    Central Coast Bears NRL Bid.

    Nope you never said that, think someone's jimmies are rustled... I think the Sydney teams might care LOL Do u seriously not understand that? Also it's a unique region is it? As opposed to those regions outside of sydney that aren't unique? hmmm Again never said that. But keep trying. Who...

    NRL record breaking start to year

    Kent sure is a piece of work. Good work calling him out on that previous article... Would love to see his smug face when he gets his comeuppance. Sad little man he is.

    NRL record breaking start to year

    The nuisance pieces by Paul Kent et al + Telecrap are clearly a reaction to the NRL coming into their own as a powerful organisation independent of their influence and its own pathetic attempts to stay relevant as a dying media format. Post-Gallop, the NRL has taken their cushy jobs setting...

    Central Coast Bears NRL Bid.

    Yeah I think I'm the only one born in Newcastle. :sarcasm: Maybe try a better deflection next time for wrongly assuming I wasn't from the area. Again didn't say that I was; explain how its irrelevant or do u think blank statements are enough cause u wrote them? Too bad those other cities...

    BS. So refs should front the media to explain their decisions post game? FFS that is the dumbest idea in the world. But yeah good luck with a coach who actually thinks that's worth calling for in a post game press conference...

    Central Coast Bears NRL Bid.

    Born in Newy. Spent first 25 years of my life there. Also I said "Sydney-centric" not Sydney. Nice try though. Guess what. Australia is much bigger than it was in 1988 as well! Pointless argument. In 1988 crowd averages were 10071. There almost double that this season at 18389. Justifying CC...

    Central Coast Bears NRL Bid.

    I dont buy these claims of history and tradition. Once the NSWRL invited the Broncos + Giants to compete in their comp in 1988 it become something bigger than just a Sydney centric league. Rugby League is increasingly enjoyed on a national scale - we would be denying far more future...

    Organised crime and drugs in sport investigation part II

    No the media's job is to sell advertising; that's how they make their money. They are not some virtuous moral entity to serve some greater good.

    Organised crime and drugs in sport investigation part II

    The media are doing there job, the ACC who announced the press conference on the other hand... "The ACC have messed it up and if they not very careful they are going to end up with massive egg on their face and it will weaken any pursuit of inappropriate behaviour in the future" Jeff Kennet

    Organised crime and drugs in sport investigation part II

    Point 1. I use government as an umbrella term to also refer to government statutory authorities not just the Federal government :sarcasm: Point 2. Sorry I have confused my statutory authorities; replace ASADA with ACC. Point 3. Allegations by Dank & that Gazelle guy that they...

    Organised crime and drugs in sport investigation part II

    Its a bit of a false dilemma your presented there - but who cares how I think they should have handled it. Even my wife can't stand my rants. :D Lets not stray too far off topic... How about for starters conducting an investigation not through the media? You know with evidence finding and...

    Organised crime and drugs in sport investigation part II

    I agree. Labor have done pretty well to manage an expected $10-20 billion deficit from a world-leading economy. Great job! Guess saving for a rainy day never entered the minds of the European or US governments either. (By the way total government debt has been estimated at $415 Billion. Mostly...

    Organised crime and drugs in sport investigation part II

    So no fair-minded person would ever call an opinion piece interesting? Again you respond with 2 made up arguments Wrong. I'm a Titan's supporter. Wrong. Never said anything bout NBN. I'm in IT, I actually like Labor's plan better than the Liberals (75% cost for 25% quality = Bad...

    Organised crime and drugs in sport investigation part II

    Do you always disagree with made up arguments? 1. Issues raised were not new (Who said they were?) 2. No one said the issues were covered "in depth", I said issues were "more in depth" than had been covered here: i.e. listing how the 3 different sporting bodies (NRL, AFL + Cycling) have...

    Organised crime and drugs in sport investigation part II

    I deemed it excellent as it brought up issues in more depth than had been covered here. No one said facts. Settle down. Yes I am biased against bumbling fools. Just as your biased for them. (And by bumbling fools I dont mean Labor. I mean all forms of large, wasteful, unnecessary government.)

    Organised crime and drugs in sport investigation part II

    El Diablo mentioned this excellent Crikey article earlier, it raises some interesting points, including: This is not the first time ASADA have employed questionable investigation methods ASADA are conflicted: Appears the left hand of ASADA doesn’t know what the right hand is doing, or...

    Yeah but these guys know how to win. I agree. But somehow coming from Ricky makes it so tragic and comical at the same time.

    Ricky Stuart Blowing Up Deluxe

    Perhaps when Ricky learns to lose well he will again find himself coaching a winning team? Refs might have been to blame but with his record (i.e. being sacked as Aus. coach and all) he has gotta know that carrying on like doesn't help the club. For the players it's going to a breed a victim...

    Ricky obviously can't control his temper with the refs. Side-note: Does he comes across a little desperate to be best buddies with the players he's coaching? Video of Press Conference

    Organised crime and drugs in sport investigation part II

    I do agree with El Diablo it seems a little unusual for the same paper that thought Todd Carney was "David Carney" would suddenly have such accurate insight into the NRL & the ASADA investigation into it...
