    After a good start to the season I'm now looking at only 1 tip for the week. What a shocker.

    The color of immortality, nature and envy - you are truly a unique person. While clearly the color of nature, you also symbolize rebirth, fertility and hope in the world. On the other side of the spectrum, a natural aptitude to money with green coming to signify money and possibly even *********!

    And true to form, Souths will win tomorrow.
    Beware the lollipop of mediocrity. Lick once and you suck forever...

    Nah, it's a fair point. The trouble is tho if the cap is removed the chances are the NRL will end up with an EPL scenario with the best players at the richest clubs and the same four or five teams finishing top five every season.

    Shame when teams are broken up because of the cap tho, 2004 Bulldogs seemed to be v badly affected by it.
    - As featured in The Independent.

    "This is not the time for namby-pamby promising youngsters who might just do something; not the time for building for the future. Pragmatism rules and they don't come more pragmatic than Rogers."
    - Victor Marks makes the case for stiff-legged and stiff-armed 35 year old left-handers in Ashes squads

    Decided that I'd put $1 on every outsider for the whole season as an experiment. Is proving to be a fruitful round.

    NJ Kruger, *SM Katich, LA Carseldine, MEK Hussey, Mohammad Ashraful, NT Broom, AA Noffke, +Mushfiqur Rahim, Mashrafe Mortaza, DE Bollinger, WAP Mendis.

    As a Roosters fan, I'm all for this.
    The one, the only CW Black
    Code:
    47.3 W Coppinger to Heads 
    Smacked the ball straight into the groin of Iwuajoku who has fallen over, 
    miraculously with the ball still caught in his scrotal area! Out!

    Is this the end of the road of Melbourne's domination? I say yes.

    It was always going to be a rebuilding year.

    Yes, but I still thought they'd be top 4 or 6 (may well still be) but never thought id see them be so unenthusiastic and lose like that at home to a team like the Titans.

    Aye, heads will probably roll for that "effort" last night. But fair play to the Titans, proving they can win without Prince.

    I said something similar a few weeks back and was greeted with this message:
