Which nat is the most likely to Gaurav Sharma?

[ᴀɴᴅʀᴇw вıԍԍs @biggsintweets]

with National having no list seats and a threadbare majority is they’re gonna need to be extraordinarily disciplined to avoid one of their MPs quitting, retiring or getting fired ‘cause each one will be a by-election…

@antonposa He could really riff while making some solid observations about league. Really loved the ACC wahs commentary and was guttered when they stopped doing it.

[Ben Deeble @bendeeble]

@antonposa I was sure that the tier system was meant to be based on finances and resources more than on field.

@LeagueFreak The aussies are good but f*ck me they don't need this much help.

[Matt Timokos dont argue @handofyes]

#rlwc Samoa getting nothing from the ref. Nothing. Still, gotta defend better

[League Freak @LeagueFreak]

This is disgusting refereeing at this point.

Another terrible decision against Samoa.

#RugbyLeague #NRL

[Ben Deeble @bendeeble]

Haven't been impressive with Gee at all. Samoa haven't help themselves but there's a fair few soft calls for aus and missed calls for Samoa

[Ben Deeble @bendeeble]

Jazz lateral movement an issue on both tries so far

[Ben Deeble @bendeeble]

@Discomclennan @johnnyddavidson Sure, but thats really more about soft power politics as much as development of league domestically. The impact of the economy in those countries will still dwarf the impact of isolated funding to rugby league.

[Ben Deeble @bendeeble]

@Discomclennan @johnnyddavidson The pacific is always likely to be built around migrant populations in aus and nz. I dont think thats a bad thing. I dont really think the bigger island nations need the great grandparent rule though, but cooks certainly likely to need it more and more

[Ben Deeble @bendeeble]

@Discomclennan @johnnyddavidson Do you really thing domestic development is possible in places as small as the cooks or with a national economy like tonga though?
Im not trying to disparage those countries, just not sure its realistic to expect them to have economy to support competitive domestic development.

Justice for Nathan Fein

[The League Scene @LeagueScenePod]

The IRL has passed a major eligibility change.

Players will now be eligible to represent the country of birth of their great-grandparents, which had previously been capped at grandparents.

The decision may not make an impact immediately, but it ensures nations like Samoa and Tonga will continue to be able to draw from large pools of talent into the future.

@LeagueScenePod Woooooops some poor assumptions from me

[Ben Deeble @bendeeble]

@LeagueScenePod What, nz play tonga, and didn't make the last wc final samoa and aus played it

[Michael Luo @AzianMike]

We must build more donut centers

[Ben Deeble @bendeeble]

We have so many backrowers! Whats doing?

[The League Scene @LeagueScenePod]

Souths backrower Tom Fletcher has secured an early release from his contract at the Rabbitohs to link up with the Warriors.

It’s reported the backrower is set to put pen to paper on a three-year deal.

@Amarillo1942237 @antonposa Who's in?

Toia out, loading cash on McLean ats

Our electoral processes need to be beyond reproach. This is completely and utterly unacceptable.
