Talk:2006 NRL season

message: At least the Broncos start the season on top of the table. :) --dan, dan and dan 22:05, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

message: Have started a seperate section in the article re: Salary Cap. Developing events which may explode a la Dogs 2002. If the matter turns out to be far less serious, I will merge it into the preseason news section. --Cyclone James 15:18, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

message: I wanted to find out, should this article be merged with 2006 NRL season as they seem to pretty much be the same thing just a bit of different info on each page? Lummie 13:59, 13 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, Ive merged the info from that article here, except the ladder because there already is one here -- Astrokey44|talk 14:26, 13 April 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Merge with 2006 NRL season? 

message: My thinking is that, since the grounds are being linked to already (eg. "Aussie Stadium"), and it is clear on stadium pages which NRL team(s) are tenants of the ground, there is no reason to mark a team as a home team UNLESS:
* The two teams share the ground (eg. Bulldogs vs Souths at Telstra Stadium)
* The ground is a neutral one (eg. Panthers vs Storm in Adelaide)
* The "home" team is taking their "home" game at their opponent's home ground (eg. Dragons vs Roosters at Aussie Stadium)
So, the "home" team for any of these scenarios should be denoted by (H), and an appropriate note below the round.
Might seem superfluous, but worth explaining in detail I thought. Gonzerelli 12:32, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The home team should have been listed first, rather than the winning team. This saves confusion especially for those not familiar with which team plays out of which ground.

replies: text: Cheers Ronan - I also did the same format on the Super 14 page - but others were unhappy (probably NZ'ers or Saffers) about linking match reports from rugby.com.au  IMO I think linking the match reports is one of the best things about the round wrap-up.. so in that regard, I think the NRL format will be even better, and I don't like how people post the ladder after every single round over there. Mike2680 02:29, 23 May 2006 (UTC)

text: ok I think future seasons can be updated using this system, perhaps you would like to volunteer to change rounds 1-8 to the new table? --Astrokey44 11:36, 9 May 2006 (UTC)

text: Looks good, I like how the teams are opposite their scores and how the byes are in the table. I will add it to the article. Maybe you would like to make one for round 10 as we will be missing a week? By the way why were there 3 byes in one week? --Astrokey44 06:22, 23 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I'll gradually update the rest of the weeks as long as everyone's happy with the layout. I just think it'd look more professional if all the NRL pages use a similar format of tables and infoboxes. Twice in the 26 rounds of the NRL do we see 3 byes in a week. This is because of the structure of the competition with everybody getting 2 byes each (30 in all). These two weeks usually occur in the weeks before Origin I and Origin III. --mdmanser 06:47, 23 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: sure, but at the moment it would be better to keep it up to date and not worry about the changing the past tables. Maybe it could even be simpler, 2006 AFL season uses a simpler table and theirs is updated fairly regularly  --Astrokey44 13:21, 7 June 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Home team

message: The article for each year features a large template on the right of the screen. This includes a sport section with a link to Australian Rules Football - this year it links to 2006 AFL season.
If AFL is there - I'm a bit suprised to see there is no link NRL? Or is this because Rugby League is a bit more international - maybe between each of the Rugby League projects you could set up a disambiguation page for each year, pointing to each country's major competition pages?

thread_title:  [[2006]] etc 

message: As it maybe have been noticed, I have inserted pink background into those teams who can no longer make the 2006 Final Series. At the completion of the 26 competition rounds, this will be reverted, with the green simply indicating the qualifying top eight teams. I'm basically using the pink as an "on the move" indicator for the next two weeks before the finals. I will endeavour to keep the final series based on the same format as 2005's page. Over the coming weeks I will also add pointscorer and tryscorer feats. Timmah86 01:46, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I have reverted the ladder - as a matter of consistency with every season at the least. Also, it is important to indicate which position each side is. Timmah86 03:43, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: For consistency, I put that ladder in. You may not have noticed, but I'm currently in the process of doing every season since 1908 and this I think is the best way of doing it. The numbers are basically trivial - the top 8 is clearly in green for everyone to see, and this is practically the critical point of such a system. Discussions will be done in the future to decide on minor changes like this, but for the time being, let it be. (Apologies for my edit summary, I naturally assumed such a revert was done without an explanation here). --mdmanser 06:09, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: No worries mate, just was looking back at 2005 only. If that's going to be the standardised format I'm all for it. As long as for the remaining rounds you're happy to keep the non-qualifying teams in red until the top eight is final, that's fine. Although not sure what "put 30-0 back in" meant... did someone delete the result? Timmah86 06:59, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I accidentally reverted 2 edits back, and only realised that I'd actually reverted something else though, so I put that back in. Also, I'm not saying we'll get rid of the ladder numbering positions - this could and will be discussed over time. My only concern is consistency at the moment, and I think that is what our priority should be. The earlier seasons did not require numbers because there were only eight teams and it was easy to see where each team came on the ladder. I do, however, find the compressed ladder a little better on the eye. --mdmanser 07:12, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

message: I'd like the Grand Final section (on this and all NRL season's pages) to mention who performed at the Grand Final.  I don't know who it was, but usually it's someone pretty famous, so deserves a mention.--Jeff79 20:50, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
