Good to see the Victorians on the panel today- Underwood,Caro Wilson and Big Nose Wheatley managed to spend three of the four minutes they allocate to Rugby League to criticise the Bottle throwing/ Graham incident from 9 days ago, considering the show wasnt on last week to afford them the opportunity.

They don't even try to hide their approach anymore.

The show is beyond pathetic.

Wheatley will never be the respected sportscaster he so desperately aspires to.

Do they ever mention the ongoing situation with Ben Cousins ?

Gerard Whateley is the classic example of someone who specialises in a few sports & then uses generalisations for others he doesn't really follow, but wants to make it sound as though he knows everything.

He'll mention specific events ( rather than going into detail ) from a sport he doesn't really follow like rugby league & speak with a lot of confidence to build his reputation as an authority on all sports. He'd have people helping him to pick out key facts to enhance his appearance on tv, but it's superficial coverage.

Just tweeted The Offsiders 'Hope you and the panel enjoyed bashing Rugby League yet again today'.

Join in if you like folks.

it was ridiculous how they were claiming the fans who threw bottles weren't being looked for by the club and the club was all talk about life bans

not only are the club trying to identify them but so too are the police

Underwood? Didn't she get a mention in RLWs most influential women in league list before Christmas?

Disgusting.

By the way Whateley is co-host of the Fox Footy 360 show. His bias is deliberate. As an ABC employee I regard his behaviour as unethical as he has a conflict of interest.

And they managed to squeeze a minute tribute to Richie benaud at the end.

Forgive me but I would have thought that deserved a more prominent position in the show.o
