I can't watch any more.
I'm sick to death of Phool Gould and Andrew Johns. "Just let them play", "Who cares if he's half a metre offside", "Ruining the game", "That's not how the game is supposed to be refereed".

f**k off you merkins. Both of you. Most of us understand that the rules are there for a reason, and if you let players take an inch they will take a mile (e.g. the Storm with the wrestle, the Roosters with penalties inside the 10 or the Broncos with the salary cap). But no, Gould and Johns have this idea that they know best, and what they want is what's good for the game.

But that ain't necessarily the case. Most of us think the crackdown around offside and the play the ball early this season was good for the game and was leading to positive change; but the nein commentators intimidated the refs to the point that the bad old days were restored.

You are not the custodians of the game, you are just a pain in the arse. And Phil, if you hate the game as much as your comments indicate, why don't you just f**k off and stop ruining our enjoyment.
and ray 'base over apex' Hadley - fmd - there must be someone else for Thursday night games ffs

Johns said at one point the Dogs' attack was boring. Like your commentary, I thought.
I muted it the second I heard Hadley's voice. Apart from him being a knob, I hate the way he describes everything as if it's radio, and the viewers aren't actually seeing for themselves what is happening. That game was basically rugby league hell.

He was a reasonable radio caller, although I preferred Greg Hartley before him and Frank Hyde even more. Tiger Black was good too, but I only caught the very end of his career. None of them would have worked on TV, it is a different art. Hadley calls on TV exactly as he did on radio. Old habits die hard. And he's a knob as well.
