Might not be a bad idea to have a relegation system. We could come back into the NRL when we can compete at that level again.

The agenda is in your head.

The criticism of Melbourne was malicious. At no time did they threaten to gag a commentator with threats of legal action. You have got to be joking when you whinge that "not even Melbourne has copped it like we have" - this is exactly the sort of soft attitude that has pervaded the Eels club. Blame someone else, accuse people that criticise as deathriders or invent "hidden agendas" all the while accepting on field mediocrity and making excuse after excuse.

Melbourne rorted salary cap by over million bucks in one of the most mallicious attempts of cheating a system since 2002, what did we do to deserve the treatment we're copping from one the most influential media figures in the game right now?

The ONLY reason I would not like to see our club sue his ar$e off is that it would cost us too much money.

The merkin is damaging our brand with his comments, and shutting him up would be worth the cost.

Sponsors don't mind where you finish on the table, but constant negative media will put them off.

I didnt have a problem with anything Hadley said. Except to the parra fan to take the jersey off, that was uncalled for, its in the middle of winter ffs..

You think that the choice of a consultant coach would justify throwing a team out of the comp?

You're a bigger knob than Hadley.

At least he doesn't pretend to support the club.

No supporter should be told to take off their jerseys out of shame. The reason we are wearing the jumper is for pride of supporting such a great club in parramatta! We should storm his station and show him a sea of blue and gold pride.

he's just a radio hack stags, i wouldn't let this get to us, he has a microphone and thinks he's big enough to bag clubs when they're down. I'd like to see him in the business and trying tyo get a club out of tough situations. until then he has nothing to comment on as far as i'm concerned

Apparently some people would rather we cheat than come last

I was appalled that he publicly humiliated our fans who were loyal and passionate enough to wear their jerseys to the show regardless of the fact that we are coming last. If he wants to take on one of our fans next week and tell me why I shouldn't support our club I will be there with bells on.
Did he tell Rabbitohs fans they should stop supporting their club when they we're kicked out of the comp? No. Did he say Bulldogs supporters should follow another club when they had their points stripped for cheating the cap and got the spoon? No. Did he tell Sharks fans to be ashamed of their club because they have never won a Premiership and their players were involved in orgies? No. Did he tell Newcastle fans their club should be kicked out of the comp because of systemic illegal drug use? No. Did he say the Melbourne Storm supporters should follow the AFL because their team were the biggest cheats in the history of the game? No.
Well Ray you have no right telling me or any other loyal supporter of our great club to not wear our jersey tomorrow regardless of what our board, coaches or players are like.

Mate you wouldn't get a chance to say your point of view Hadley would just talk or scream over the top of you.

He is a name with a profile and ur a nuffy like the rest of us don't think for a minute you would be given the same chance.

Not on his radio show because he just mutes anyone with a differing opinion to his, but I would be happy to take on his challenge that he threw down to our fans on the footy show last week.

I took your comment to be about the media as a whole.

Hadleys rant seems over the top and stunts like telling fans to take jersies off is unjustified.

But acting like sooks and threatening some vague legal action is a very crap reaction and just adds fuel. So our club comes across as weak and incompetent.

Hadley is an absolute wanker and it sounds like he was spouting more shitful hyperbole...but he's right about one thing. We are an absolute basket case, absolutely no doubt. That said, he can f**k right off and suing him only feeds his ego and makes us look weaker than we already do, if thats possible.

He was always going to say whatever was going to get the most amount of people pissed off.

He is a shock jock / professional troll. Even if he didn't believe the things he said he would still say them to fire people up.

Best defence is to ignore in my opinion.
