Out of 10
Mines not as much as Smith
Not as much as Hodges
Not as much as Thaiday
Not as much as Inglis
Not as much as Bennet

But its a 9.5 on the hate level.
But I just formed a scrum of merkins.

Whats he done? Hes been meninga.
Can you imagine going into a meeting with him hearing his talk about culture & keeping a straight face?
Wonder if anybody will ever tell the story of why he got kicked out of Brisbane.

Tallis is at the top of my list and I'm really starting to hate Thurston more and more.

Notable mention is Renouf with his little stints on Fox on some Mornings.

Arrogant as hell.

Am l right in saying ramrada was shamed by meninga and missed a 4 nations for something thats now been shown in court to be bullshit?

Whereas tbere is no doubt in the fact he openly supported his rapist murderer brother and missed nothing.

HATE LEVELS:

Hodges - 10 - smug, arrogant, dumb, dirty player to boot...
Tallis - 10 - see above.
C. Smith - 9.5 - see above.
Meninga - 9 - hypocrisy+++, biased selections, arrogant as QLD Coach.
Gillett - 8 - because he played us to get a bigger contract when he had no intention of ever joining us.

Thaiday - 7 - fat and lazy but still gets picked.

Bennett - 6 - had some wisdom but lost it...

Yep and believe said brother went straight back to reoffending after our national holier than though coach gave him a reference.

As a youngster, I was a big Meninga fan. Naive enough to be convinced that Australia had moved on from the culture of casual racism because our national footy codes had so many indigenous stars and he was Kangaroos captain. Filled my little progressive heart with pride. :rolleyes:

But his utter hypocrisy, over Fifita and other 'culture' related issues, just made me want to yak. Fifita never made a public statement or railed against the justice system. Only wrote an acronym on his strapping, a cryptic message for himself in support of a mate. It's called rehabilitation, Mal. Good on you Fifi.

I can even understand the reasoning behind not selecting Radradra because he was personally charged with a major crime and was the subject of an official criminal investigation. Albeit not yet ruled on, the NRL could make a sound case for not bringing the game into disrepute until the matter was cleared up.

Plenty of players write religious messages on their strapping. Are they sanctioned for the crimes of every religious extremist/kiddy-fiddler?

I can handle the other f**kers. Hodges/Tallis/etc piss me off, but no biggie, that's just your garden variety, sport related smug merkinism. Every good story needs a bad guy.

But f**k you Meninga. f**k you Todd Greenberg. f**k you NRL. Hypocritical f**ks.

*Rant over*

Well said Spirit, my thoughts align with yours on this subject. You articulate them much better than I ever could too. Cheers.

I actually agree with a lot Tallis says

He is like a broken record on the sharks, but he does have some decent ideas.

Also he isn't funny

Was it really mal's call re fifita and radradra or was he just the mouthpiece?

I have a feeling his hands were tied by the NRL and greenberg. Especially when radradra played the previous game.

Still a merkin though.
