He's had it shorn for about 4 weeks now. Less wind resistance!

Mind you, didn't help him today. Good win for Cronulla.

4 weeks jeez. Maybe if they didn't keep showing the Tigers and Manly games over here in Perth

I'm wondering when they decide the dates of the games in rounds. I thought all the Friday night games would be decided before the season started but I've notice in the last few years that the shock teams which are doing well get it. Like Manly last night and Penrith a couple of years ago, both teams were right near the bottom of the table one year and then they get Friday night airtime the next year. So I may have gone on with this point a bit too long but when does the actual dates get decided?

Just watching The Cowboys v The Roosters. Matty Sing is playing so well, has made two tries. Came off his wing to deliver a great pass for Paul Bowman to touch down in the other corner & then a magic mid-air knock back from a kick for Hannay to score.

Hannay's hit the post three times in a row; if The Roosters win by less than six that's gonna be a sickener. Oh, Bowman gets his brace as I type. 20-6 to The Cowboys.

Damn it, Roosters lose again. Congrats to the Cowboys though, they're a good, entertaining side.

[Simon]

Right...

theyve had this coming to them for years, they are arrogant morons, people like Gould, Stuart and Finch deserve no respect. they think they are invincible and now they are going backwards, the comp is always at its best when the roosters are struggling, they are the scum of the NRL...

Seriously, you may not like the roosters, but aren't you going a bit too far?

a great of the game?
ricky Stuart was a great player, but as a coach hes nothing but a whinging git...

 

[Waughney]

He's not afraid to let his opinion be heard.

 

[Simon]

He's not afraid to let his opinion be heard.

so he can give his opinion on anything? including the ref and avoid a 10k fine, while other coaches cant...
for the last 10 years its been one set of rules for the roosters and one set of rules for everyone else, its about time that changed...

 

[Waughney]

I guess that's true, but that doesn't make them the scum of the nrl if a couple of the administrators can squeeze him out of a tight situation.

it's undoubtedly true though is it not? It's the same as any number of people down this way loving to see the Broncos lose no matter who they're playing.

Channel 9 give the NRL 5 weeks notice of which games they want on Friday night and on Sunday and Fox Sports tell them which match they want as their main game on Saturday nights and Sundays and the NRL schedules accordingly.

 

[Mister Wright]

So how can they be classed as the best players?

Because he's wrong for starters, the Broncos haven't missed a finals series for something over a decade.

And any excuses they can use for poor end of season form is because they have so many good players that after the representitve season, the team is a bit lacklusture.
