I'll tell my 81 year old grandfather who was at the 1933 GF as a kid to get off my @@@@ing bandwagon.

What a nob.

Another thugby league man. Ignore his irrelevant comments. Wouldn't know a damn thing about Australian football. We know the real story and not these so called "experts' writing for the papers or on radio who have joined the bandwagon. True supporters don't get on the team only when they succeed. Don't worry about these ill informed apologists for league.

Anyone else notice how Roy avoiding mentioning anything about last weeks fantastic TV ratings:

Their highest-rating home-and-away match this season, the round-19 game against Essendon, attracted 175,774 TV viewers, the same number as The X Factor, which was later dropped by Channel Ten.

Stick to writing about rugby league Roy.

I love the line: "They will have 5000 people at their training session on Tuesday. They haven't got a toe in the door, they have got a whole foot."

Isnt that more people than you get at an NRL match these days?

Yeah, thats glorious alright. I agree with you ugg, what a nob. Does he have any idea what he is talking about?

So what about the Wests Tigers? Or St George Illawarra? I dare him to do out to Balmain or down to Wollongong and try that tripe, tell them they arent true supporters cause they dont have a team anymore.

Stick to NRL Gibbo.
