A Shallow Dive into the minor rugby leagues in 2021

Regular readers will know that I like to keep up with all the developments in world football, not just the top level. Because so many second and third class comps were cancelled last year, we aren’t able to do a serious season preview for each one in 2021 (if I even had the time). Many… Read More A Shallow Dive into the minor rugby leagues in 2021

A deep dive in to the 2020 Queensland Cup

I was always vaguely aware of the Queensland Cup growing up, but only really took an actual interest in it when I started this site a couple of years ago. I became a Souths Logan fan, because that’s where I lived most of my life, and started going to games. Since then, I’ve toyed with… Read More A deep dive in to the 2020 Queensland Cup

NRL Tips – Round 25, 2019

I wrote about Sydney as an obstacle to expansion yesterday. It started as an intro to this post but ended up being over 1000 words and I thought it should stand alone. It’s the result of thoughts that have been bubbling since I started paying proper attention to rugby league when I started doing this… Read More NRL Tips – Round 25, 2019

NRL Tips – Round 24, 2019

Some additional rugby league reading for you: With two rounds left in the #NRL, it's pretty much a four horse race with two clear favourites (no surprises). The bottom two could be swapped for any of the teams in contention and it probably wouldn't matter much overall. pic.twitter.com/plb9bBm9JL — Liam (@pythagoNRL) August 26, 2019 And… Read More NRL Tips – Round 24, 2019

NRL Tips – Round 23, 2019

Apologies for there not being any tips last week. I was in Perth.

NRL Tips – Round 20, 2019

I’ll spare you the lengthy and moderately pompous words I had written about cheating. The last week has been dominated by refs faulting to a sickening degree and to a lesser extent, the lack of appreciation of Super League on the Gold Coast. The announcement of St Helens coach Justin Holbrook as the Titans new… Read More NRL Tips – Round 20, 2019

NRL Tips – Round 19, 2019

Unrelated to the NRL premiership itself, it’s been a good week for rugby league headlines (except for Ottawa).
