• Cowboys vs Rabbitohs: A lesson in teamship, consistency and passion

  

  Last night’s match between the Cowboys and the Rabbitohs was always going to be emotional. On the one hand, the Bunnies needed to find a way to put last week’s defeat to the Roosters well and truly behind them. On the other hand, the Cowboys were facing up against the previous premiers for the first time since winning the Grand Final themselves. While it’s all very well to square off against the runners-up, there’s a different kind of intensity to taking on the previous winners. Add to that ho..

• Sydney stadium restructure, team-by-team analysis: Brisbane Broncos

  

  Venues can make or break your experience of a game. A Tigers win at Campbelltown is much more breathtaking than a Tigers win at Allianz.

Over the next couple of weeks, I’m planning to outline how each team in the competition is going to ..
