Indeed he was. I was spewing when Lote left us. Lote had the world at his feet in rugby league, it's a shame he won't ever have the career he could have had as a rugby league player. Records were his for the taking when he was a youngster. Keep in mind, we are talking about the guy who still holds the record for most points in a State of Origin game for Queensland (18pts, 3 tries, 3 goals in 2002). Queensland had just come off a 32-4 hammering in game one, Lote turned up and turned in a memorable performance to help level the series.

From afar, and except for any game he plays against Brisbane, I will be cheering him on from afar.

i hope you are right as it means my team has more chance

its just the games so fast attacking teams just cant be held out

manly had a 16 point lead and when the tigers clicked they over came it

parra had no ball and still looked like scoring all the time

its good how there are different styles

ie attacking - parra, tigers
saints - brick wall defence

and teams that mix the 2.

St's v Bulldogs or Sth's v Wests would be great for the game in Sydney.

For the game as whole I'd love to see Warriors v Titans but can't see that this year.

jb talking up RL in sydney,

ive died and gone to heaven

for me :

saints / dogs - hate each other
saints / souths - history 65, 71
souths / tigers - history 1908, 1969
parra / dogs - history - 1980s GFs

And the award for Barry McKenzies new signature quote goes to the idiot who claims to support the Dragons even though he claims to live out West although he has never heard of the Blue Mountains.

Top stuff Dally.

Barry McKenzie thanks you

I don't know why it's taken me so long to ask, but I must've missed the whole Blue Mountains thing. How did the conversation/argument go?
