The Prong is pleased his name did not make the list.

The Prong rarely whinges about anything except the difficulty in finding a decent pair of Y Fronts that can cater for his member.

Moffo, will you stop impersonating porno stars...

"It's not whinging, it's a fact."
I reckon AliN deserves a lazy $20 after that controlled piece of ref-moaning.

 

[Johnsy]

Ill go a lazy $20 on willow, ElD and MFC

[El Duque]

Willows got to be a certainty. Saints win and he's whinging so what happens when they lose?

 

[Willow]

You misjudge me El Duque. My thread, entitled 'Beat the ref and then win the game' was merely underscoring the blatantly obvious... that good teams can overcome dodgy refereeing decisons. Maybe you should read it.

On the bright side, you stand above the pack... there is no way you can blame parra's loss on the ref.

Time to sack the coach I reckon.

I did read it. Nothing more than one eyed whinging is what I'd call it.

I could quite easily, but a)it won't change a thing b)my odds will shorten

 

[imported_weasel]

Should Yaqona really be at 12 to 1? He barely ever posts. And I can't see why the likes of Canadian Steve and Marcus wouldever be likely to unleash on a League referee either. Ifancy myself at 20/1

 

[alex]

At least you won. Hampstead didn't screw up too much on Friday night, which was a surprise, but he was still a dickhead.

 

[alex]

Im betting a thousand on Weasel at 20/1...are there any rules about match fixing?

 

[imported_Docker]

Well, let's loose off one at Bill Harrigan. And Sky TV's halfwits.

The final try of the Warriors Bulldogs was so forward that the recipient stopped, waiting to be called. Not hearing it after 30 seconds or so, and not having anyone tackle him he ran closer to the posts and dotted down.

Funnily enough, the only other people whodidn't seethis travesty were the idiots on the sky commentary team. I watched the game twice, second time with Sterling and Voss who both picked it up.

El duque: "I did read it. Nothing more than one eyed whinging is what I'd call it."
LOL... we can't even scrutinise the ref now? bugger that for a joke.

"I could quite easily [whinge], but a)it won't change a thing b)my odds will shorten"
lol...ok, how about letting is in the reasons why Mander robbed you?Anyway, that still counts as a whinge. I'm putting $50 on you as we speak.

 

[imported_Lord Ted.]

And why not whinge.
Fancy getting Hampstead twice in the first three rounds.
I was going to whinge about last week,but what is the point and it was there for all to see.

 

[Cronulla_Mania]

The jockeying for position has begun! A fierce debut from some of the more favoured runners in week 1 has seen a few minor changes to the odds list. All bets placed with lwosbet will be entered into a barrel, with first prize winning a night out on thepiss with Paul Simpkins

[ozbash]

dockers paying good money....

 

[Willow]

Good effort Moffo.
But I still maintainmy right to scrutinise the bastards.
I've never been favourite for anything before so I'll accept this honour graciously.

Bloody El Duque is giving me a run for my money. Time to whip out the riding crop.

 

[Johnsy]

Moff

I cant remember the last time I blamed the ref for a loss. I will try my best no to dissapoint, if we get done this week it is that whistle blowing felcher's fault, honestly.

Johnsy

 

[imported_Docker]

As a thread for whinging about the whistlers this one would make an average washboard.

Steve Lyons. What a clown!! Monty doesn't know how to deal with idiots. He usually just thumps them.

 

[imported_JoeD]

Lyons was so crap the commentators kept getting him confused with that other clown Hayne. I tried to tell them that Shane spent more time in the sun bed but they wouldn't listen. What kind of parents would name their son Shane when their last name was Hayne anyway?
