Money doesn’t talk. It screams. From the top of a building through a Metallica sized sound system.    It drowns out everything, and invariably, filthy lucre comes out on top because people are greedy.   Everyone has their price and through relentless bludgeoning with a currency cosh, even the most principled of individuals will be reduced to a pummelled blob.    LIV Golf, through their oil sodden...

Has the NRL, upon its return to the Queen City, overtaken union as the fan-favourite winter sport? I’d have to say yes.   There are multitudes of reasons for the acceleration in love for the 13-man code. Some pro league, some anti rugby.  Reasons around venues, competition quality, player availability, paucity, and dare I say, out and out passion.    On the face of it, Warriors home games just loo...

Island of Origin?    Why the hell not, right?    Tonight, the rugby league world focuses on the biggest event in the game. Sure, the Grand Final is something, but the State of Origin is the superstar of rugby league. It has the history, the energy, the rivalry. It is distinctly Australian.   Brash, aggressive, loud. Ned Kelly in blue and maroon. Ford v Holden in the flesh. It personifies the Austr...

It’s flawed, isn’t it?    The Super Rugby Pacific finals playoff system is simple I’ll give you that, but it doesn’t do justice to the dominant teams.   It keeps energy in the comp right up until the regular season ends, which is wonderful. The drama of Fakatava’s last minute baton-handing try to whip victory from under the noses of the Reds last weekend was tremendous. There is a pulse in Super R...
