@tigertownsfs I'm not particularly in for this half or that half but I do hope Sheens and, more importantly, Benji can get the players they want. And ...

@helmesy The Eels have finished in the top 8 twelve times since 2000 & been in 3 Grand Finals. They had that very poor period between 2008-2016 ma...

@mickb It could impact other clubs’ ability by giving them more room in their cap if their high earners are not on ratchet clauses. I doubt a club lik...

@tiger5150 Of course it’s ridiculous but to attract players, who are in high demand, to a club that performs poorly a five year offer might help, it m...

Assuming the ‘cap’ is raised to over $10 million here’s a question for those who want the club to go after Moses. If the club was to offer him 5 years...

@helmesy 2025. It’s starting to all make sense now isn’t it, or is it?

@garry My odds much better than Fox League, they’ve now got Benji/Benji at 11/4. A mysterious punter, looking a little like Buzz Rothfield, placing a ...

I guess for something similar to work in a NRL draft where picks are allotted a points value and where the previous season’s worst performing clubs re...
