NRL: In wild scenes Newcastle's Jack Hetherington has had an physical altercation with Bulldogs star Reed Mahoney following their sin-binning.
The Raiders’ season is hinging on an injury to Jamal Fogarty with no obvious replacement for their star halfback.
The incident between Hetherington and Mahoney came in the dressing sheds during the Bulldogs’ 36-12 win over the Knights. “The referee was going to leave them on the field. He then opted to send them for 10 in the bin and then we see the footage.“It is hard to see whether Hetherington is joking. He has got a smile on his face, but well and truly pushes Reed.
“I like the mindset he had going into this game because everyone was telling him to run,” Cronk said. “He had two or three errors to start this contest and then forgot about it and went on with it,” Cronk said. “If this requires surgery, that is their gun halfback, the conductor of all their attack, their main kicker, that will be out for an extended period of time,” Cronk said.
“It’s going to be interesting to see who replaces Jamal because he is one of the leaders and their voice,” Meninga said.If the Roosters want to compete for a premiership, Joey Manu needs to be involved for 80 minutes every game. “In the first half, Manu was hardly sighted and there’s no doubt he went in at halftime and Robbo has said ‘you have to get into the game’,” Matty Johns said.So it begs the question. How can the Roosters get the best out of Manu?
It remains to be seen how Trent Robinson will get the best out of both his stars, but the pair need to fire to inspire a Roosters title charge.Ex-Bulldog’s contract statement amid sin bin dramaThe Dragons have won two in a row and three of their past four games, and despite all of the talk pre-season suggesting they will struggle again in 2024, their captain thinks they have the side to reach the top eight.
With the way this side is playing under new coach Shane Flanagan, it’s not hard to see why the Dragons captain has had a change of heart, after being hellbent on wanting an early release from his contract last year. After all, the casualty ward already consists of Herbie Farnworth, Tom Flegler, Felise Kaufusi and Tom Gilbert.
The Dolphins, while in the middle of a bit of an injury crisis, were given permission to dig deep beyond their Top 30 to pluck Fuller from reserve grade and thrust him into the No.1 jersey for his very first NRL start.The 27-year-old has had to patiently wait for this opportunity and made the most of every second, finishing with a try, a try assist, five tackle busts and 148 running metres as well as several try-saving plays.
Assistant coach Kristian Woolf, who stepped up while Wayne Bennett was at home sick, was thrilled to see Fuller shine in the NRL. When asked if Fuller is too good for Queensland Cup, Woolf said: “If he keeps going the way did he tonight it’s something we’re going to have to look at.”Under fire Eels coach Brad Arthur delivered a press conference spray for the ages towards his playing group, who he called a ‘part-time’ footy team as well as accusing them of ‘giving up’.
“Just looking at the next few weeks. They’ve got the Sea Eagles, the bye and then they have the Broncos and Storm,” Sampson said. “For Brad to come public with this, you might look at it as an emotional response but he’s doing that to give a message. He has to be.“He put it on them. How are we going to fix this? Well it’s on the players. They are the ones that have to turn it around.”Alexander said he expects the Eels to react to Arthur’s blast it in a positive manner and turn it into results on the field.
“There will be a response. It was only two weeks ago where he would have ripped holes in them after the Canberra game. They were terrible. Therefore, the must in-form option as it stands is Nicho Hynes, who was excellent against the Cowboys on Sunday afternoon. He also explained how experiencing adversity can only set you up to develop as a player, and the former Dally M Medallist is proving his point.
“We’re certainly getting closer. It’s not like we played bad footy tonight,” Kieran Foran said post-game on Fox League.
