worst grandfinal in 40 years of rugby league history

[thuganomics]

If someone can tell me that the Broncos vs Roosters GF was not more boring then this final then they should be shot.

How can it be bad? The Roosters lost? :lol: :lol: :lol:

:lol: :lol: :lol:

 

[Misanthrope]

Who cares about handling errors when the game was tight and emotional? I'd much rather sit through another 16-13 with a lot of errors than endure the 2000 14-6. Most boring grand final in the last decade, without doubt.

Wasn't the first knock on last year after 30 minutes?

I thought it was a double movement, especially had it been Souths, Tigers, or one of the lower teams that scored it. Still, i thought the game was ok, a lot of mistakes, but a lot of intensity. 1st half easily the Roosters, 2nd half, well the Dogs held the ball and rolled over the top. Personally, and i know it comes up every year, but the friggin thing should be played in the day. I cracked my first beer around 11 am and shouldn't have to wait till 7pm to watch the game. It's a bloodydisgrace, and it's not what the majority of fans want. Wake up NRL

 

[lodown]

and we got a Mander wooohoohohohohoho at the kickoff :lol:

 

[princessjen]

I thought the knock ons didnt matter because both teams were making them and it was poor play, but exciting
Mander can never ref the 10 mtrs but at least he's consistantly bad at it

 

[Tupac Shakur]

I was really pissed off with the start. About 5-6 knock-ons in around 3-4 minutes. Bloody joke! It was alright after that though.

 

[KimmorleyKiller]

how rich would channel nine be if they put an add in on every mistake like on friday nights???

 

[super_coach]

not a great game in skill level----but the close score kept us on the edge of our seats----the ref was great--compared to most games this year--his ten was a bit skinny--but all the 50/50 calls went the right way--i just think the team that setteled and played wet weather footy would win--and both teams failed to do that--but like most of sydney i was glad to see the doggies win and the rorters go home without th bacon again---when is some one at bondi going to work out that passion win the big ones--not the cheque book

 

[parra-matters]

It was a good exciting game coz it was close, the last 15mins was good, the 1st half was boring as.

 

[Red Bear]

I was pissed off with El Masri's try, it was a double movement.

It's funny you say that, as i would think the Roosters like the Broncos before them, would certainly be under a lot of scrutiny. The hard part is, is any club going to be able to be competitive without being labelled cheats? The Roosters, quite rightly won the comp in 2002, after the Dogs, whilst top of the table, did it ILLEGALLY, and hence were stripped of their points. Penrith did it last year, and went close this year, but no suspicion, i don't know, are the Roosters just setting the benchmark, by legally,( even though it may be as most of us see it)as maybe morrally wrong, just doing what they can, and should do, to try to win Premierships?

I was pissed off with El Masri's try, it was a double movement.

There was still momentum in that tackle

 

[STARTLE]

I agree also, I was going for the Roosters but after seeing the amount of errors they made I don't feel they deserved to win. As for the game it was very dissapointing, way too many errors and hardly any biff :roll:

 

[simostorm]

Shocking game, rain didnt help at all, but hey what do you do.
Good result.

Indeed, and I had the misfortune to be there that day too. 1993 was fairly pedestrian as well.
