@Thebadge72 You’re a good man Badge!

[Simon @Simonm142]

@buangboy @RugbyLeagueNews Agree 100%

@lfc4244 @adam10stafford @FOXNRL I have to disagree here. They actually start their off field career well behind the 8-ball. You’re looking at the fraction of a % with a good earning capacity, but you completely miss the vast majority of players.

[Simon @Simonm142]

@Thebadge72 @IMAROOSTAR You’re a legend Badge. Appreciate the insight!

[Simon @Simonm142]

I would love @Thebadge72 to be to refereeing calls what @nrlphysio is to reviewing injury footage.

It would be great to be able to tag @Thebadge72 on someone’s screenshot and have him swoop in and give the correct interpretation.

[Gavin Badger @Thebadge72]

@9_Moley Come on mate, you can’t use a screenshot that is after when the ball has cleared the ruck to try and create controversy. This is why people are off rugby league journalists. How about reporting on what a great game it was.

[Simon @Simonm142]

@JoshKingiii1 @AAPSport @Kangaroos @JoelGould6 Agree - the NRL needs to reward this tackling technique by allowing for a slower play the ball

[Simon @Simonm142]

@MrBlairHughes @Mojo_cornick What are the parking costs mate?

[Simon @Simonm142]

@Itch3scrot @RLPlayers Sure, but if every player goes and lays bricks we have no rugby league to watch? Without the players, there’s no NRL.

[Simon @Simonm142]

@BecharaRob @WestsTigers This is exactly the kind of management that doesn’t work. You put him on that kind of contract at a club like the Tigers and the “he’s not living up to his contract” comments start coming up, he loses confidence and we end up in the same cycle.

To give the public and industry more certainty, we have provided answers to some FAQs below.

We believe the answers to these questions should also be – why are the NRL doing this to players?https://t.co/kJkE4pQIYU

@MCPC141 @tweeterblues @hollis_k_ @BuzzRothfield You are aware that he didn’t play against the cowboys right? Nor any other game since he signed with manly so your point is somewhat redundant.

[Simon @Simonm142]

@armchairspeaks @clarky_82 This ☝🏽 This is the take that people need to have!

[Simon @Simonm142]

@MCPC141 @tweeterblues @hollis_k_ @BuzzRothfield You wanted him to play better against the Cowboys?

[Simon @Simonm142]

@wallyscr @ScottBaileyAAP @shaggy84329 Thanks! 👏🏽🙌🏽

[Simon @Simonm142]

@ScottBaileyAAP @shaggy84329 @wallyscr I reckon it could be a first. Two teams making each other ineligible to win a premiership in the same season.

[Simon @Simonm142]

@NBWT__ So the first 6 years of his career was trending in the right direction, regardless of numerous halves partners, numerous coaching changes and a centre betting on opposition players.

I think everyone takes the last 4 years and says that’s what the last 10 years was like.

2/2

[Simon @Simonm142]

@NBWT__ I’m not quite sure how you can say this when:

2014 (debut year): Rookie of the year - 6 T 12 TA (21 games)
2015: 10T 17TA (23 games)
2016: 5T 16TA (21 games)
2017: 4T 9TA (19 games)
2018: 5T 11TA (23 games)
2019: 4T 22TA (23 games)

Then Madge.
