Lol how funny was it when Goober Gronk was whinging about the Dragons punishment.

Yeah like the Scum were punished when you ruined 4 seasons of NRL and you were allowed to keep the core group of cheats together. And were rewarded with a Comp 18 months later.


He’s a boring smarmy little know it all, bring back Lara!!!!

What was he whinging about? Not harsh enough? Too harsh?

I didn't watch it...
Not hard enough. And they shouldn’t be allowed to sign players while they are meant to be punished. Someone had to point out to the know it all they sacked a guy out of their top 30 and were entitled to fill the roster spot.

One of your best Goober!

I think I agree, she does seem like a giggling yes woman. And Hadley is a f**kstick.


Yes I have to agree, she has been a disappointment since taking over NRL360. She doesn't contribute much in the way of analytical opinion and giggles way to much. I love her as a facilitator of discussion during pre and post games commentary, but for something like NRL360 they need someone that actually has their own in depth analysis and opinions.

Pity. The show has lost a little since she has taken over. Even though Ikin's opinions sucked half the time, at least he had some and he facilitated well without the giggles.

I would have loved for them to have asked Mark Gasiner back to host the show. I think he is a very neutral and well spoken presenter who has a calmness about him that would suit the show much like Ikin but smarter analysis overall. I would have seen if he could have stepped up and done the role. But she is there now so we will see if she lasts.

Vonny does a better job on 360 than she does hosting the footy panels on a Thursday or Friday night. She laughs at just about anything and giggles her way through the show. She never used to be like that.

Yeah, I don't know what has happened. She has become very annoying now. That never ending giggle is so weak for a presenter that is meant to be in charge and assertive. She loses all credibility and just sounds like a nervous fan girl that wants to appease.

Makes you wonder what happened to Gasnier. Was it his decision to leave or did they punt him!
Seems strange to get rid of him considering he was one of the few decent commentators they had, whilst keeping Anasta, Ennis, Roach, Parker, etc.

Maybe the guys who stayed are cheap ... the salary cap weeded out all the talent

From memory at the time it was said that he wanted to pursue other interests and left of his own accord. But it happened when there was a cleanout and refresh of the on air talent, so make you wonder.

But I would love to see him back and then they could punt that Blocker Shocker terrible commentator. He seems to be co-commentating every other game now. He drives me batty with is 1980's level comments and opinions and that voice. Oh the pain, Oh the pain.

I think people are being harsh on Vonny. And only because she is not Ben.
She was hired/chosen to be the host of the show, not to offer critical discussion and opinions. That is what the rest of the boofheads are supposed to do.
I think she has done well to keep the show flowing and let the blokes be the critical analyzers.
She has done her job admirably so far.

The programme was always going to change somewhat with a different host with a different personality at the helm. For those of you expecting it to stay the same with a Ben Ikin clone, well, you are all just as dumb as the "experts" on the show offering their "expert" opinions.
