Robert Craddock? You guys would hate listening to SEN1116 when he's on. You wouldn't recognise him as an NRL fan.

Yeah the one and only Crash Craddock.The way he sucks up to the other AFL tragics and then pontificates in how wonderful x AFL player is embarrassing.
He's a sort of Old version of Josh Massoud.Pretend you're an NRL fan, but serve it up to the code whenever and wherever.

He's sometimes been used as a QLD rl correspondent on particular occasions. Being mates with Kevin Bartlett. Even taking away the cynicism NSW/QLD sports fans demonstrate on here. Even when I've heard him I've thought "****. Is this guy really a rl fan?"

Crash Craddock knows less about Queensland rugby league than IBM.

Craddock is a textbook sycophant, he will sway with the audience. SEN don't get on QLD/NSW guests who flatter rugby league, if they do they aren't asked back. All because it would shatter the Victorian propaganda in Melbourne that the world loves AFL and everything else is inferior. It's why it attracts journos with no integrity, like Rothfield. Insecure nut jobs!

I can't remember ever listening to Rothfield on SEN.

I can't imagine Russell Barwick would thrill you guys?

Usually if they want to get someone on to talk rl news, it'd be someone connected to the Storm. Guys like Frank Ponissi or Robbie Kearns.

We know what Offsiders' angle is going to be:

England beats Samoa, rugby league world is still three countries

The rugby league world remains, for all intents and purposes, just three countries wide after England beat Samoa in Campbelltown.

After the Kangaroos' dominant performance against the Kiwis on Friday night, the international league scene could have used a shake-up, but none was forthcoming.

A Samoan side brimming with NRL talent could not match it with the Englishmen, who ran out 30-10 victors.

The win wrapped up a three-Test Saturday, during which Papua New Guinea beat the Cook Islands 32-22 and Tonga scored a last-gasp 26-24 victory over Fiji.

Ultimately, Samoa ran out of puff in the last Test of the day after matching it with England for the first hour or so.

First-half tries to Ryan Hall and Stefan Ratchford allowed England to jump out to an early lead, but Raiders tyro Joey Leilua put Samoa on the board just after the break.

His Canberra teammate, Josh Hodgson, struck back for England before Anthony Milford scooted over on the right side of the field and, at 20-10 in the 66th minute, the game was not out of reach.

But James Graham and Jermaine McGillvary made sure of the result with four-pointers in the final five minutes.

and Rugby for all intents and purposes is dying a slow and painful, painful death in Australia. AFL is still half a country wide and every other country outside of Australia that has seen it thinks its some kind of joke sport.

Offsiders is a lay down .As sure as night follows day.
The fumblers will be in full lather mode, discussing the drug issues in the NRL.Either
Big Honk Whately,Kelly Balsawood,.Richard Behinds,Francis Leech(sic),or Harpo Wilson will be taking sheer delight in what they suggest ,will be either the NRL self destructing or the usual how many hits does it take to bring the game down.

As a result I will be avoiding this AFL sycophantic show today,watching them getting their rocks off APU,at rugby league's expense.

The NRL players and the Chairman are prime idiots for the allegations made, no argument from me, but I get sick of the pomposity of the fumblers on that show who act like rl judge and jury.

Let me fill you in then. Missed the first 10 mins or so where I think they were on about John Coates. Then, predictably all about the drugs saga where Roy at least was being upfront about how the whole thing is indefencible. No mention of Rep round at all. Then a feel good piece on how exciting the AFL has been this weekend where upsets galore has made this season such a joy to watch. Just wow.

I should have abstained too. You were spot on.

What, no mention of the women's RL international broadcast on free to air TV? Can someone please tell me why they think AFL invented women's sport?
