Good god. What a sad individual. And the comments are worse; I picture them all to be written by wanky arts students, computer programmers, and other faux-intellectual types that frown upon such neanderthal nastiness that is anything that makes someone break a sweat. They would be of the type that think people's time and money would be better spent enhancing Sydney's cultural profile with theatre and live music at pubs instead of beer and footy. I would know - I'm a Computer Science uni student, I see these people every day. Pah I say. Stick to your fine wines and deep analysis of the latest nonsensical scribble/nude children masquerading as "contemporary art", the rest of us will get back to discussing whether the QLD selectors are going to grow a pair and pick Scott Prince for Origin 2.

WTF? look at the comments below the article, people are actually agreeing with him....

what on earth is going, this week has been a nightmare for RL fans.

I agree. Has anyone seen a worse week than this in terms of headlines and news stories. I didn't live here during SL war so i can't speak for that time.

Heh, just seems like another 'satirical' writer with a rediculous opinion. I posted a comment (under the name Josh, but doubt you'll see it, assuming he wants his agreers to be the ones publically presented).

Go to a Rah Rah private school did you Gregor?

I read about 20 percent of it. Terribly written.

hahah, same here, i see all the arts students (at the uni i go to, dont know what its like everywhere else) (that every other deparatment hates) and every1 jokes their degree will enable them to work at maccas. classic. the women are all feminists and the guys are all pu$$ies (most of them, there are the 1% who are normal) when their union got introduced to us, their introduction was "And now for those interested in working at maccas, this is the club for you, the arts union, going nowhere fast!" they run groups such as "Why marx was good, and the threat of capitalism" and have socialist alternative movement meetings which no1 else goes to apart from them.
But yeh, i can see ur point, trying to promote the old stlye entertainment of the 'shakespearian' era thru to 'jane autsin' era enjoyed. which cant be replicated today cause we have moved on, and those ppl need to 'get with the times' IMO, as fiztgerald put it in the great gatsby"YOU can't repeat the past"

:crazy:

I think you have missed the point which is to ridicule

The fools are the one that seriously agree or write back and give their inverse opinion like it is serious

It is not even backhanded it is obvious what he is doing

I don't think they're trying to promote ye olde entertainment, I think they're self righteous wankers on both a moral and intellectual high horse, whose lack of any athletic ability leads them to disregard anyone who values sport .

Are we not sure that he isn't "trolling in real life" because that is so over the top it is verging on comical.

He hits every cliché as if he is doing it on purpose. I mean if I was going to write an article to stir up Rugby League followers it would be pretty much that one. Over the top intellectual style, rugby league players are dumb, rapists, THEY ARE PAID MONEY NOW NOT LIKE IN THE GOOD OLE DAYS, Rugby League heheh its no union, why do the guys on the footyshow wear womens clothing, makes you think. Hey not only are rugby league players rapists who rape women with their raping ways, they are also suspected homosexuals.

Also the drugs... DO NOT FORGET THE DRUGS.

Yeah, maybe he was serious, but its so ridiculous I would hope he is joking otherwise for a satirist he has the subtly of three sledgehammers tied together

Its pretty obvious he is just trolling, he is probably sitting back laughing his ass off at some of the outraged comments you guys are sending him. The whole point of the article is to piss people off and you idiots fell right into his trap.

Oh - my - f**king - GOD

I am speechless...

That is outrageous.

My tax dollars are spent on this hack?

Is that even journalism?

You are a f**king disgrace pal. Nothing surer.

Oh and nice homophobic rant that you slid in there for good measure. Dickhead.

Umm, who cares? I personally know about nine people who love rugby league and have 1000 times as many people reading their articles. "Online journalists" are just dickheads who were never good enough to get a real job. Absolutely pathetic and this bloke would be lucky to pick up $20 for his "article".
