    To be fair he did stumble coming out of the tackle

    Su'a tried to tackle the Tongan rock that is Havili & got knocked senseless. Havili must be as strong as an ox because whenever he hits the ball up the first tackler usually gets sat on his ass. When Havili tackles someone he halts their progress & the post contact metres are usually in the negative because he drives them backwards.

    Yeah, no reason why it couldn't have been both in the same tackle. It was just hilarious how Andy phrased it.

    Yep, definitely had a limp from it as well.

    Fair enough you deleted that, but fuck me I’m pissed off. How dare these twats use labels like that because they disagree. They’re the fucking bigots. No one can have a different opinion.

    Kudos to you for your balance. I know than you know me better than most here.

    Tell some of these idiots to pull their head in.

    Is I. Papalii's price too awkward as it's in the mid range price category. It seems like his floor is mid 30's & his ceiling is mid 60's. He could actually benefit with Harris out because the left edge might get more ball. In terms of pure base stats over the last 5 games:
    Minutes = 67, 54, 80, 80, 80
    Tackles = 41, 25, 43, 35, 39 = average 36.6 tackles per game
    Run metres = 54, 24, 104, 52, 103 = average 67.4 metres per game

    Just based on that = 44 points & you could probably bump up the run metre average by 3-4 points.

    I don’t really care what you or the other idiot think, to be honest. Half you morons wouldn’t know a tongue in cheek comment if it bit you on the arse.

    I’m neither homophobic or racist. I know your type likes to label people who have conservative views and don’t tow the trendiest line, but you couldn’t be more wrong.

    I just get pissed of with left wing bullshit and I’ll say my piece. You can do as you please. As can the other tossers who don’t like the truth.

    Don’t you dare refer to me with either of those tags. I don’t care what you do with your personal life, or how much of a SJW you think you are, don’t shove it down my throat.  Phobia is a fear btw. I fear nothing or no one.

    Who the fuck do you think you are? Just lol.

    Of you want me to leave the forum just say so. Then I’ll decide.

    - Love it when bigots claim conservative views as a lifestyle choice that you should respect when they show no respect in turn.
    - Also love it when they call those who try to discern equality as trying to be trendy, as if their morals are more malleable and worth less.
    - Definitely love it when they wrongly interpret the meaning of homophobia and somehow twist it to an insult toward their masculinity, many lols were had.
    - Pièce de résistance being the misuse of the word 'truth' passed off as universal truth in an effort to give weight to what is only ever the opinion of some old flog. A classic Trumpism at it's finest.

    Ticks all the boxes for me- I for one vote that Rabbit stays. For reals, this guy is just way too much fun  cheer  cheer  cheer

    There was a magic run with no key injuries two years ago leading up to the finals. Last year wasnt too bad by memory either. 

    But the new format means you have to have cover for every position which will keep teams second guessing

    QLD are losers.

    The Bonzos won’t make the 8.

    Souths flogged the Cowboys again, even with the refs aiding the QLDers as usual.

    Souths are your Premiers. Get on, but gamble responsibly.

    The problem with intellectual minnows is they are too naive to perceive the argument.
    Arn't you too busy with your 25 years of telling people how you once played a bit of sport 25 years ago?

    I'm a bit torn by the "don't trade keepers" rule this week. I'm pretty damn tempted by Harris and Ponga to Hodgson and Farah. But I'd been planning on moving Murray and Tuala to some variant of scrub/gun.

    I guess we'll keep on waiting for more injury news, but 4 weeks out apiece doesn't leave a lot of scoring rounds left.
