What happened to the hip-hop thread? Did it disappear from sight?

I don't disagree with charcoalchicken at all, but my point remains! :D

I'll just cut and paste what I posted on a Wigan forum earlier: I'm half-way through the Season Review, and the thought occurs again (I've already seen the The Wigan Way one, and the earlier, shorter one on Wigan TV). There is not a team on the planet that has scored so many remarkable...

Cowboys have signed John Bateman? WTAF?

I have one! Unfinished Sympathy by Massive Attack. Don't get me wrong,; I love it, and have listened to it a zillions times. But I've always thought; it's not quite a proper song, is it? It's just a repeated riff (albeit, a brilliant one), but it never supersedes the impact of the first twenty...

The Needle And The Damage Done. Beautiful melody, but trite lyrics that I'm sure NY wouldn't subscribe to now.

And I should add; so is Molly Tuttle!

There's always this classic:

Heh! I remember when I thought that was the funniest song in the world! :D I doubt I'd think that now, though.

Thanks, guys, for some great ideas for further listening, That Labi Siffre track alone; I 'd never heard. Wow, what a tune! :D

There's a fair few Kumuls playing in SL they might look to attract, and they might be more up for it than NRL stars like Coates.

Decent signing, I'd say.

Surely there's no reason why escorts should not be penalised in the same way as they are in the NRL? Don't see why it's a cause for crisis.

if your spine and your front row isn’t doing a great job And yet the Eels first-choice halves pairing would be the envy of most sides in the comp, so where's the problem?

Garry Schofield has revealed that he has been diagnosed with brain damage. Schofield, who previously played for Hull FC & Leeds Rhinos as well as Great Britain, says he is stepping away from rugby league for good. Schofield confirmed that he received his diagnosis last March, which came after...

Second Test at Headingley: England (22) 34 Tries: Marshall, Williams, Ashton, Farnworth (2), Welsby Goals: Smith (5) Samoa (6) 16 Tries: Blore, Tago, Nanai Goals: Pauga (2) England clinch the series win with a convincing victory against a nevertheless much-improved Samoa side. Herbie once...

Cracking contest. The Tonga fans are amazing.

The Kiwis can't be too down for a first run-out. But for all the commentary praised SJ (and I'm not saying he had a poor game at all), the Kiwis didn't do enough with the field position they had. Badly needed a threat at 6. But of course, the Kangaroos' defence is excellent. Lomax seems to have...

First test this afternoon at Wigan. Weather fine and sunny, quite mild (I went on my motorbike!). England (16) 34 Tries: Farnworth, Ashton (2), Williams, Radley, Lewis Goals: Smith (5) Samoa (6) 18 Tries: Mariner (2), Chan Kum Tong Goals: Pauga (3) Decent performance from England, despite a...

BB has always impressed me. Before him there was Quade Cooper (who I only found out recently is actually a Kiwi). In England, there's Marcus Smith (an actual proper 'playmaker') and Alex Dombrandt.

And think, who are the guys who would make good league players? I appreciate that (I assume) union and league are both winter sports in Oz, and are played more or less concurrently. In England, there's a dead period after the GF in October and no league until February, so I watch the RU...

OK, so how open are Australians outside of NSW and QLD to embrace league? Is AFL more popular than league in Victoria, WA, NT, Tassie, etc?

Ezra Mam: career suicide? Head-on crash, causing serious injuries to a woman and her young daughter, WTF?

Could be worse, you could have our leadership. The NRL is a model of efficiency and probity by comparison.

But fortunately, the product is pretty good.

Matt Moylan retired.

No surprise to see the Kumuls turn over Fiji, who only seem to have half a team. Bit surprised they didn't play Ipape, dunno if he's fully fit, but he's arguably the best 9 in SL.

Tonga sure left a few tries out there, and showed impressive goal-line defence. Although he did one very good thing, and didn't have a terrible game by any means, Lolo is no Moses. Have Tonga got anyone better? Debutants for the Kangaroos did well, but their completion rate was rubbish, and a...
