:lol: If you think pulling Melbourne from the NRL is the way to go you're an idiot! Imagine if the Swans & Bears were pulled in the early 90's from the AFL competition... Don't give me the crap they weren't and still aren't getting propped up by the AFL! Melbourne are so important for the game of RL to survive in Australia, St George supporters are just bitter from 1999 like they are about 1996, 93,92,85 etc :lol: 31 years is a Long time between drinks:lol:
Wow, you used the "laughing" emoticon three times there.
That lets me think a few things:
1) you are a self assured wanker indulgent in his own sh*t, well, indulgent enough to laugh at it.................... good for you, no one else is.
2) you think emoticons are the height of a great statement, no matter how bad the sh*t in between the first and last emoticon is
3) you trot out the statement, again, that they are "so important for the game of RL to survive in Australia" without explaining how a money eating behemoth with no return other than some far flung "tv rights, f**k yeah, George Bush rocks!" analogy can possibly be good for the game, I will say it again, go to Victoriania, mention the words 'Rugby League" to 99% of the population and they will give you a blank stare before asking "oh, is that the sport where the little dudes ride the camels?"
4) why bring the swans + bears analogy into it?, this is about rugby league, most Victorians don't give a sh*t about it, likewise most of us with the AFL, I don't give a flying f**k if Paul Roos rimmed Barry Halls arse badly and that's why he left the club, I couldn't give less of a f**k if someone was paying me to do so, ditto, Victorians and this strange game where 13 players actually tackle each other.
