And while on last nights "Fan Experience", who at our club thought having a "Fat Mans Race" was a good idea? Lets get 2 fat guys out of the crowd to race 100 metres so the crowd can laugh at them. Honestly you couldn't make this sh*t up. Unprofessional? Undignified? Inappropriate? Not even close to how it played out. Utterly disgraceful. Little wonder BA is still employed 9 years later with this mob running things.
Then there was the introduction of this seasons NRLW Team members. Name announced, name lit up on the screens and stood at the players tunnel so only the suits in the expensive seats could see them. What about a fuc*ing photo on the screen so we know whos who? Talk about amateur hour. I thought maybe they were lined up for a guard of honour for the NRL Team to run through. Of cause not. They then wandered off like Browns Cows.
Then there is that fu*k stick announcer with his one liner "LETS MAKE SOME NOISE". Thats it. Its all he has.
Then of cause we have half time where mini footys are thrown into the crowd. Every week they throw them to the same section of the crowd. Unbelievable. At least they ran out of blue and gold flares last night that usually ruin visibility for the first 10 minutes of game time.
Couldnt organise a fu*ken chook raffle.
In a word, Embarassing.
Apart from all of that I enjoyed myself. I seriously dont expect any better now days.
High quality and quite legit rant there Gaz.

Brown is probably on twice as much as Makka. Is he twice the player ?
Yes he very much has been, you appear to be judging him on just this year? Maka is paid shit because he is an ordinary player… people have very short memories!

Makka would be shit if his game was full of errors. You know, hands like feet or an arm grabber. So I prefer to refer to him as an average top 30 player. He’s a prop and Brown isn’t BTW.

The only positive that can come from today is Manly and Roosters losing so we don’t actually lose ground in terms of the bottom of the 8. Manly are halfway to losing, but the Roosters will likely rack up a cricket score vs knights

You're still defending the Makatoa selection ahead of Nrown decision?? For real?

You reckon you've been a season ticket holder since 1986, is that right? How anyone can watch that amount of rugby league and yet still make a comment like the one I've just quoted you on is...... how you say, perplexing at best... delusional X 100;every other day.... Deadset

he also told us JA was the best half in NSW cup.

defended the Bryce signing when many said what for.

then defended the coach to not use Bryce.

Against the Warriors:

Makatoa 10 runs 102m, 24 tackles 0 misses 37minutes played
Rodwell 3 runs 39m, 16 tackles 0 misses 19 minutes played

I'm not sure I see the benefit in Makatoa over Rodwell, who is probably cheaper, and has a much higher ceiling.
