No big suprises really except that ANZ Stadium is the 4th most popular for RL fans to watch the game at.

I am getting sick of this day time grand final stuff. Every year same crap. Nutters just need to accept it and move on with their lives.

 

[adamkungl]

ummm is it just me or are a whole bunch of questions missing? are they somewhere else or did the Telecrap do something typical like remove the answers that don't suit their twisted agendas.

Anyway, thoughts:

6. How the f**k does Sheens escape notice, yet again. 1%??? But other than that I mostly agree.

7. Overrated player, Mason. Fair enough. Dopey sh*t, hasn't played a good game since Origin. Anasta being anywhere near the top completely unjustified.

29. Typical, the one of the very few with a shred of useful football analysis is voted the worst. Fine, lets have a TV commentary consisting of the Johns brothers, Ben ikin, and Fatty Vautin. Then see how everyone likes it lol

Other than that, all is pretty obvious, some glaring things the NRL and clubs should be looking at regarding Sunday games, ticket and food prices, etc.

'useful football analysis'

of course.
