How can Hornby beat Norm Provan's record when Norm Provan played for St George Dragons, not St George Illawarra Dragons?

This talk is as ridiculous as someone saying Our club has not played in the competiiton for over 100 years in a row Due to name changes Eastern Suburbs Sydney City now Sydney

All we did was change our name, St George Illawarra was formed when two clubs merged together, forming a new club.

We are not a merged entity with anyone.

St George Illawarra is a new club formed with the merging of 2 old ones.

Shaun Timmins for example, played for Illawarra. He then played for St George Illawarra. If we are to assume that by playing for St George Illawarra is the same as playing for St George, then what do we do with the games that Illawarra and St George played against each other? Do we cound them twice? Were these players all playing with themselves?

How about the tigers? In 1948 did they play themselves in the grand final, beating themselves 8-4 and collecting both the premiers and runners up silverware?

Hornby? - that's like Paul Newman winning an Oscar for 'The Color Of Money' - he was much better in 'The Hustler' as well a as host of other films. And I very much doubt Hornby will have this game on his highlight reel. Nothing but a popularity contest because this was his last chance. And you're spot on Greedy, it shouldn't matter who wins the game.

Just like Denzel Washington winning for Training Day.

I think Mitchell Pearce should have got MoM. 3 try-assists. Good kicking game

[Guest]

Was that dropped ball to Anasta counted as a try-assist ?

[Guest]

The only try-assist of note was when Pearce scored the try for himself.

Everything else was luck through bombs.

He did have a good game otherwise.

Wests Tigers captain Robbie Farah was the official man of the match in last Sunday's City-Country clash but the award wasn't made public as Channel Nine immediately switched from the game to their evening news bulletin at full-time. Farah was chosen as the best player on the field by respective City and Country chairmen Geoff Gerard and Jock Colley but whether it helps his Origin prospects remains to be seen as rival hooker Ryan Hinchcliffe was man of the match in the corresponding game last year and missed NSW selection.


LOL, that's 2 games in 4 days I could've sworn Pearce was MOTM and it was awarded to others. Fark me even Rusty would've given Pearce the gong I bet. Bizzaro.
