    Not to be criticising one sport against another, but a trial match in the league with nothing at stake vs a pre-season cup game where there is something to play for.

    Combine all that and it was decent crowd for a league game.
    No one is suggesting that the NRL crowd was poor. Simply, it is plainly riduculous to say in plain English that the NRL won the battle.

    And if we are going down the path of free tickets in a battle of the codes contest, I think one needs evidence as to the number of free tickets given out for both games. For the record, my tickets were not free.

          Oh @@@@. We won.

          Wouldn't it be funny if we won the Ansett Cup in Roosey's last year.

          Ha ha ha ha ha ha.
          Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.

                  Whoa. I don't think it's been the Ansett Cup since the 80s! Probably since the last time we won a game.

                    Did a groin. Not the best injury for an old fella but hopefully not too bad. Richards & Grundy filled in well but admittedly the BLues aren't the most testing forward line opponents.

                            LOL he wouldn't be in the Top 50 players in the AFL and he's got a bit of work to do to even scrape into the Top 100.

                            And then to come out with the performance he did made his arrogance even sweeter

                              And that's what happens when you are rude to our very own Bambi. Karma.

                                Sooo frustrating!

                                One HD is replaying the game at 1pm today. Fingers crossed the recorder works, I want to see the Jetta 3rd Quarter bonanza.

                                And cheers Sharp9 for the Torrent site.
