Someone said on one of the other threads that league has a culture of criticising itself from within. Ray is supposed to be a the major league commentator on the radio and has become famous because of the game.

He has done nothing but bag the code on his show this morning and he even advised onme women to start watching Super 12. He is even (and seems to be taking some glee) in reading out unsubstaniated emails regarding several other accusations.

In my eyes Ray is no longer a rugby league person listening to his show. The NRL ought to be ashamed of themselves for giving this man exclusive rights to call the game at the expense of others.

I know the players have done some dumb things, but they are being treated by criminals by this man.

What chance have we got? Could you imagine AFL commentators going on like this about their game? "Go watch Super 12".

Steve Price from 2UE obviously has an agenda, but our Ray? He's lost me for good.

Ray never played League. Only Union.

However there's no money in union on radio and he's too much of a boof head to fit in with the Union crowd, so he went to where the money is. League. He's never been that strong of a supporter of the code!

I've got not problem with it. It is better to uncover all these complaints now, and change the culture quickly, rather than have these incidents occur for years.

I think Ray thoughts echo a lot of other people out there. We're frustrated by the childish antics of grown men in the public eye. I think its rather obvious that players are not reading the warnings and as a result are embaressing themselves greatly. What ray said was simply a sign that he's had enough of these 20 somthing yr olds dressed in nappies.

He's not bagging the code,.....he's bagging certain players.
Players that deserve a bagging and a booting.

I listened to his program today, and heard many of the claims that were made.

I can't blame him for bagging what people did. I mean for crying out loud, Willie Mason allegedly swore right infront of women and children for all to hear. He deserves all he gets.

I agree with the criticism of Mason. The guy should be kicked out the game immediately. *edited-rumour*

But telling people to watch other codes was the last straw with me regarding Ray.

Unfortunately it is a big League story.
Ray Hadley is a League commentator.
It makes sense that a League commentator would go chasing a big league story.
Don't forget, Ray is being paid to keep his listeners tuned to the radio station he is on. With radio journalism, it is necessary to "go with the flow" of the listeners opinions otherwise people turn off.

... I was referring to people saying Mason is about to be sacked and de-registered? Those rumours were now edited from the posts so blah on you

0neye has to go.

btw, hadley did not tell that lady to go watch Super 12. The lady said something like she was a long time rugby league fan but with all that had happened in the last 6 months, she could not take it any more and wouldn't be having much to do with rl anymore. Hadley replied by saying something like "i really can't blame you".

Hadley's show this morning was excellent....handled things real well and was right on top of everything especially when he gave it to Mason........"he's a drug taker, he's a boofhead!"

Reading emails out about a player seen "chewing gum" was the last straw for me. It is getting to the point where people with an agenda against the game can just email in and turkey broadcasters will read it out as gospel.

Chewing gum and we all know what that means.

I feel sorry for gasnier, but not Mason.

You would be horrified to know how many stories we read are as a result of emails being sent to reporters. Disgusting !! And for those who do it. They could never be called League Supporters.

Good old 0neye, if he's not talking up his own dragging rugby league through the mud (i.e. his support for the dogs-roosters riot), he's celebrating other rock apes dragging the game through the mud. At least he's consistent. :roll:

Maybe Ray can make up a song about the latest crisis and play it all weekend. That will be sure to fill in a couple of hours of crap.

Yeah 12 hours of suppossed rugby league coverage. Half of it, childish songs repeated again and again.
