If the Commonwealth Games are any reflection of Peter Beattie's leadership, Rugby League is in serious trouble.

Not that I disagree with you, but did something specifically happen to make you post this? I haven't really been following the Com Games

I keep telling you guys this is his modus operandi

Step one : Admit mistake

Step two : Express outrage at same

Step Three: Promise to fix things

What was wrong with them? Opening ceremony was good, athletes seemed happy, bits I watched looked reasonably attended. Integration of abled and disabled athletes was ground breaking. Even the usually negative media seemed reasonably positive.

The closing ceremony was dissapointing with athletes not turning up but not sure you can make them.

What were the other bad bits?

He's Abraham f*cking Lincoln compared to the dross served up since in QLD.

But yeah, came across pretty slimy.

The problem is we apparently have to have a QLDer in the position. QLDers are the republicans of Australia - party/state before anything else.

Karl needs to lay off the drink. He is getting that middle aged melon face thing where your face seems to keep growing. Like the beer just goes to your face or something. What do they call that 'melon face'? 'huge face'?
