Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

My sentiments exactly , it drives me nuts every time we play them , they target our playmakers , whereas we just seem to stand back and admire there's
Anybody can look world class given time and space , quite simply make sure the 1 st time either of them touches the ball , they get tackled with it , from then on the pressure alone will do the job , and if we do get our hands on them , make it count , they do , as Sam can attest to , there was no quarter given to him last week was there

| Exactly mate, it's a shambles that I haven't seen any other sport do.
Ridiculous.

| Ru have had this problem before, with different interpretations of rucking causing a problem between Northern and Southern hemisphere.
Football is a simpler game so less interpretation needed, but still the diving is handled differently in other leagues to the Premiership.
Not just us, its just we change ours way more than other sports so plenty of opportunity to get ouit of sync.

| Again though, just because Australia wants to change something why should the whole world go with it. Australia doesn't rule RL and thats where the problem lies in this regard. Yes we know the NRL is the biggest and bestest league evaaaaaa but folks in the UK, France, USA shouldn't have to jump to your tune always. FWIW I actually prefer some of the NRL changes and interpretations, especially 10 subs

NRL expansion? Sometime soon, maybe......:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_9857.jpg |

| NRL has 2 refs and the tackle/play of the ball is a massive mess compared to SL's. 2 refs do not improve the game imo.

| Quote: Jonesy "Maybe if the rules between SL and the NRL become the same rules and interpretations and then they are made the International rules it would help the Referees be consistent.
Its a total cock up at the moment with no one happy.'"
Totally agree Jonesy.
On top of that. I do get a feel that here in Oz, the refs are far more happier to refer a decision when it comes to something serious by option to put things on report rather than be bold and make a decision.
