As an aside Dally. Are you aware that a shoulder charge is illegal in Rugby League in junior rep footy?

nah didnt know that at all the soft gets

probably because of all the PI kids and their size advantage over the rest

the only junior RL ive been too was watching my 10 year old cousin a few years back on sundays

No.

St G have a kid called Evander something or other in SG Ball. I heard his name mentioned on the pitch. Good player, keep an eye out for him.

That question is about as relevant as if Dan Marino said he wanted to play Soccer, but would it be OK if they changed the shape of the ball just for him.
Union and League share a common origin........then it's a whole different ball game! (on the pitch)

heard the reports that saints are playing mick cronins son this week?

how is he not playing at parra.

keep an eye out for that kid you mentioned

If someone like Sean Fitzpatrick can get involved in RL in some capacity it has to be good for the game in NZ.
What would the NZ media make of it and surely it would get more people of his ilk involved.

The same way that the UK media would deal with Mr Wilkinson swapping codes.....2 days of news....then forgotten
Sad but unfortunately true

I never read the papers, but today I had a fry up and read the sports bit in Tele. Cronin's son is indeed playing for Dragons in Charity Shield.

Did you see the DPS on the votes re expansion and the Bears?

i dont understand what DPS is and the votes on expansion

whats gone on there.

i was with a guy yesterday and he told me hes signed up as a bears member. i never took him for a RL fan, rich businessman who always liked union

we lost a lot with the bears and if they dont get a team im going to be a little annoyed

saw the article

most nrl fans want the game too expand, and over 51% picked the bears as their preferred choice

also read the following THE Bears have just under 5600 financial members and 62 foundation members chipping in $5500 each.


so the bears have raised over 3 million dollars in capital from the 62 foundation members, plus sayers millions, as he is buying the club

www.dailytelegraph.com.au/sport/ ... 6003334396 NRL fans have spoken, they want the bears back in the nrl! "wake the bears from hibernaton"

www.dailytelegraph.com.au/sport/ ... 6003334396 NRL fans have spoken, they want the bears back in the nrl! "wake the bears from hibernaton"

wow, who'd have thought it a Sydney paper and fans vote for a NSW team, just!

the nrl is largely a sydney competition

good to see so much support for expansion and for the bears

JB, you should've cleared your cookies like the Bears fans did.
