Soliola would have been sent off in the AFL, right Hinds and Big Nose?
From the exact same people who argued only two weeks ago that the AFL shouldn't have a send off rule after a king hit during a game knocked a player out. They honestly think their shit doesn't stink, the cheap cowardly thuggery that has gone on in afl in last few months that are casually excused on Offsiders would be condemned had it happened in the NRL.

Not only Massoud,but Richard Behinds(sic) also gave the Cup a decent wrap, citing the passion and colour and stating 14 teams was great to get the variety.
Underwood the AFL bootlicker looking for a rl negative"but how can the RLWC sustain a 5 week tournament.?"
Massoud actually got stuck into the Police for making a PR face saving announcement , that there is nothing to see re drugs/etc,agian on the eve of the RLWC,which distracted from the Opening game>He cited the similar PR stunt prior to the SOO last year by the police.

It was definitely strange with Massoud being pro-RL today.

Smelly Undercarriage and her chubby little trotters is a bit hard to cop at that hour on a Sunday morning.

It's also a bit rich for her to be questioning if the RL WC can sustain momentum after a Tv audience of 1.4 million, but in the next breath she starts frothing and fizzing about women's cricket and soccer.

All perspective goes out the window when she's pushing her own little hobby-horse.

It makes me sick to say so... but I developed a tiny little bit of respect for Massoud. He really did go hell for leather on the cops and the media.

Agreed, was surprised both defended the game.

Underwood just makes me sick. I wonder if she asks the same questions when the All Blacks play their WC and smash everyone until the semis.
Or the Australian netball team ever get beaten regularly?

She got sacked from the AFL commentary team on Ten for being shit at her job.

She is as relevant as she is talented.

Yeah was stunned at Massouds defence till the Ch 7 link was given.

As for Hinds, he is a fumbleball sucker but seems to be trying to like the game. Will be interesting to see how he plays out...

According to Beetroot Face Sloth in the Telecrap,channel 7 bid $12m for the RLWC and Nein(the LOL RL station $10m).Ch 7 loving the Friday night ratings for the opener.
Eat month old rotten beached whale, Nein.

I can see now where much of the money comes from ,and why we perhaps are panicking too much about a couple of the crowds.Ch7 $12m Qld Govt $8m.PNG Govt $5m,have not a clue how much the ACT/Vic/NT/NZ Govt paid to the organisers.Plus the sponsors.Then tickets and merchandising.
Cost for the tournament expected to be $40m.
