NRL Fantasy 2021 Part 91 times out of ten, Fifita scores that try

Hope it stays at Suncorp Buzz said tonight 6 bays sold to Souths supporters and Penrith only managed to sell 3 bays.

Can’t wait to see a sea of red and green come Sunday and hear all the cheering and chanting coming through my TV.

Penrith are deserved favourites and rightfully so but you never know. In the betting Souths are already in from $2.50 to $2.25

Sounds like a few made their way from VIC to WA for the AFL Grand final. I wouldn't be surprised if WA come down hard on them and they see a few months in jail.

100% you will see the same thing happen for the NRL grand final but the lesson here is that they're gonna get caught but only after they attend a huge event and potentially spread the virus.

Cameron Munster, Brandon Smith and Chris Lewis to cop fines of up to $40,000 and two-game bans from the NRL over the white-powder scandal.
Storm will also issue sanctions. Total fines may reach $100k

Bit rough for Lewis. Probably looking at 25% of a year's salary while Munster (5%) and Smith (7.5%) can handle it a lot better

Pretty sure they scale the fines to reflect their salaries

Didn't even make the 21. Must be more to it.

Turbo winning the Dally M despite just playing 15 matches this season has to be a first right?

Not quite the same, but in 2009 Jarryd Hayne was on 5 points after 18 rounds, and finished on 30 points.

6 consecutive MOTM efforts from round 19-24

To be honest, i think it was a bit sus him playing with the Panthers at all anyway

Start the year as a Bronco, sign with the Dogs for next year, but go on a 3 month glory hunting stint with one of the premiership fasvourites? Not a good look

Same as with Ryan James and Horsburgh joining the Dogs for a couple of games. Outside of some extenuating circumstances around COVID I don't think such frequent club hopping benefits the game,

Yes, Steve Morris 16 games in 1979 is the e previous low. But the Rothmans Medal was the main prize back then.

Based on what happened with weekend at Vaughnies fines they will be scaled. Expect Munster to get a slightly larger fine thAn Smith who will get a much larger fine than Lewis.

Fox was reporting:
Cameron Munster will be fined up to $40,000, Brandon Smith $20,000, Reece Walsh from the Warriors probably $5,000, Chris Lewis $5,000

So, like Matt said, somewhat proportionate to their respective salaries

I'd love to see what actually happens with the 'bad boy fund' money. Does it go into community drug outreach programs? Men's mental health and mentoring? Pockets of executives?

IIRC A host of NRLW players and staff suggested using the fund to finance the women's season in QLD and the NRL told them to piss off.

EDIT: Just found this article https://www.espn.com.au/nrl/story/_/id/32092586/nrl-player-fines-skyrocket-1-million
So looks like the fund would be $900k-$1mil now.

Anyone know if there's a list of all the year's judiciary fines anywhere other than the weekly wrap page on NRL.com ?

It’s really not as transparent as it should be, but I recall reading a long time ago it goes to various community charities and grassroots programs that aren’t in the budget.

Couriermail reporting that Fogarty has been given permission to negotiate with rival clubs (and that the Titans will release him from the final 2 years of his contract) - with Sexton to be the first choice halfback next year.

Raiders are apparently the favourites to sign him.
