<p>"Sydney hit by massive dust storm as Parramatta Eels return home to open trophy cabinet"</p>
<p> </p>
<p>:lol:</p> -
<p>I see in the Sydney press this morning there's a report that last season 13 of the 16 NRL clubs ran an operational loss, combined operational losses of over A$42 million. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Warriors, Broncos and Souths the only teams to turn an operational profit.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>There seems to be blame attributed to non-player costs blowout.</p>

<p>Not surprised Parramatta is the worst performing club. Those poor bastards are still paying out contracts for players who won them the wooden spoon several years ago.</p> -

<p>And $50,000 to Hayne.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Penrith also posted a substantial loss presumably related to the costs of feeding Phil Gould's tremendous ego.</p> -

<p>Yep, presumably as a good will gesture for when he inevitably returns. Does not count against the cap I believe.</p> -
<p>World team defeats the Indigenous team 12-8 at Suncorp Stadium. More importantly Konrad looked good and even grabbed a try for the World team.</p>

<p>I guess the cost of brown bags has exploded in recent years</p> -
Nah, not to me at least. He never enjoyed the aspects which came with the role (media, promotions) and Ryan Hoffman was the de facto captain already.
-
<p>Hoffman will make a good captain , I reckon , </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Pretty smart level headed guy , and he seems to enjoy the media stuff that will come with it </p> -
<p>A week until the greatest game of all starts up again and <a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='http://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/league/77337707/troubled-league-star-kevin-locke-speaks-out-about-tough-times-battling-depression'>Kevin Locke opens up about his suicide attempts</a>. Heard chatter of this through out the years but sad to see it was a reality. Can't believe he is only 26 years old. Hopefully he can rebuild a career in league or union.</p>

<p>Time to dust off that old rollercoaster ride for the 21st time. Let's do this muthafuckers.</p>

<p style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:'Open Sans', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">Some interesting calls. Bodene Thompson is still returning from injury but Henry starting is a surprise. Can see a last minute change with Henry on the bench, Roache out and Vete in. Don't like the centre pairing as Kata is terrible at defence and Ashyford is a NSW Cup player at best. Cappy still hates Konrad it seems. Listen Cappy: Fusitua and Hurrell. You're welcome.</p> -

<p>Coach must surely be on the hot seat if things don't go well. It's a gamble pinning your future job hopes on an untested centre combination. If the wah wahs don't get away to a good start in the first half of the season the drums will be beating and the knives will be out</p>

<p>oh no Sneak, neither me nor Gal Gadot there are falling for this bullshit again. No way we are getting on this train. </p>

<p>This year, i am expecting nothing. If by some miracle it goes well, i would like to be pleasantly surprised. </p>

<p>Even Inside Sport have finally stopped picking the warriors as ones to watch. 10th. 10th i tell you. With a new "caretaker" coach by seasons end</p> -
I assume that's a clip of her turning down your vile sexual approach online?
