Between the two of those teams there are at least 4 or 5 Australians playing... and a bunch of South Africans... You could almost say it's Australia v South Africa...
Imagine the outrage if RL done this?
They would be bashed from pillar to post for years, yet not one person in the media has had a go at the nationalities of these players in the teams or the number of people who are not turning up to the games.
FFS, we hear people moaning about the last RLWC which was played in the worst weather seen in England for 900 years, plus the fact the rail employee's were all going on strike, yet RL copped it everywhere, not a f**king peep about Cricket.
Still, the RLWC crowds made the CWC look kinda pathetic
Hypocrites.
They would use the excuse that RL isn't really played in the country, when we know for a fact it is, it doesn't need an NRl or SL to be classed as played in a certain country, they are allowed to have an amature comp.:crazy:
It's about time something was done about the media in this country, sack the bloody lot and get some people in there who know what the people want, and are not scared to print the bloody truth.
Back to the NRL and 9, both should grow some balls, the NRL should first, and CH9 should be publicly humiliated until it starts doing the right thing about the only winter football code it has.
Imagine how much BS swans and Lions supporters would go on with if they didn't get games on either 10 or 7 every week, the media would bend over backwards to help them out, yet RL gets nothing.:roll:
They would print how big the game is in the two states and lie about the ratings beating everything in it's path, yet RL can't get even a frigging replay at a decent time the next bloody day when something else has been put in it's place because it's a so called big event.
And who the hell wants to watch swimming outside of the Olympics?
It's the only time the country gives a stuff about it.
Looks like AFL Eddie everywhere has been listening to Sweeney again :lol:
