Not really since I was in the middle of a rant, but how could Barrett not have an ego?
I've met the bloke (although briefly) and seemed to be very down earth. Also, in his interviews on TV he comes across in the exact same manner. He's never seemed up himself at all to me.

in a few short hours ive changed my tune, id like to see Melbourne in the grand final now, it would be a great thing for the NRL and rugby league in general to have no Sydney team in the grand final, the daily telegraph and the rest of the sydney media deserve to have to promote and discuss some out of Sydney teams for once. Id be surprised if the NRL allow Melbourne to beat the Dragons tomorrow but we can hope...

I was listening to the score updates on ABC radio (I mute the tv and listen to the their call of the AFL) and was shattered my CW tip was going down the toilet with the Bulldogs leading 20-6 and then Broncos turned it around.

It would be brilliant if the Storm won, for my tipping for starters, but also there would be no Sydney team in the NRL grandfinal and no Melbourne team in the AFL grandfinal. Puts a lot of noses out of joint :D

* I follow a victorian AFL side but as I'm not victorian myself couldn't give a flying fig who plays off if my team isn't there.

On the game, super performance from the Broncos n the 2nd half.. Really gives me confidence that they will knock off the Dragons if they make the GF...

The only team i dont want to win is the Dragons... As for a All out of Sydney GF, i think people will be very surprised how it is treated by Sydney... After all the Broncos got ALOT of media coverage during the week probably more then the Dragons...

Great win from the Broncos. I never had any doubts. When we had the ball we were very, very dangerous. We didn't have the ball for most of the 1st half, but we showed what we could do when we did get the ball in the 2nd half.

Feels ****ing awesome to be in the GF, just wish it was an arvo game instead of a night game. :@

BARNES OUT
As much as it pains me to say it, the Broncos have this GF wrapped up IMO. Can't see either of the Storm or the Dragons beating them. That said, I'll cheer the other side the whole way :p.

I understand.

Wish Peter Beattie will call a public holiday as a one-off thing, I mean Bangladesh had one of those when they beat Pakistan in the 1999 World Cup (I suppose you could use the term beat very loosely).

But what about Brisbane's GF record? 5 out of 5 so far, that's amazing.
