The Rams have made some good choices in the off season for coaches. Hope this is a sign of rebuilding.
My Knights have had another week that makes it all but certain of their third consecutive wooden spoon. An idiot player taking steroids, who if guilty will be rightfully rubbed out of the game, they released an overpaid player who did nothing while at the club and then one of their good up and coming players was in a serious car accident and had his hip dislocated and will be one for the foreseeable future.
With the recent exodus of any senior players worth having around and a few not worth keeping, it makes me wonder why Brown is still the coach when it seems that anyone with any experience at a decently run club is getting out like a rat from a sinking ship...
wow, super bowl was pretty epic. I was going for the Falcons but hard not to appreciate a come back like that. Julio Jones with one more ridiculous catch after another. Very entertaining! Great reception from the crowd for the league comissioner rodger goodell lol.
That Super Bowl was epic. Not a fan of Brady or the Pats but got to respect that comeback. The Falcons really blew it in the end. All they had to do was run the ball a couple of times and kick a field goal.Quote:

Errrr... no. Sure, he has 5, but Montana has 4 all without cheating ;) GOAT! :cool:Quote:

I did not know til today the Gold Coast Titans is administered (& for some time now) by the NRL authority. Is that not a conflict of interest?
So is Newcastle. Both teams poorly administered.Quote:

I agree with Ben Ikin, if the Bears want to get back into the running of a club, join forces with an expansion club like Perth or Brisbane/Ipswich.
NRL is still hoping Newcastle Wests Club buys out the Knights but Wests want to pay bottom dollar (if they are even interested) so it is going nowhere fast.
AFL season proper starts tomorrow! So pumped!
One of the dumbest halves of footy I have ever watched a team play... way to blow a 16 to 6 lead at HT NSW...
NSW, the Richmond of SOO :cool:Quote:

Queensland to send Thurston, Slater and Cronk (and possibly Smith will retire from rep footy this year) out winners and then NSW will always have that stigma that they had to wait for the QLD legends to retire to win series.
-EDIT-
Just also wanted to say how good (in a good way) it was to see Boyd Cordner's reaction to the loss, you could see how much it meant to him (and also that his calf muscle was probably killing him!) If the last NSW had cared and that much passion, it may have won NSW more than 1 series in the last decade.
Character statements from Malcolm Turnbull & Waheed Ali for Bachar Houli on a striking charge. Really?
With friends like that I wonder why the tribunal didn't increase the ban from 2 weeks to 8 weeks?:mad:Quote:

Good news but not so good news is the epic kick in the guts Optus has given us by hogging most of the matches.:mad:Quote:

Optus drew enough ire and criticism when they snatched the EPL and put it behind a double paywall. Lost even more credibility by not having the ability to handle the load.
It’s beyond me how Australian companies and government departments are unable to create any site or online service that can actually do what it is meant to do and handle the traffic it is meant to handle.
TBH that's the most galling part of the Optus response to this, which was basically 'yeah we've done an investigation and it turns out that our paid subscription service shat itself because of the amount of people logging on to use it'.Quote:

(tortured simile) It's like selling 50,000 tickets to a game in a stadium that can only hold 30,000 people, and then acting surprised when everyone actually shows up to enjoy the service that they've paid for.
Oh how it makes me happy to see Brazil bundled out of Russia 2018. That means again they've been denied a sixth World Cup for their mantelpiece.
But here are the positives they can draw from this:
1. They didn't have to meet their bogey team (France).
2. They didn't receive a 7-1 hiding.
I always enjoy seeing Neymar cry.Quote:

Yeah it was an awesome Grand Final! Tied at 3qtr time then West Coast take the lead for only the second time in the game with 5 minutes left on the clock.Quote:

From banner lady to the runner, I bet some Pies supporters wish they hadn’t got up that morning.
I said to the wife that Collingwood's banner was a bad omen....and I was right :eek::eek::eek::eek:Quote:

Although it was a nail-biter of a game the likes of which hasn't been seen in the Grand Final for some time. That's the biggest positive to draw from this.
Where are those Collingwood supporters now????? 5 goals in front and they bollixed it!!! LOL!!!!!! I'm a Bombers supporter so by default I never want Collingwood to win anything.Quote:

Also hilarious is what happened to the Collingwood banner before the players came out. Talk about a sign of ill omen.Quote:
