    I don't normally "buy in" to this kind of stuff, but the whole 15k ring thing seems very off to me. It is just incredibly naive from Greenberg. Bloody stupid. It is actually insulting to every other partner of the players, in my opinion.

    All this time we thought it was CS9 getting up to no good, but it is actually his wife and Greenberg having the affair

    I honestly think it is just a case of the NRL maybe taking the congratulatory commiserations a little too far. I do believe as a partner she, a long with every other WAG of the game or any game, deserve to be credited and congratulated in some sort of way for putting up with all the time away and long days and long nights and whatever else being a WAG has to bring but maybe a shirt would've gone down a little better. I think what intrigues me the most is that the $15K ring was not disclosed as one of the "gifts" as a part of Cam Smith's 400th celebrations.

    My chances of taking the Trophy in L51 are pretty slim, but hey the chances of Luke dropping that bomb in the sweet spot during his death star raid were pretty slim too. See you in the GF Bethany!

    Yup, unless you somehow get knocked out earlier on the other side of the draw

    Some worse than expected news for Jacob Liddle. As well as ACL he has done further damage to his knee. 9-12 months on sideline. Poor bloke. Also Robbie Farah said to be a “fair chance” of playing against Cronulla. https://twitter.com/Danny_Weidler/status/1162230565090684928?s=19

    I thought B. Elliott had a great game last night & he's really come on since he joined Manly. He's a filler for the team but even when he was filling in for Turbo he had some great games at f/b & last night at ctr they just couldn't contain him.

    Last night in sc I was supposed to trade D. Walker to Ma'u but with the Taupau injured in warm up news I forgot to do the trade & had D. Walker in my starting team & he ends up having a great game with a try. This is proof on how luck can play such a big factor in any fantasy game.

    Shame about Liddle, especially since he was virtually guaranteed of the hooking role come round 1 next year. Was almost certainly going to be in my fantasy team as well...

    I love it when over confidence comes crashing back to earth in a big ball of flames !!

    We have only played each other once in L51 this year in round 13.
    How did that work out for ya Chewie ?

    But if someone gets KO’d by a similar incident the bloke dropping the knee will get 10 weeks.

    It is mental that you can deliberately knee a player in the head and not be suspended. I don’t tend to complain about the game but the MRC needs a RC to blow it up and start again.

    Its fucking stupid.. The intentional shit, like a knee to the head, is the stuff that should be rubbed out of the game. Someone like Fifita though, does a ~borderline shoulder tackle, in the act of, just trying to play rugby league, and they get suspended for weeks. Its so dumb. They can't get their priorities right and they're forever bowing to whatever crisis bullshit has been drummed up in the past 7 days in the media.

    Not aware of the CS9 incident?

    Lets not forget Gurgess got how many weeks for putting his hand gingerly over robbies face?.

    No i think the system is perfectly equitable.
