Was Todd Carney’s punishment too harsh?

Todd Carney didn’t commit a crime by urinating into his own mouth, but it was definitely very stupid. I’m not too sure why anyone would want to urinate into their own mouth but Todd Carney thought it was funny and unfortunately for him, he was photographed while doing it. The Cronulla Sharks have terminated Carney’s […]

How do you solve a problem like Todd Carney?

Todd Carney – where do I even begin? Just over 24 hours after the Cronulla Sharks had posted just their third victory over the year over the Brisbane Broncos, Todd Carney decided it would be clever to get a mate to take a photo of him attempting to urinate in his own mouth. With friends […]

#upupcronulla

Despite being a massive Parramatta supporter, the Cronulla Sharks are always a team that I have had a soft spot for – probably because the Sharks seem to be the Club where so many of my Eels have gone over the years when they are looking for a new club. Names that come instantly to […]

NRL referees: With control comes respect

With two sin binnings on the weekend, it’s clear NRL referees are cracking down on the way they are spoken to. Chris Sandow was given 10 in the bin for questioning how much the referee was getting paid. This wasn’t the best way for Sandow to deal with the situation, but I can understand his […]

Playing the blame game

This afternoon, in a performance many Parramatta fans will be disappointed with, the Melbourne Storm have defeated the Parramatta Eels at AAMI Park 46-10. This score line is deceiving, because whilst the Melbourne Storm look to have run away with the game, the blow out in the score line really only came in the last […]

I started the blog one year ago today as a 24 year […]

Who would want to be a coach in the NRL?

There is no doubt about it – I would not want to be a coach in the NRL. The inspiration for this story came after I worked out that Newcastle and Wayne Bennett have only won 2 from 13 games this season. Despite this woeful start to the season, very little is saying about Bennett’s […]

Being superstitious makes me blue

I should begin this post by saying that I am a superstitious person when it comes to football. In the past I have been known to make comments like “I can’t tip against the Eels, because then they will win to spite me.” I am convinced that if I am invited to an event and […]

LwL People of Influence – Rebecca Frizelle

In order for women to continue to make their mark in NRL, female leadership needs to be visible and it needs to be visible at all levels of the game. We wanted to congratulate the Gold Coast Titans and celebrate our person of influence for today – Rebecca Frizelle. This year, the Gold Coast Titans […]
