Just a day after the Herald published data showing blow-outs were on the wane, the average margin of victory across the round ballooned to a staggering 32.25 | SMHsport

Caretaker Wests Tigers coach Brett Kimmorley was headed to North Sydney Oval in search of players on Sunday.

data showed blow-outs in 2022 had become rarer than ever since the introduction of the six-again rule. Kimmorley wondered in his SCG press conference on Saturday night “whether some people have tapped out and are going somewhere else next year?” “When you’re at the bottom of the ladder, you’re not fine-tuning, you’re not motivated by that same mindset. There’s always going to be a massive difference of how they’re feeling and their motivation.

But with David Nofoaluma on loan to play finals football at the Storm, Luciano Leilua released early to do the same at North Queensland and Oliver Gildart turning out for the Roosters on Saturday, Kimmorley can count 10 top 25 players off the top of his that aren’t available through injury and roster moves.

'Needlessly complex': report calls for overhaul of Australia's skilled migration programWith skilled migration at a fraction of pre-pandemic levels, Deloitte Access Economics says Australia needs to show it's 'open for business' by cutting red tape. How about starting to report the 'skilled' professions that we need to import. This could and will help direct new students within Australia into those professions. Only if the new system ensures that any skilled migrants are (a) genuinely needed to fill real skill gaps & (b) are required to be given the exact same wages and conditions as an Australian-born worker doing that same job. Immigation is one thing, protecting them from racial discrimination is another.
