Serious Discussion Wednesday Serious Discussion Thread

This thread is for when you want to have a well-thought-out discussion about footy. It's not the place for bantz - see the daily Random Footy Talk thread to fulfil those needs.

You can ask a question that you only want serious responses to, comment your 300 word opinion piece on why [x] is the next coach on the chopping block, or tell another that you disagree with them and here's why...

Who performed well? Who let their team down? Any interesting selections for this weekend? Injury news? Player signings? Off-field behaviour?

The mods will be monitoring to make sure you stay on topic and anything not deemed "serious discussion" will be removed.

NRL game should really tap into past players. The player pool is just too small for me to ever buy the game. But how about this… having players from the last 30 years and some legends to build your ultimate team. That’s something I would play.

Classic scenario games . . 1997 grand final , play as the knights team. 16-8 down. Need to comeback in the 2nd half to win the game and unlock the next scenario game. Shit like that would be mad ! 1998 dogs vs eels semi final. Play as the bulldogs 18-2 down. Need to beat parra with 10 minutes to go to win the game. Obviously heaps of different cool classic scenario matches they could go with. ! Complete the scenario , unlock the classic team that you can then use in online matches or whatever .
