Mike Coleman is a moron

Today he writes complaining the SBW has signed a deal with Channel 9 to help keep him League. He brings Johns up again. He then goes onto say that the NRL didn't help the Broncos keep Sailor and Tuqiri by organising them deals with Channel 9.

He then even says "Even if the NRL wanted to help, they couldn't because Channel 9 is a sponsor of the Broncos"

So why say that the NRL should have helped you if they helped others. But then say they can't help you anyway?

Anyway Sailor has the personality of a wooden door and Tuqiri is a bit on the dumb side, so they wouldn't appeal to 9 anyway.

Coleman has shown himself to be an idiot many times, but in this case when he complains that the NRL should do something, and then shows that he knows why they can't in the same article, is a joke (at least the last time he brought up the NRL not helping the Broncos keep players line, he didn't say he knows why they can't). It seems that Coleman is only interested in bagging the NRL for being anti-Broncos. Even if it means making stuff up.

What does mike coleman care anyway, he's a union boy.

He is? All he ever talks about is League (and mainly giving a spray to the NRL, Phil Gould, or someone else) on how they are anti-Broncos and anti-QLD.

Razor if Mike Colman is a moron, what are you.

You keep reading his articles & then you post about them.

Colman is a North Sydney Bears fan (well I think he is)

Coleman is a clown, he embarrasses himself (but doesn't realise it) and Queensland everytime he is on 'The Back Page'.

I can't believe this guy is a journalist, let alone sports editor for the Courier. :x

I read his articles for a laugh and Kaz you keep reading Goulds columns or listen to him and post about them.

True, but he still has to actually speak truth, instead of criticising the NRL for not allowing the Broncos to do something, which he then admits he knows they can't do.

Notice the Ear always leads his bullshit gossip column with Yawnion news?

And always gives preference to AFL and Yawnion over league.

"the ear" - mark whatever his name is, is union 100%
colman's backpage is not always about league, he is not a rugby league specific journo at the CM, hence afl, boxing, tony abbott, union, cricket articles [he just wrote that book about the cricketer eddie gilbert]

razor
the article was knocking the potential double standard/problem with channel 9 being allowed to offer contracts to players that don't count as third party [and therefore are outside the cap]
it was an article that asked for all teams to get a fair go,hardly anti nrl

But he knows that can't happen. Same as NBN Newcastle can't offer contracts to Newcastle players (without it coming under the Knights cap), NBN Newcastle can offer players from any other club contracts, and they won't come under the cap.

It's not a double standard at all. The rule is clear. A player can have any contract/sponsorship they want without it coming under the cap, as long as that company does not sponsor the club.

If you start allowing players to have contracts with companies that also sponsor the club you may as well scrap the salary cap.

Mark Obfart is a lifelong yawnion boy and does his best to brush league yarns aside at every opportunity.
