Tevita Pangai Jr going to Catalans, WTF?

Absolute mercenary that bloke. All the talent one could ask for with one of the worst attitudes you could find.

Moses taking the paper bags and heading to the Roosters for just 100k a season?

Seems to me the shot-clock on scrum setting has been quietly forgotten about. Is that other posters' impression? Not that I think it's necessary anyway.

Still hating the no jeopardy rule on drop-outs. Worst rule change ever.

Why is the bye needed, or considered desirable? 17 teams in the NRL, why can't everyone play everyone else, home and away, that's 32 games. Why this complication?

32 is way too many, there's a stack of squads already who are decimated with injuries.

The contact is too significant to ask them to line up that many games week in and week out.
