TheRev, AyiosYiorgos, W Wild383, won't you join the tipping this year?

Tipping 2025

Hope everyone had a restful off season. Who is joining tipping this year? It's just for a bit of fun but who knows? Maybe someone can organise some small prize in the future. The first year was a bit silly. @jodragon40 went on an astonishing run. It wasn't that everyone else was tipping badly...

To be honest I'm super impressed with Mick as a person, hes come accross very professionally the entire way through this saga with his brother. Still actively participating in a heap of the social media clips etc for the club and has stayed away from any controversial comments etc that im sure some 'journos' wouldve loved from him. If he does want to get a clean start in superleague and to make some good cash while he's at it I wish him all the best cause he's certainly set a good example for the other guys in what would be a very awkward situation.

I always thought he was better on the field than his brother as well.

Great news, should have had this sorted years ago but good to finally have a world class facility to train out of.

Webb on SEN a few weeks back said late 2026 so April as an ETA Is much better

All the delays and redesign was because of one women and a stupid hut

having seen the process developments go through when subject to angry public, it would be a nightmare to manage.. would be like trying to get all the participants of a footy forum to agree on 1 perspective.

But we are underway.. awesome.

For the Pod listeners this one with Chimes is worth it.

What did the interviewer mean in regard to letting the JDB issue take it's course? Let the legal issues take their course and play on? That's obviously what should have happened in a civilised society and fair competition.

Wow thats the Anzac jersey just wow, that is shit and a disgrace, i just read the story, who the hell designed that.

 

[AyiosYiorgos]

It seems . could be wrong but the sponsor is slightly bigger and there is all this empty white space and this little bit on the left, with writing that nobody can read...

 

[TheRev]

I rly dislike the squadron logo... I think its a big part why the jerseys don't look great this year.... I wish they would let us use some sort of variation(s) of it.. its not balanced/centred at all and its not clever or interesting.... it upsets me as a designer lol... I actually thought it was a mistake the first time I saw it...

The Captains run jersey is the best looking I've seen... only cause its a clever concept though.. and they got away with no white space around the logo... and the steelers one is ok cause it blends in atleast....

The Panthers all black and gold jersey was a good example of if you can get your sponsors onboard and bend the rules a bit.. you can make something fans would rly be into... and probably a win-win.

To me this should be the 1 jersey where any sponsor should take a back seat to those we honour for their sacrifice

I know Anzac day with the poppy flower but it's 2 week early. Do they usually roll it out 2 weeks early?

There was the corrupt cop out for a big name scalp but I believe he went to jail for it. Not sure about that but he was definitely fired and is apparently working as a security guard now. But mostly it was the NRL and our useless head office at the time not standing up for the benefit of the club, team, individual members of the team and JDB himself.
