have their own laws and dont need bonus salary caps

Careful Welshy people seem to go mysteriously silent (missing?) after making malicious comments about the Broncos!

all well and good I'm tucked up over here in Wales then fella!

Knights in good shape next year with Ponga.

Does anyone know the finals structure? Eg which QF winners play which in the semis?

There is no cross over.

Not sure what you mean. Just trying to work out who broncos would meet in SF if they win their QF. Is it cows? Or is it set up so we woulf get cows in the GF

People have been raving over Jai Field, but did he show much other than just being really quick.
Not sure why he is "demanding" inclusion in first grade

he looked dangerous.. but yeah mostly just quick.

the more we see of ponga, the more his deal looks like a bargain for the knights

anyone else think Latrell Mitchell is looking a bit heavy around the mid section?

As a long suffering Knights fan I'm so happy to see Ponga doing well and even happier he's staying at the Cowboys this year to further his development that little bit more.

couldnt agree more HS

Broncos are goneskies

Hey Pieman. Archer didn't say they were "better than" 50%, he said that they were "better than OR equal to" 50%, which is a correct mathematical/logical statement (25% + 25% = 50%). Obviously they were only "BETTER than" 25%, but that isn't what Archer was (semantically) arguing.
