RHYTHM AND STEALTH said:At least next year he will have dry undies now that Timana Tahu has signed for yawnion. Sick of watching him cream his pants everytime Tahu has a decent game in League
There'll be no respite. He's still got Folau.Mr Saab said:Thank f**k the eels didnt make the GF.
Didnt want to listen to him and his sideline comments during the game saying how great Tahu is.
It's funny how the grass is always greener.roopy said:The problem isn't with Johns or the other players on the footy show.
The problem is with the writers.
Those guys are pretty much making up their own stuff - and it is amatuer hour for year after year after year.
I actually watched a little bit of the AFL footy show last night and those guys have lines written by pros and themes and skits that are mostly reasonably professional.
The NRL version has nothing.
Johns is a natural talent, but he is working with nothing.

I find the AFL footy show unwatchable nowadays (In fact have for a long time).
The NRL footy show has gotten away from what maed it good IMO. Keep it relatively simple for a simple audience. And by a simple audience I don't necessarily mean stupid (although it could be argued otherwise). By simple I mean that people on a Thursday just want some light hearted humour. It's gotten way too technical and too full of itself. Still, I'd rather be watching these guys than Sam Newman getting his pants pulled down by Shane Crawford every 2nd week.
