When was the last time burgers you get actually looked like the one you saw in pictures?

I'll wait......

De-Belin will apparently give clubs his decision by the end of August.

De Belin’s legal team have been locked in pre-trial argument and the judge has announced he will render a decision on August 28.

Once that decision has been handed down, the Dragons are expected to speak to the NRL about allowing de Belin to finish this season. It is understood there is little appetite for change within the NRL, meaning de Belin is unlikely to play again before his criminal case is heard in November.

I think if JDB does sign for the Warriors & he tries that shit in NZ there will be a lot of very bad consequences that he won't be expecting.
I'm liking getting some hard nosed Aussie pros in our pack. They will provide the edge that the current players can't provide. Lets face it our props are too small & easily dominated. For example they turned Paasi into a prop & he's not big enough.

If JDB is allowed to play would that not mean he is innocent?

Being found not guilty in a court of law does not mean innocence. In this case it may mean there wasn't enough evidence to prove what happened.

Everyone already knows he's guilty of sleeping with someone else while his missus was pregnant, irresepective of whether it was consensual or not.
Not a crime but speaks volumes about the type of person he is.

Heckin Liddle cheap as chips.

Roosters Trent Robinson confirms Roosters Co-Captain Boyd Cordner will be missing for a few more weeks as Roosters look to give him a 6 week break to overcome concussion issues like they did with Keary last year

Black Widow still looking like an option with trades to spare.

Also @Chewie thanks for your breakdown of TLT last night mate.

Kiwiburger looks like the McOz. New Zealand stealing our stuff again, just like the pavlova.

I beat ya to it lol.

But you raise a valid point.

But for real, does anywhere else in Aus have an NRL Sponsored burger?

Stoked as an Aubbo owner. I’ve already had Aubbo 3 weeks and it’s working a treat as not many wanted to go near him!

Pretty sure he has actual chips for legs and the french sort, not the chunky country cut

I think this weeks bench is worse for Tevaga than last weeks bench so I can't see extra mins for Tevaga. This week they have I. Papalii on the bench.

I am considering bringing Tevaga in for S. Crichton (already have Latrell and Aubbs at centre) so Jazz is my 17th man and Siro my 18th man then.

Do you think it’s a good move?

Leaves me no centre coverage but makes my 17 stronger.

You are mistaken, Sir.

I couldn't go back to him after he hurt me earlier this season, but good on your for backing yourself.

Nothing will top the local Toyota dealership in the Gong selling Hilux's as the WISHY WORKHORSE~! for at least 10 years. Don't see any other players good enough to have a fuckin' ute named after them, do you?

He also hurt me last year I think and earlier this year, 3rd time lucky I guess you could say.

I'm a 2-time Aubs owner, and if I had the need, I'd be a 2-time Fui owner this week. If both cases I think the bigger mistake is the first time, not the second.

Yeah I'm eyeing up Fui to free up some cash. Got Pompey instead of Aubbs, so think that was probably a mistake in hindsight too.

I got on aubbs as well weeks ago. as long as everyone with him is ready to be bitten in a few weeks then it's fine

I used him to let me hold onto sione in the hope that when he returns he's back into the 2nd row for H2H finals

Any extra aubbs 2nd row games beyond that is a bonus we shouldn't expect IMO
