yeah, I didn't listen to the show this weekend but the transcript is no different to any other show I have tuned in to
Precisely, and if he had of just let it be instead of trying to vindicate himself and ridicule Brohman in the Courier Mail then there would of been no reply from Brohman in the DT and no discussion of the incident today.Brutus said:Boyd started the whole thing back in 1983 and 2007.
Because what Brohman said was truth and it is idiotic to argue against the truth.ShadesOfTheSun said:I don't see how this makes my comment inaccurate. From the perspective of Boyd's wife, Boyd wrote a fairly harmless article, the primary purpose of which was to reveal the instructions allegedly given to him by the selectors. In passing, he mentioned that his hit was accidental. His comments were, for the most part, fairly innocuous. They were offensive to Brohman only insofar as they suggested that Brohman felt embarrassed about what had transpired.
Brohman has responded by calling Les a liar ("Of course it wasn't deliberate, Les. That is the way we were taught to tackle: you must run in with your elbow cocked at the head of an opponent. That should stop 'em, shouldn't it, Les?"), and calling him an embarrassment to rugby league and to his family.
Why exactly was it idiotic for Boyd's wife to wish to respond?
Rockin Ronny said:Agreed. Arrogant prat who Hadley worships. 2 massive egos who contribute nothing to the game. They lagh at Vautin but suffer the same failing - they both think they're genuinely funny, clever entertainers. It's pathetic. Rugby league discussion - with a touch of humour - is what fans want. Not humour, humour, humour then a mention of rugby league then more humour - especially when the humour is NOT FUNNY.
Next thing, Vautin's son-in-law, Terry Hill will join in.
I don't listen to 2GB, haven't for years. But, when I have heard Brihman, he's pretty good - quite funny and doesn't take himself too seriously.
