Re: Briedis and Nicholas
Only 24. Played for Australia at 21. And his last year at Cronulla (2001) was fairly crap - he was dropped to 1st division in Round 16 and never returned.
Of course GayFL will come 1st on the website for GayFLers influenced by the biased Melbourne media.
And even still Nicko, you're comparing NRL games with state level Yawnion games. Sorry that the truth hurts nicko, but LEAGUE ****S OVER YAWNION IN CLUB CROWDS AND SOO OVER S12! This is a fair...
Sort of off-topic, but this would be my Kiwi test team.

Learnt math? 17,671 + 11,469! Total average rugby league crowd in Queensland is 29,140. And remember the Broncos aren't playing at Mecca (Lang Park)!
You're comparing one team with 9. So a fair comparison is all Sydney league teams with the kick and clap people. And the crowd average for...
GayFL people!
Check the facts idiots! Australia lost to Great Britain in the first match of the Ashes LAST YEAR. Not competitive, what a load of bull****.
Get your head out of your arse.
And YET, you have the audacity to criticise RL for having poor role models, which is highly...
I last went to an Aussie Rules game last year, and only went because my friend was trying to convert me back. But seriously, I spent more time in the Diamond Club thing getting food and drink than watching the game! And I would never go to a Union game.
Your "All Australian Team" doesn't even play your crappy sport of GayFL. It's a hybird mixture of Gaelic footy and your crap code. That cannot be considered an AFL international, because AFL WAS NOT PLAYED!
30,000 total in Sydney? XD you make me laugh.
Cronulla get a minimum of 10,000, Wests get good crowds at Leichardt, Bulldogs around 8,000 on average, Parramatta 14,000, and Penrith don't get less than 10,000 too often.
The fact is Sydney is a TV City and prefer watching it from the...
I reckon Lockyer has to be a damn good chance. Although I think Shane Webcke would make a good captain as well.
If selectors were smart enough to realise there's no quality centres apart from Chris McKenna and Jamie Lyon they'd have Lockyer in the Centres and Peachey at the back, then Peachey...
RL is in fact an INTERNATIONAL SPORT and always will be, and it is growing at an ever increasing rate. A league has been re-established in Serbia (they used to play it in Yugoslavia before war and stuff), Lebanon set one up after the World Cup, they have one in the USA (www.amnrl.com), a Kenyan...
Once again Hindmarsh and Vella went missing at the top level. Johns proved yet again he's not good enough for SOO - bring back Kimmorley!
Menzies was good, but could have got more involved at the start.
NSW lost because Hodgson wasn't 100% fit and was badly exposed at the back. Peachey...
The last time NSW played well, who was halfback?
Brett KIMMORLEY
Like him or not, he's a bloody good player.
And Hodgson wasn't 100% fit, and his defense at the back was exposed. Peachey should have been used as he's a better defender and just as good in attack.
Preston Campbell won't go to Souths.
They should be relocated to the Gold Coast. This is how the NRL will be in 7 years under my plan. An 18 team nationwide comp.
1. Canterbury Bulldogs @ Belmore (liverpool if it ever happens)
2. Newcastle Knights @ Marathon (redeveloped)
3. Brisbane...
I agree. I don't know Howe he ever made the test team, let alone SOO. He's a drug taker, he's a thug, which means to be on over $300,000 he is OVERPAID.
The standard of Internationals in RU and RL are relatively equal. I don't know why everyone has this false perception of RL's internationals being a joke. New Zealand and Great Britain can match it with the Aussies, while you'll find the Pacific Island nations don't have the depth but have the...
I can confirm to Bombers supporters that former Footscray Bulldog and Richmond Tiger, Justin Charles, will be making a comeback for the Bombers in 2003 or '04. Charles was suspended in 1998 for taking anabolic steroids in order to help his hammy heal quicker. He is now doing Drug Education in...
I would agree, nicko18. If the Storm are to be successful they need to be here for the next 10-15 years to see the results. They are starting some good things though, like the Melbourne Storm Developmental Squad which is basically the pick of the best juniors in Victoria. Apparently they are...
Re: Re: Briedis..
Parramatta, Penrith and Wests supporters are generally OK. Saints fans are widely regarded as 'scum', and rightly so. It's hard to hear a slight hint of intelligence from them; meanwhile Bulldogs fans are actually quite nice but a group of about 40-50 gather around the big...
Going back to the 2000 RLWC, the only time Australia scored 100 points or more was against Russia.
And remember, in Russia there is over 12,000 juniors. Tartarstan it is growing, as is Wales and I was surprised myself when the Kenyans announced they were going to set up a RL comp.
