That’s possible, or they could be like the Kangaroos in the AFLW (full name: North Melbourne Tasmanian Kangaroos).

Ah ok like the ‘Perth-North Sydney Bears’. Not a bad option.

I’m not a fan of that approach.

I like to know who they represent - its almost like they are afraid / ashamed to say they represent Perth, North Sydney or Redcliffe (for the Dolphins).

The first half between Storm and Panthers was a great game despite the weather.

Whilst only down 6-12 at half time, Melbourne needed to score the first try of the 2nd half, when that didn’t happen, Penrith started to run away with it.

Would have been much closer with Paps and Hughes playing, I still think Penrith would have won anyway. Losing to the Eels last week stung them a bit.

Sorry, Radiohead

The Milk was too hot for my liking.
I took it back to the supermarket for a refund.
Milk is SUPPOSED to be cold.

But yes, Canberra played very well, if they keep playing like that, they should be able to force their way into the Top 8.

Cronulla missed both Will Kennedy and Jesse Ramien, out through suspension. They also dropped an awful amount of football in the first half, some of that was because of the Raiders strong defence.

Broncos too good for the Knights 36-12

If Reynolds had been playing, they would have scored 50 I think.

Lucky you being in the corporate box :slight_smile:

First half was close. The second half was better for the Broncos. Runaway winners.

Yeah, the Knights had all the field position in the 1st half, couldn’t convert into points. Brisbane were only on the Knights line twice and got a try.

Knights defence is still very average, obviously.

CEO Cameron George says (Nathan) Brown did not wish to relocate to New Zealand and that the club would respect his wishes.

“Nathan told us he had made a personal decision that for family reasons he wouldn’t be able to relocate to New Zealand as originally planned for the long term,” said George in a club statement.

Both of these items made the 7pm VIC ABC News bulletin.

Neither sacking really surprises me, the Tigers have struggled for years, haven’t made the finals in 10 seasons, Nathan Brown struggled at Newcastle before joining the Warriors
