2019 Official NRL Thread (Spoilers/Rumours/Game Results/Discussions etc.)

[The Mad Hatter]

It's all rather intriguing.

 

[FootyFan1]

From a neutral perspective... haha

 

[saintsforever]

When I saw the headline on NRL webiste, I literally felt sick almost fell out of my chair!

must have been a junior's chair.

 

[FootyFan1]

Haha fair call I did say headline though once I read article wasn't as convinced

 

[Jaede]

It's wrong that players and Coaches can be approached by other clubs whilst still under contract. I can't see Tigers letting Ivan out of his two year contract, I hope Nathan leaves the Panthers now and goes to Tigers, would love to see Gould's face then.

 

[Sharks16]

Hence...'rumour'. LOL.

Didn’t you also hear a rumour the other week he was going to the broncos with Nathan lol

 

[The Mad Hatter]

I can see Cleary now that Hook is gone.

I can see all obstacles in my way.

Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind.

It's gonna be a bright bright West Sydney day.

No surprise here- https://www.nrl.com/news/2018/08/08/billy-slater-set-to-announce-retirement-from-rugby-league/
goodluck to him on his future endeavours

 

[The Mad Hatter]

And just like that, one of the most scintillating footballers to have ever graced a footy field is retiring.

Bravo Billy Slater. From the first time I saw him on The Footy Show back in 2003 to now...he has been an absolute star.

What a blessed generation of footballers we have seen retire this year and Traders Retirement cards in 2019 are going to be a set to remember.

yeah some massive names to retire at seasons end, kind of depressing seeing them all go.

Johhny Nash or Hothouse Flowers?

 

[The Mad Hatter]

Either


Jason Nightengale has announced his retirement too. Classy winger in his day and from all reports a lovely bloke and a great club man.

NZ rep, premiership winner. 250+ games. 100+ tries. Goes out ticking all the boxes.
