As Wayne Bennett once said - the human body is not designed to play rugby league. The game is too fast, the players train far too much. And the players are too big now - even wingers are 100kgs. The body can’t handle that pressure without breaking at some point.

[@GiantSlayer512]

The 'six again" rule cannot be helping stress on players bodies imo

[@wilfredoUbatuba]

best footy show out there. Whish there was more

[@Roonoon2]

Luke Keary tried to snap Shaun Johnson's arm off!

[@mikeholling8830]

Yeah and the Warriors didn’t even get a penalty, the refereeing is just a bloody bad joke.

[@sbat5552]

Split the game into 20 min quarters. Give the players a break and allow them to come back fresher than slogging it out for 40 straight

[@BrettGrady-vf4kx]

Will only make it faster and more injuries as Bennett says.

[@MRTonyt8868]

The reason I believe is that it is preseason training

[@MRTonyt8868]

Today much fittnes training and not enough rest recovery

GOOD NEWS 🗞️ HOPEFULLY IT'S CAREER ENDING INJURY 🤕

[@tane4969]

You must have a sad life

[@westsidejatt]

The good news is that your fucking Raiders won't win 3 in a row anytime soon 😂😂

[@Jimmyjim4]

These guys have different sized ears

[@jono_jpg]

I think Cronk throwing speculative nonsense out there is pretty fucking irresponsible considering Cleary has 3 back to back rings. Of course he'd push through for Origin if he was capable.

[@gdconflik1665]

Hes saying its choice being made by the club, not cleary himself

[@troynewman8103]

I think thr joke is with drsgons.now they bought dolid players not stsrs.origin rounds will their benefit.all doubters will see that will get them there.the ecperts are so wrong.

[@freedomofchoicelover3734]

This conversation just proves nathan Cleary is replaceable and not that great, predictable and robotic, in addition he goes missing for most games for the majority of it, he can do that because others around him are doing the same job.

[@CuzznJed]

Hahah whatta jokester obviously never had a game in your life it's obvious if others are playing good around you your going to play better ahah so cronk is robotic trash player to because he had good players around him ahahha Nathan the best halfback in the game right now by far and cronk was the best when he was playing no doubt ahah idiot mate

[@timesand223]

2023 grand final disproves everything you've just said :)

[@Asher104]

What a naive viewpoint

[@doogi30]

@freedomofchoicelover3734 wow who wouldve thought that a player cant influence the full 80 minutes of a game, what a profound thought

[@rodwellchigome7567]

What a foolish comment. Man is going for 4peat, you realize the longevity required to even fathom that. If Penrith get to 5 GFs in a row, nothing you say will ever diminish that. Sharks beat Storm with no Hynes. That means Hynes is just as rubbish as Cleary according to you.
