It looks like the Canterbury Bankstown Bulldogs (W) club has been listed under the wrong competition category group.

Last post by Max Turner - 07 January, 2025, 09:09:17 PM- Johnny Brown (South Sydney/Balmain), born 16 May 1915 in Wollongong NSW, died 29 November 1973. Full name Matthew John Brown

Last post by Max Turner - 07 January, 2025, 08:55:09 PMI noticed with the NRL.com article that Ron Taylor's death was listed as 5 January 2024, but this was the date that his death seems to have been announced by South Sydney. He actually died on 29 December 2023: South Sydney Rabbitohs, Sydney Roosters, Sydney Morning Herald.
The reporting of Keith Barnes' death date is a bit unclear. Lots of the news articles about his death are vague on when he died, while some have reported the date as 8 April 2024 (which was the date of the announcement). The Daily Telegraph, however, were specific in saying he "died on Sunday night," referring to 7 April 2024.

Last post by GregRLP - 05 January, 2025, 12:46:26 PMI agree there are often variations in different publications when referring to scrum & penalty counts you never know what is correct but as long as you get an indication as to which side was won the count close enough is probably good enough.
For this game Big League and the Yearbook both have the scrum count as 7-3 so I'm happy to stick to that.

Last post by Paul Carter - 05 January, 2025, 09:12:27 AMIn regards to this game. I actually watched the whole game on YouTube yesterday. Which was uploaded by Coop's Footy Vids under the title May 5, 2024.
-I took a tally on the Scrums. Because I noticed how the Scrums in the Rugby League 2000 Yearbook differed to what was listed at Rugby League Project. It was listed as 7-3 Newcastle's way.
-From taking a count. I found that the Number of Scrums that Sydney City were listed as Winning at Rugby League Project. To be correct. Yet found that the Number of Scrums Newcastle Won in this game. Different to what was listed at Rugby League Project and the Rugby League 2000 Yearbook.
-Personally I have my doubts. As to whether a lot of Scrums and Penalties for most games are correct. Going back to 1908.

Last post by GregRLP - 05 January, 2025, 01:40:05 AMThanks Paul, scrums were actually 7 - 3 in favour of Newcastle.
Note that alot of the scrum & penalty counts from the late 90's are wrong they were downloaded from the AFLtables website in the early days of RLP and they are mostly wrong I am aware of the errors in the scrums & penalties during those years and it's on my to do list.
