This is one is for the ladies (well even some men) Now this is a tribute to some of the lookers of the NRL that have graced the fields with their buff bodies and tough guy looks. Now before you roll your eyes, yes I love my rugby league! I have since I was 6…
Beau Ryan has announced his immediate retirement from Rugby League due to a neck injury. Ryan has been trying to play through the injury for a long while now but this season in particular it has become clear that any time he received contact in a tackle the injury was troubling him. Ryan had a…
The Jamie Soward vs Beau Ryan non event that sent Twitter into a downward spiral got a huge reaction. It was interesting to see how people lined up…and got me thinking. Which side have most people taken in this discussion? Questions like this normally prompt me to make a poll on my web site, so…
If you are one of the people that manages to watch what The Footy Show consists of these days you will know that this year Beau Ryan takes the piss out of Jamie Soward with a segment called “Jamie Soward TV”. Basically it is flogging an old joke. Beau Ryan dresses up like Jamie Soward…
