If it was played in Sydney we'd get a 40-50k crowd against the Roosters.


Really?

That's a big jump from 27k from last year. Last year was a shocker for crowd numbers in round 1. This game at Suncorp will see that round 1 starts with a game that will draw more of a crowd that will be 15-20k bigger than the same game last year and bigger crowd wise than a lot of the round 1 games from last year combined.

Sydney has had it's chance on this front, now let QLD'ers show you how to open a season.

Amusing comments from rent-a-quote John Sattler in the Tele today. "I'got no real wrap on Bennett. He has done some good things coaching but i knew him as a player. He was very ordinary. I dont take any notice of him-I just ignore his comments."

Yes John, 7 premierships as a coach is merely "good."

When has playing ability ever had anything to do with coaching John

All you need to do is look at Ricky Stuart to see it has very, very little

Considering it's the last two premiers and bitter rivals I reckon it'd get just as good a crowd as tonight....just need to get Roosters supporters into gear.

:lol:

John Sattler. The silly old prick is like that moron Ray Price. Great for a stupid quote when the papers want one.

Useless player? :crazy: Who gives a shit!

Craig Bellamy and Phil Gould were toilers at best. They seemed to go alright at the coaching caper too.

Silly old fart. Back to the bowls club for you.

Anyway, Souffs by about 20 tonight.

bennett achieves another milestone tonight. Surely no other coach has coached a father and son in top grade teams?

Broncos by not many.

Mainly because the Rabbitohs' success is likely to have gone to their head.

Albert Johnston in 1924, not only a father and son in top grade but in the same match.

Tedda Courtney and his son Ed Courtney Jnr both played for Wests against Glebe on June 14, 1924.

There is about two people at Suncorp. Doesn't the game start in half an hour? Where is everyone?

Johnny Raper is another rent-a-quote.

lol, the same John Sattler who said the game is lost to him a year or two ago. But still takes any chance to get his name in the paper.

Bennett has contributed 1000x to the game what Sattler has.

Bennett is also good for a stupid quote if I remember correctly... (this week even)
