Allow me some time to weigh in to this debate.
For a start, I did in fact say that Raiders 2004's comment about Benji was in poor taste, so there goes your idea about all Raiders fans staying silent.
Point 2, simon says you say that your comments about Canberra were tongue in cheek and generic. Pull the other one mate. Nowhere was it indicated that the comments were tongue in cheek, and in fact just reading the words you have written made me very angry. The fact that someone can be so ignorant, stupid and moronic in one go astounds me. See Yourself in Canberra mate. It's a beautiful place to live. Dank and grey? You must have mistaken Campbelltown for Canberra mate. Canberra is a beautiful, bright, vibrant city.
Your comments about the gene pool in Canberra were the worst though. You have deliberatly set out to insult every single person living in Canberra. But again, if you had bothered to visit it and, unlike most Sydney people I have personally encountered, actually opened up your mind and realised Sydney is not necessarily the only city in the world, you would know that there is nothing wrong with the people living there. In fact, the person who your comments would refer to most aptly (a certain PM I won't name) lives in Sydney.
When it's all said and done, I realise it's only words on a computer screen from some little immature idiot. But the truth of the matter is I will defend the city I love to the hilt from any and all detractors. I would expect the same from you if you really loved the city you live in and someone attacked it. Grow up, get a brain, live life and see the world. Sydney is one of the ugliest places I have ever been, there are so many more beautiful places to see.
Point 3 (yes, that was all point 2). You have all complained how the Raiders should have been penalised more. But from what I can see, you cannot pinpoint where these penalties should have came. Do you expect the referee's to start inventing penalties because the count is becoming lopsided? In my opinion, he should have taken stronger action and sent someone to the bin if he thought it was so bad, maybe then all the stupid Tiger penalties would have stopped. No point blaming the ref when your team wants to play silly buggers.
