Errrr... no. Sure, he has 5, but Montana has 4 all without cheating GOAT!

It wasnt cheating... they just misinterpreted the rules

It's a team sport. Would Brady or Montana win with The Browns.

I'll put the 99 Rams against any team ever.

Greatest Show on Turf

85 Bears!
Rams wouldn't have scored a point against that wall

I did not know til today the Gold Coast Titans is administered (& for some time now) by the NRL authority. Is that not a conflict of interest?

So is Newcastle. Both teams poorly administered.

That's why the NRL was so happy to get Hayne to the Gold Coast, makes them more appealing to a potential buyer. If the Bears buy them out and change them to the Gold Coast Bears, the club will be dead in the water, all the Titans fans will be upset and all the (short) history will be gone.
I agree with Ben Ikin, if the Bears want to get back into the running of a club, join forces with an expansion club like Perth or Brisbane/Ipswich.

NRL is still hoping Newcastle Wests Club buys out the Knights but Wests want to pay bottom dollar (if they are even interested) so it is going nowhere fast.

AFL season proper starts tomorrow! So pumped!

One of the dumbest halves of footy I have ever watched a team play... way to blow a 16 to 6 lead at HT NSW...

NSW, the Richmond of SOO

Indeed.
It was right there for the taking, but in true NSW style they just switched off & started licking windows. Watch the Maroons take Game 3

Defeat from the jaws of victory once again.
When the forwards for NSW were so good for the first half, they looked so dangerous, then they went to defensive mode... that never works, no matter the sport.

Queensland to send Thurston, Slater and Cronk (and possibly Smith will retire from rep footy this year) out winners and then NSW will always have that stigma that they had to wait for the QLD legends to retire to win series.

-EDIT-
Just also wanted to say how good (in a good way) it was to see Boyd Cordner's reaction to the loss, you could see how much it meant to him (and also that his calf muscle was probably killing him!) If the last NSW had cared and that much passion, it may have won NSW more than 1 series in the last decade.

Character statements from Malcolm Turnbull & Waheed Ali for Bachar Houli on a striking charge. Really?
