I want Mort, the guy on the left.

I know nothing about him but that merkin on the left just doesnt look like someone you want to trust

The bloke on the left is from Souths. Formerly from Manchester United or Liverpool FC or something like that.

In 100 years time, people won’t look back thinking it was a miracle how the game survived the the SL war, the countless scandals or the pandemic, they’ll look back thinking it was a miracle the game survived under Greenberg.

I don't think it's difficult for the game to survive in some form. All that's required are players able to play and audiences willing to watch it.

Looks to me that Greenberg's head was part of the truce deal with News and Ch9. Just an observation of timing rather than a comment on whether Greenberg's tenure was a fail or not.

I don’t think the current NRL financial status is all on Turdster. There’s plenty of other shit that’s his fault though

Its cool to bitch about how Newscorp ran Todd out of the job, but they should remember back to how they also ran him into the job in the first place .... what goes around comes around

I think it was more to do with Ch 9 as Vlandys was mostly responsible for the renegotiated deal for the rest of this season where as Todd stood up to 9 as they tended to run the game to suit themselves..

As much as I'd like to I dont think we can blame this one on News Corp.

Plenty of light reading here

Did anyone else hear the Count and Luke Lewis talking about the 2003 Kangaroo tour yesterday on ABC? Holy crap, some of those guys were loose. And that's just the stuff that they could say. Made me lol some of the shit they got up to. Luckily no smart phones back then.

I can't source them. Will I be in trouble with the bosses? But apparently Chris Anderson endorsed hard partying when the tour party spent time in Spain, and there were small animals like iguanas and chinchillas brought into camp as mascots.
