The last game at the old Cumberland Oval.
Manly V Parramatta, 1981.
This game had fans on the edge of their seats.

This is getting soapier than The Bold And The Beautiful 🍿
and on it goes..
Wonder who is paying for all of this...
Peter V’landys has launched an extraordinary bid to uncover what critics of his have said about him privately by having a subpoena served on former NSW government minister Brad Hazzard

Good to see NSW dropped the idiotic coffee cup bill.
Now find this gentleman a safe place to live.
At Pass it on we provide clothing, connection and care.
We can’t hand someone a home from our van.
Housing takes political will, investment and urgency.
Where is it?

Dawie shared how, while sleeping rough, he was made to feel forgotten and looked down upon.
Everyone deserves dignity and respect.
If our elected leaders refuse to stand up for those doing it tough, someone has to.
We’ll keep speaking out.

Coffee cups are getting attention.
What about the people sleeping on Macquarie Street, right under the NSW Government’s nose?
Reducing waste matters, but surely humans take priority?
Where’s the urgency for people with nowhere to call home?

Kurt Donoghoe says he is happy to play 6 or 13 for @dolphinsnrl in 2027.
“I like both.”
His MOM for @Fiji_RL v @Kangaroos one of best 6 displays you’ll ever see.
With George Williams signed Kurt admits ball-playing lock likely best for him at Phins.

Amplify Horse Racing is one of the best things happening in our sport. Great curriculum, real classrooms, 10,000+ kids reached in 2026 alone. This can work well beyond Kentucky, nationally and globally. With better funding, I think they can lift our whole industry for good.@AmplifyRacing

300-44 in the Men's. 286-4 in the Women's.
The blowouts this weekend are a terrible look for the Rugby League World Cup, that's for sure.
Even worse, despite the rise of Pacific contenders, the win rate for favourites in Tests is now above 94%.
Don't blame the format, though.
This is hard-wired into RL, and international footy just makes it more obvious.
It's all tactics. Here's why.

If there has ever been an argument that the six again rule is bad for rugby league as a sport, it’s this last weekend of World Cup results.

Brad the comments today are farcical
You slagged that horse big time after that run against #birdman
And your response was he lies a wet track after he won the Turnbull
