    NRL And Rugby League Chat.

    Just thought i would try to start a thread on all things NRL and league.

    It has been a big few days in footy,Ben Hannet coming to the mighty Cowboys which i think is great for the club and great for him. JT,Matt Scott,James Tamou all ruled out for the Kangaroos but it will give all three a full pre-season under Paul Green. St Helens 14 Wigan 6 in the English league,that hit on Hohia was very nasty,but he brought it on himself. But to punch a player who is on the ground knocked out is a dog act. All this talk about the Kangaroos being a little weak this year is a bit far fetched. They will still have a powerful side. And lastly Tonga Vs PNG,i think PNG will be a little outclassed in this game,but expect some BIG hits from both sides.

    A great chance for Penrith's Matt Moylan, & Josh Mansour, & Newcastle's Sione Mata'utia to be selected for the four Nations, along with Ben Hunt. Aaron Woods , Dylan Napa & Josh Papali did ok in the Prime Ministers 13 against PNG. Ben Flower cost his team any chance of winning the Super League Final. OK Hohaia elbowed Flower, but any smart footballer knows how to get payback, without drawing the attention of the officials. Coach Nathan Brown has done well over in England, Bob

    Aaron woods will go alright good prop. Hunt is going to be a superstar,with Bennett's guidance he can only get better. A bit like when Bennett worked with Soward.

    Looking forward to Hunt & Milford next year, Did you hear about Willie Mason going to Manly? I questioned the resident Manly tragic down the club, with connections at Manly, he told me Whatmough has been a destabilising influence , they will be glad to send him to PARRA. Bob

    half way through another book from the second hand shop some of you guys may like

    Big Artie,The autobiography.

    Not a bad read,lot of behind the scenes stuff on Arties life.

    Gees footy was biff and bash in those days.
    You sort of forget what it was really like,after watching the modern game.

    Back to NRL,the pressure will be on Bennet,i bet he will be all over the Courier Mail all the time.Not really something i approve of,they should give him a bit of space.

    Just my 2 cents worth.

    Don't worry mate, Bennett loves it, plays them like a fish. It's all part of the theatre. Old Artie had a pub team on the Redcliffe peninsula years ago, my mad brother & his mates played in it. The standard was ordinary, but the party after, legendary. How long before the season starts? Bob

    Mason at Manly? Wow nah Bob had no idea,not a bad move. It seems Manly are not a happy club at the moment. I could be wrong and probably am,it looks like a lot of players are looking around for new clubs? In terms of Milford and Hunt,very exciting times ahead for the Broncos. Any word on what Russel Packer is up to?

    Apparently Mason to Manly depends on Whatmough leaving, Bob


    From Alex McKinnon to Nathan Tinkler, the Newcastle Knights’ NRL season 2014 was full of heartbrake


    Packer is still in jail, I think. The NRL have to clear him to play. Doubtful

    Some more, check out the video of the junior Kangaroos, some impressive young players there, Bob


    Willie Mason set to add his experience to the Manly Sea Eagles’ pack next season

    Tariq sims is a very good addition for the Knights. It won't be long before he pulls on the blue jersey for NSW. The last i heard Packer was talking to the Broncos and Penrith, but if the NRL wont register the contract it wont happen. I think its time choc moved on,maybe a new club would be good for him. And Parramatta are building towards being a great club again. Talking parra though, i dont understand how Jarrayd Hayne managed to poll enough votes to tie with JT for the Dally M this years?
