Gallop likens Storm fans to terrorists!

Storm fans, if you really don't care what everyone else thinks of you and your despicable club then STFU. We're going to say you're scum regardless, no point wasting everyones time trying to defend the inexcusable.

This.

No need to feel sorry for myself. I don't. But if I'm thicked skinned enough to cop what comes with supporting a team (and based on what you've told me it seems like you are pretty thick skinned yourself) then surely the CEO of an organisation should be thick skinned enough to deal with the baggage that comes with making an unpopular decision. I'm sure Gates, Jobs, Welch et al were not immune to criticism. Hell, look at what Murdoch has had to put up with recently!

Honestly, in all my years of attending Storm games in Melbourne I have never seen anything come to a head physically. I have been to OP with friends who are opposition supporters who, at worst, might cop a friendly ribbing and some niggle but I have NEVER seen an instance at OP or AAMI where anyone has had a blue or been escorted from the ground. That's not to say that it doesn't go on in Melbourne or anywhere else its just that I've never been witness to it..

Agree..I have been to every home game since day dot and have never seen any biffo with opposition fans.

Where did I say I don't care about the other 15 clubs? And where did I claim we haven't cheated?.


:lol: I see Loudtwat is up to his old tricks again making things up what people said when they never said anything of the sort just to try and support his pathetic "argument."

You asked him to show where you claimed the Storm never cheated, good luck with getting an answer because I've asked him the same thing several times and funnily enough he can't answer it because I've never said it either. He's a deluded old fool who has to flat out lie to make it appear like he has a valid point but all it proves is what a f**kwit he really is.

Did you read what you wrote penny warrior.. we just didn`t get booed.. we got spat at,things thrown at us,abused the whole game,kids sworn at and pushed because we dare to wear our jersey proudly. To go to a game to watch your team and get threatened is NO FUN. It is downright scarey..Why should we get villified every week for supporting our team. IT IS ONLY A GAME..
Every week? So that happens at every away game?

What a load of sh*t.

Show me where I've sooked? I've been spat on, been kicked out of games for retaliating to abuse, and been absolutely hammered in public and in this forum, and for a while there I wasn't going to go to another game in Sydney, then i thought "Ah f**k it", do your worst knuckle draggers, if nobody is hating on you, you're not relevant.
Is it any wonder.

FFS you sooks it's not like wearing a blues jumper to Suncorp for an Origin.

Where did I say I don't care about the other 15 clubs? And where did I claim we haven't cheated? I fully accepted the penalties we were given by the NRL. So you've just made up total nonsense yet again.
Then why whinge and carry on to the extent that you have? If you reckon Melbourne were in the wrong, it's about f*cking time you did.

And you dont have to say something for it to be shown in your attitude. Gallop never said Storm fans were terrorists, but after 400 posts in the thread you still won't admit that.

And none of your rants on this thread suggest otherwise.

Gallop didn't callStorm fans terrorists.
Nice to see you finally realise this. The world isnt such a bad place after all!

Might be good for you do do what Gallop doesn't and attempt to engage your brain in some way before making another one of your factually incorrect and laughable posts, and everyone would be better off.
The old "saving face" tough guy talk. Still bagging Gallop, even though you admit he did nothing wrong. I guess you dont want to appear too enlightened to the truth - you have to live in Melbourne, I dont.

Tell ya what - next time you are up this way I'll shout you a few beers and some of the freshest prawns on the coast, ok? :D

Must have missed that one. Care to enlighten me with a link to the question?

So are you saying that Melbourne cheated? Wow.

If thats the case, why all the abuse, whinging, Gallop hating etc etc etc?

So after all this systematic rorting and so-forth which individuals have actually been penalised?

Yeah, we know about the premierships, but the directors, Storm admin - who has been officially penalised? We know the non-News LTD Storm directors were moved on.

Who really new about all of this. Storm are owned by News LTD aren't they?

Was Waldron ever given an officially punishment? Where are these "rats in the ranks" now?? When is Wally's book coming out?? Will it ever?? Does he know too much??

What about the people who placed bets on Melb winning the wooden spoon?

So many questions remain unanswered.

Just refuse to co-operate and it will all go away.

None yet but hopefully they all will be soon.

Storm is still brewing for player managers

FOUR player managers who the NRL alleged were contributors to the Melbourne Storm salary cap scandal should have their fate decided before the end of the year as the man charged with investigating them denied the matter has been swept under the carpet.

Much of the supporter anger directed at NRL boss David Gallop at AAMI Park last Sunday was fuelled by the league's failure to prosecute the perpetrators of the salary cap fraud, primarily Storm's former administration. But a report by NRL salary cap auditor Ian Schubert also contained evidence alleging four player agents "calculated to assist Storm" to break cap rules. The report was handed to the Rugby League Player Agent Accreditation Scheme committee and the agents - George Mimis, David Riolo, Isaac Moses and Allan Gainey who act for more than 50 per cent of all NRL players - were ordered to show cause why they should not have their accreditation stripped.

That order was made in April this year, 12 months after the cap breaches were first revealed. But their hearings have been delayed numerous times because of changes to legal teams who demanded time extensions to properly mount a defence. And committee chairman, leading Sydney barrister Geoff Bellew, who recently defended Storm's Adam Blair at the NRL judiciary, denied the agents had been allowed to string out the affair and said it was serious enough to warrant the proper processes being followed.

"There is nobody stringing anything out. On the contrary, these are serious matters and they are entitled to time to properly consider them and prepare for the process," Bellew said. "There are new lawyers in each case through circumstances beyond the control of anyone. And certainly there's not going to be any action from me or anyone else which forces them to proceed when they are not ready."

A phone hook-up between all relevant parties as early as today could see a date for the hearings confirmed and, barring further delays, Bellew expects the matter to be concluded before the end of the year. "I would hope so," he said. "I certainly want to get it done before the end of this year and I would think everyone would be of the same view."

What's the odds that no player manager will be affected, and the NRL will come up with a "new procedure" to address the issue.

The owners of the club should also be banned from participating?

What would be done if Penn, Crowe or Tinkler did this instead of News Ltd?


Then there is the gambling issue as well. The whole thing stinks and continues to stink. Abusing the Storm fans was beyond stupid in any case, but particularly in these circumstances.

And there are people who still condone News Ltd & Gallop having any say at all in the way the sport is to be run. And they get to milk it via extended media rights.

Lol at the Storm f**ks with their woe-is-me whinge about copping it at opposition games.

I have never felt as fearful for my safety as I did last time I went to watch the Raiders at Olympic Park. Threats of violence, actual violence, beer poured over me... you name it, it happened. So no sympathy from me for you bunch of neanderthals. You reap what you sow.

What a load of crap. In ten years of going to Olympic Park/Etihad/AAMI I've never seen a single fight.

The only altercation Ive seen was a Warriors supporter who was clearly drunk and upset his team was getting pummelled at Etihad the same week of the salary cap drama.

Maybe you feared for your safety because your a massive d_ckhead.
