The 2015 Willie M Medal: Round 21
Last year’s winner Joey Leilua is making a late-season push with Canberra to go back-to-back with a stinker against the Cowboys, claiming worst-on-ground status. He has claimed five points in the last two weeks and will be pushing right to the end with his all-round awful game.

The Fifita Fools: Andrew and David Fifita are giant human beings. And they also appear to be giant knobs. They should not have been eligible to play for the Sharks on Sunday against the Bulldogs. David didn’t play because he is as bad a first grade footballer as he is a spectator at junior Rugby […]
The 2015 Willie M Medal: Round 20
With six weeks to play, we are set for another ripping finale with Tyrone Roberts moving to within two points of leader Mitchell Moses. Roberts missed eight tackles and failed to run the ball once in an insipid worst-on performance against the Bunnies that would see him dumped if it weren’t for Jarrod Mullen’s season-ending […]
The 2015 Willie M Medal: Round 19
It is incredible the lengths Chris Sandow will go to avoid a third Willie M Medal. To not try … wow.
From The Couch: Round 19
Chris Sandow Is An Embarrassment to Rugby League: In all my years watching top grade Rugby League, never once have I heard a coach intimate one of his players wasn’t trying and had faked an injury, nor have I heard of players brushing a teammate over same. Yet that is exactly what happened in the […]
The 2015 Willie M Medal: Round 18
Tyrone Roberts has not enjoyed a good week, hearing news that Trent Hodkinson would be the Knights halfback in 2016 before moving to second in the 2015 Willie M Medal count after a truly inept display against the Raiders on Friday night. Roberts’ saving grace could be the very real chance he sees out the […]
From The Couch: Round 18
Origin Disgrace: Losing an Origin match 52-6 is embarrassing but the reaction of coach Laurie Daley following the humiliation was downright embarrassing. New South Wales were thumped from beginning to end. There is no hiding from the fact a much better team annihilated the Blues on every level. They went out to embarrass the Blues […]
From The Couch: Round 17
Origin III Preview – Here Come The Blues: It has taken to the third game but I am on board the Blues in what shapes as being an open game that could end Queensland’s dynasty. If the referees maintain their interpretation of the 10, then that will play into the hands of the Blues. The […]
From The Couch: Round 16
Where Will Kieran Go: The Kieran Foran saga is set to drag on well into next week and perhaps even longer as the unlucky five-eighth looks to make some hay with the sun well and truly set. And that won’t be at Parramatta with the Eels delusional if they think they can pull this from […]
The 2015 Willie M Medal: Round 15
Mitchell Moses has pulled to a four-point lead in the 2015 Willie M Medal after claiming three votes in the loss to the Sea Eagles. Moses can pull off a spectacular play – and that unpredictability can be helpful – but his game isn’t close to being ready for regular first grade.
