2024 R24 Sun - Cronulla 19-18* Newcastle @ PointsBet

[Valheru]

I dont know if it's been mentioned but the Ponga attempt actually missed
Fox Commentators didnt know because they were calling the game from the same seat most of us were watching the game from

Really piss poor from the broadcasters not to get their blokes on site to call the game properly

Yeah slightly off topic but this really needs to change. I understand COVID played its part but that is over now.

They do go to some games though as Vossy mentioned driving to the ground recently.

 

[This Year?]

Golden point is a blight on the game.

There doesnt appear to be much rhyme or reason to what games they show up for and dont
And yeah, i get that during COVID they didnt have much choice, but that's over now and they're f**king up calls in big spots because they're going off the tv coverage

I cant imagine being a play by play guy and f**king it up feels good. Have some f**king pride in your craft.

I think there doing it for cost...

For sure, its a cost cutting exercise but they do show up for *some* games
I dont really understand the criteria for when they'll take on the cost and get them onsite. NRL should insist they call every game from the ground as part of their tv deals

Golden point is a blight on the game.

Where was the fan backlash about regular season draws that so compelled the NRL to introduce it in 2003?

The only people it benefits are the betting agencies.

Oath. Especially because we’re f**king incapable of winning during it.

They've probably blown the whole seasons budget on the junket to Vegas.

Well that's not going to change anytime soon especially when you've got V'Landys in charge, The NRL are in bed with the gambling industry, Why do you think they are pushing hard for Las Vegas...
