2022 NRL General discussion

Accused until proven guilty

Guilty until media don’t want to run the story anymore (possibly because you were innocent), then you’re just whatever impression they left the public with (usually still guilty)

Or the big exclusive with a particular NRL journo about how he was wrongfully accused and how that's affected him.

Guilty until proven innocent?

If you're someone who'll generate clicks, pretty much.

Reckons he was "just over it". Couldn't have had anything to do with getting zero interest from anyone.

Nobody being interested seems like it would get quite tiresome

You can tell Joey has just spent his whole life talking dribble and being big enough and dumb enough not enough people have stood up to him.

Be great if Heighno can lay him out... unfortunately Joey might be big enough and dumb enough to win it.

I assume Gallen will weather anything Lussick can dish out without much issue although a stoppage would be good, especially given the high profile fights Gal had before this one.

How's when the advertising fell too

Spent all their money on a $20k knock out bonus not the good blu tack
Ross almost threw a punch at it

Similar to Gal Heighno can probably win if he survives early onslaught. Got 300+ NRL games so knows how to get the body fighting fit

 

[egg]

Yeah , I expect BOTH Sharks to win .
Both treat it with respect and not cut corners

Nah Heino will win imo, way fitter. Gal came out and said he goes alright too.

I def think he can win, I think a knock out is more likely to come from Joey though.
In saying that I could also see Joey running out of gas and getting pummelled, or leaving himself open for a big shot.

Rumours that Latrell has done his ACL at training and is gone for the season.
