The 2014 Willie M Medal: Round 16
The Newcastle Knights centre Joey Leilua is back on top in the Willie M Medal after another insipid performance, despite a Knights victory. Leilua carries on like he is Billy Slater but he plays like he is Greg Smith. Newcastle would be well off tossing his backside to reserve grade.
From The Couch: Round 16
Urine Big Trouble, Todd: Todd Carney has likely played his last game in the NRL, unbelievably adding a fresh new chapter to his big book of Rugby League atrocities by being photographed drinking his own piss. Now I’ve seen it all. The photo almost broke Twitter on Saturday night. By Sunday, Carney had been sacked […]
How do you solve a problem like Todd Carney?
Todd Carney – where do I even begin? Just over 24 hours after the Cronulla Sharks had posted just their third victory over the year over the Brisbane Broncos, Todd Carney decided it would be clever to get a mate to take a photo of him attempting to urinate in his own mouth. With friends […]

The 2014 Willie M Medal: Round 15
Cronulla are in a world of hurt. Their performances are awful. Their coaching situation is a mess. And their recruitment and retention has been diabolical. One player who likely won’t be at the club in 2015 is centre Blake Ayshford, who is now the front-runner for the 2014 Willie M Medal. He has been so […]
Playing the blame game
This afternoon, in a performance many Parramatta fans will be disappointed with, the Melbourne Storm have defeated the Parramatta Eels at AAMI Park 46-10. This score line is deceiving, because whilst the Melbourne Storm look to have run away with the game, the blow out in the score line really only came in the last […]

Golden Points – NRL Round 15 / State of Origin II
Round 14 Preview Fri: Canberra Raiders v Canterbury Bulldogs at GIO Stadium: The Raiders get a Friday night game at home – a phenomenon rarer than an off-contract player signing with Canberra – but the exposure is likely to do little for the club against a Canterbury side desperate to snap a three-game losing streak.
