For what it's worth, I think the media hype concerning the 'MG talk' before the Tigers and Bulldogs game takes away from the efforts of the Cowboys. The Cowboys have won when they HAD to which shows the character that is abundant in this football team.
Yes, MG giving players a pep talk is going to have an impact, MG has done it all in this game on and off the field, I am simply saying that I hope it does not detract from the Cowboys players and what they have been doing in their last 9 games. Keep in mind, they have won 7 from their last 9 which is 5 from 7 without MG's pep talk.
The above was my view on the MG 'pep-talk' hype. A couple of other things to add to this thread:

Nooooo, really ? He called you a w*nker for the only reason being you made an immature comment about an individual who one played League at it's highest peak and now due to age, old injuries, is playing a sport that in some way gives him the opportunity to do what he has done since childhood ? :roll:
Geez, MG, give yourself an uppercut for putting one immature individual in his or her place.

Rumour has it that Alfie Langer has been giving the Storm pep talks for their up and comming clash with the Dogs. As I've said- Rumour, Ive no idea if it's true or not.
You are right to some degree.
I posted a newspaper report from the Daily Telegraph which reported Craig Bellamy had asked Alfie to spend the week with the Storm players in an effort to not only pass on invaluable knowledge about the game and semi finals action, but also to lighten the mood in camp.
I applaud both the decision from Murray and Bellamy in both instances, I would imagine this will be a new trend in League circles next season.
Just go where the pulse is beating. ;-)
