The 1990s was an important decade for State of Origin’s outreach, and its reputation for being entertaining, unpredictable and volatile on the pitch. The development of those crucial ‘competitive edge’ areas was catalysed by the first Melbourne-based game in 1990, and then further grown the likes of ranking kasyn by what is thus far the…

The Irish rugby team is creating history with its performance in the recent past. It has succeeded its hand on the Grand Slam even winning matches in London and Paris- the first time since 1979! The team has come a long way since then and the recent results prove the determination and grith the team…
The Rugby League is one of the two codes of professional rugby, which aims to provide a faster and more entertaining game for the fans.

With 13 games gone in the regular season, things are very tight at the top of the NRL table with just four points separating top side St George Illawarra Dragons and the Brisbane Broncos in eighth place. In terms of qualifying for the next phase, only the Parramatta Eels look to be cut adrift: Brad…

Yeah, I’m back. I find it really tough to ever tip against the Melbourne Storm. They are the best run club in the game, the best coached team, they have an experienced captain that only knows how to win every competition he takes part in, and they replace anyone they lose with the best young…
Melbourne Storm’s domination continued at the start of 2018, with Craig Bellamy’s side breezing their way to the World Club Challenge title and sweeping Leeds Rhinos aside in mid-February. The Rhinos hadn’t had the same success as Melbourne during the 2017 campaign, but still managed to come good at just the right time to defeat…
It’s been a messy campaign to get there, but Australia have nonetheless found a way to the 2018 World Cup in Russia. The next question is this, how will the Socceroos get on out there? After winning the 2015 Asian Cup on home soil, hopes were high heading into World Cup qualifying, but the Socceroos…
There was a lot of debate heading into the World Cup as to what was the point of the competition, with Australia seemingly streets ahead of every other nation, including England and New Zealand, and destined to once again pick up the trophy in a one-sided competition. Of course, the Kangaroos were the eventual champions,…
Many rugby league fans felt that the Castleford Tigers were hard done by in 2017. The club were forced to exclude Zak Hardaker from their Grand Final squad and the Tigers went on to lose to the Leeds Rhinos at Old Trafford. But the 2017 campaign has now been and gone; it is time to…
When Cooper Cronk made it known that he was keen to continue his NRL career in Sydney you would have hoped that every single Sydney based club at the very least held a meeting to discuss bringing him on board. It isn’t often a proven premiership winner, an origin star, and one of the first…
Italian Serie A League teams are turning to betting companies for sponsorship, as the clubs that are not as popular struggle to get and keep the interest of big-name brands. There about 10 online gambling companies that are currently sponsoring Italian Serie A League teams, including TLCbet who sponsors West Brom, 138.com that sponsors Watford…
The 2017 Rugby League World Cup is close to kickoff and I could write a thousand articles about different aspects of the tournament that most people don’t give a damn about. Eligibility rules, qualification criteria, the fact that no one knows where the money goes and who actually controls it….most people simply don’t give a…
The biggest game in Super League, the Super League Grand Final, is quickly approaching and it is shaping up to be an exciting final. Castleford have been in sensational form all season, finishing ten points clear of second placed leads, and finishing with a +391 point difference at the end of the season. To an…
The Newcastle Knights once again finished at the bottom of the ladder for the third year running in the last campaign, taking out the dreaded wooden spoon yet again. However, 2017 saw a lot of positives come out of it and it looks like Nathan Brown is about to see some rewards for the faith…
Without a doubt, Australia are the strongest rugby league nation in the world. The National Rugby League (NRL) is a class above England’s Super League – although the British sides are catching up. The influx of Australians now plying their trade in Super League has helped to develop the game over in England and Wayne…
South Sydney Rabbitohs are Australia’s most successful side, having won more premierships (21) than any other club in the country. However, Michael Maguire’s current crop of players are struggling to find their best and have just completed a miserable 2017 campaign, which has seen them once again fail to rediscover their best. The Sydney-based club…
Melbourne Storm are leading the pack in the 2017 NRL and they look the favourites for silverware later in the year. Craig Bellamy and his side seem to have put last season’s Grand Final defeat to the Cronulla Sharks behind them and are currently holding a two-point lead at the top of the table as…
A sea of England’s finest players have made the move to Australia in recent years, with the likes of Sam Burgess and his brothers excelling in the NRL along with others including Gareth Widdop, James Graham and Elliot Whitehead – to name a few. Whilst there are numerous traditions of the English game – particularly…
Australia have dominated world rugby league throughout the professional era, from the World Club Challenges, through to the international stage, where they have won three of the last four World Cups since 1995. The 15th Rugby League World Cup is just around the corner, with Australia set to host the event alongside New Zealand and…
The 2017 Rugby Super League season got underway back in February and, with 14 matches currently played, it is panning out very differently to the previous season. Reigning champions the Wigan Warriors are mired in mid-table, with just seven wins so far, making them seem unlikely to retain their crown. Of course, some fans like…
AS a Bulldogs fan I know just what it’s like to feel frustrated. Our brand of footy for much of last year and this year has been boring, predictable and down right annoying. Fans have asked for change because of just that – our style. They want to see some fluid attack. They want to…
Will The Canterbury Bulldogs Play Any Differently In 2017? The definition of madness is to do the same thing over and over again and expect a different result. The Bulldogs have promised to change how they play a few times, and nothing has ever come from it. Will they really change this season, or has…
This is an NRL Season Preview like NO other… It is a very light hearted look at the season ahead. So much so…. For every prediction I get right (16 club position predictions, 48 individual team predictions) I will give $10 to my local volunteer fire brigade, and the bigger more out there predictions I…
News that former Newcastle Knights winger James McManus is set to sue the Newcastle Knights over a career ending series of concussions was met very harshly by the NRL community. Straight away, with very little evidence at all being made public, many came to the conclusion that McManus was doing the wrong thing. You also…
The St George/Illawarra Dragons official Twitter feed has begun the process of unblocking supporters of the club, a fantastic move which will be news to the ears of many Dragons fans. This is fantastic news. A couple of weeks ago I wrote and article questioning Why Have The St George/Illawarra Dragons Blocked So Many Of…

A few days ago I wrote an article asking readers Which Sydney Based NRL Club Would You Choose To Relocate and included a poll that allowed readers to have their say. Here are the results of that poll so far: Incredibly, readers chose the Wests Tigers, Sydney Roosters and Cronulla Sharks as their favourite options…
I grew up as a child of the video game era. I’ve always played them, always enjoyed them. I remember when I started to hear about Bungie’s new project called Destiny, the screenshots reminded me an awful lot of Halo, but the concept of an RPG style FPS was intriguing. The previews looked interesting, and…
