@newmrpford @alastair_hewitt Maybe the “hotel bills” were quite modest because the obscene cost of flights included an accommodation package.

@alastair_hewitt I know! I don’t begrudge them going business class but curious why it’s so incredibly expensive. Oddly their hotel bills were quite modest.
English
I know what airfares cost. There is no way 3 flights to New York could/should have cost $94,000. Even if they’d flown first class instead of business. Crazy.
Anthony Khallouf@ausvstheagenda
Communications Minister Anika Wells is brushing off criticism over spending more than $94,000 on flights to the United Nations to discuss the upcoming social media ban, insisting they weren’t first-class and that she will continue to be transparent.

Dean Ritchie has written or commented on Nathan Cleary leaving the NRL for other opportunities at least 100 times
Why does this guy want Nathan out of the @NRL so much?
English
Listening to Aussie journos following the Kangaroos around London, and all the whinging they are doing about travel. Hilarious stuff.

Tui! Such a compelling lie too. Should sell cars when his career is over.

@Tanswell87 In January 2025 a mate and I were picking our Australia team for the end of season Tests. I had Shibasaki at left centre.
Actually, come to think of it I had Latrell Mitchell, as Shibasaki was on a train and trial deal at the time.
English
If there is any one person alive who could tell me they said in January of 2025 Shiba would make his debut for qld win an origin series then score 2 try’s whilst winning the GF. Stop fucking lying no you didn’t none of us seen this coming.
NRL@NRL
WEAPON 💥 An outstanding game from Gehamat Shibasaki!
English
@BroncosRebuild Good summary 🙌…... and if a person told you at Brookvale in June, that we’ll beat the Storm in a GF - after trailing by 10 at half time - with both starting halves off the field for last 10 minutes - that person wouldn’t be out in the general population.
English
This premiership run was insane
Starting halves injured in same play? ✅
5 game streak to make top 4? ✅
Beat minor premiers away down 16 with 15 to play? ✅
Beat the four time defending premiers from 14 down? ✅
Beat the vaunted Melbourne Storm down 10 at halftime? ✅
Insanity

@zanofc @brisbanebroncos Wow that 99 matches stat is so extraordinary - thanks for sharing 👍
English
What a win @brisbanebroncos!
Incredible win 16-14 in front of a packed Lang Park.
First time in 99 matches since 2000 that the @PenrithPanthers gave up a 12-point lead at lost!
Now Qld has representative in all 3 GF’s next week!
English
@SnoogThe The whole panthers leadership group just seem like amazing human beings. Big reason you’ve had the sustained success, which will continue.
English
You could be the guy who demands you give him respect for achievements he’s never achieved
Or, you could be like Nathan Cleary, achieve more than nearly everyone in the game and still be a champion off the field
I know which halfback I want running my team
Zane Bojack@zanofc
What a man! If ever there was a time to just sit in the dressing room and sulk it would be now.. With the end of an era.. Not Cleary! He’s taking selfies with @brisbanebroncos fans! That’s class! #NRLFinals
English
@BroncosRebuild Amazing. Madge has got those outside back selections spot on which has got us to a GF 🙌
English
Mariner got the ball and had two Kangaroos and one of the greatest wingers of all time in front of him, tucked the ball and steamed over. Holy shit man
English
@JoelGould6 @brisbanebroncos Gotta roll the dice with Mam at 6 in my opinion. Special ability to break open games. Ben Hunt with a simplified role in a big game suits him to a tee - hence all the Origin and Tests in that role.
English
Broncos training news
Ezra Mam mind games begin in earnest as he slots in & out of @brisbanebroncos team drills and opposed session.
Adam Reynolds 👀 good
It’s clear Ben Hunt is indispensable man. He started opposed session at 6. His versatility key.

@Katzo60 @sydneyroosters The path to a preliminary final may well be via a Sunday afternoon blockbuster at Suncorp.
English
It might be worth noting that two @sydneyroosters players (Mark Nawaqanitawase and Daniel Tupou) have scored 19 or more tries so far in 2025.
In every previous season that at least one Roosters player have hit this mark the team has, at a minimum, reached the preliminary final.
English
@BigOtrivia Kevin Walters has won 6 more premierships than you mate. He has an idea.
English
If Kevin Walters dosent select Mark Nawaqanitawase on the Kangaroos tour, he has no idea.
He is a special player.
English
@Katzo60 @sydneyroosters @storm @brisbanebroncos @PenrithPanthers Unfortunately they’ve also lost at home to those same 3 teams this season, and conceded 124 points in the process.
English
Although the @sydneyroosters do not play the @storm , the @brisbanebroncos or the @PenrithPanthers away from home each season, I can confirm that 2025 is the first time they have beaten all three away in the same season.
In those three away games the Roosters scored 104 points.
English
@Katzo60 @sydneyroosters All of them have been amazing. I’ve been blown away by Savala. No doubt you saw him coming through, but when I first noticed him hanging around the team on the field after full time on tv I assumed he’d be an edge forward who might get a run off the bench in the next year or so.
English
Just a reminder:
Before this season Robert Toia, Mark Nawaqanitawase, Hugo Savala, Blake Steep, Salesi Foketi and Beniah Ioelu had played a total of 4 NRL games between them.
In 2025 these six @sydneyroosters rookies have played 109 first grade games.

@antonposa Imagine reading that post if you’d never heard of supercoach 😇

@Gigabyte_55 I don’t discriminate. I dislike all 16 of you. Some more than others

I think the Bulldog wins by 30 tonight
I’m all for it

@PinguCapital @DainVenning What demographic in Australia do you honestly think would sell their house, go and rent somewhere and invest the house sale proceeds in something else?
English
Sydney’s price-to-rent ratio is approximately 30.
Sydney’s rental yield is around 1.95%.
Both these models of fair value show that Sydney property prices are currently≈100% overvalued.
This would indicate a hat Sydney property prices will decline 50%.
The Glass Pyramid@pfh007
@PinguCapital Fortunately fair value is linked to Sydney house prices. As Sydney prices rise fair value instantly increases. That relationship you can take to the bank to support your loan application. 👨🔧

@BuzzRothfield Are the Sharks in crisis Buzz? They’ve won a single game more than the hapless Broncos, and look tired and flat - almost like they trained hard in the off season.
English
@antonposa What a night for you mate, you’ll never forget it. Onya 👍
English
My son has never seen the Warriors lose live. My lucky charm. Might have to take him to magic round.
Anton Posa@antonposa
His first NRL game. Big moment for both of us! Let's gooooooooo
English
@JoelGould6 @GCTitans @dolphinsnrl Great story. His left touchline kick for goal is the most enjoyable kick to watch in the game in my opinion.

Dolphins redemption news:
Reboot of Superboot.
Jamayne Isaako thought his career was done in 2022 after @GCTitans stint. Enter the @dolphinsnrl
Isaako eyes extension as he prepares for 61st Phins game in a row.
One of NRL’s great comebacks. 👇
