Anyone heading over this weekend?
Gosh the crowd looks dismal!! Why Melbourne surely Queensland would have been better for this?
Tasmania would have got a bigger turnout
Considering it's an AFL free day and Storm not playing until Monday, it's pretty crook. When are Rugby administrators going to see the bleeding obvious? Thank f@ck the Mungos will be on soon.
Charlie Gamble the "Neville from Subbies" only took 39 minutes of trans Tasman to become "Charlie Gamble the Man form Christchurch". :iconrofl:
GTT!!
Really enjoy Justin Harrison’s commentary. You can tell why he was part of a successful organisation
Very clever scheduling having all games in super round counted as kiwi home games. The crowds appear to be exclusively kiwi supporters
And the attendances are just as low :snigger:
Except when he's making excuses for Nick White getting Sir offside with his usual mouthy git f@ckwittery.Quote:

I enjoy Sean Maloney's commentary. His Love and enthusiasm for the game I find contagious.
Justin Harrisons' friendly niggle with Andrew Mehrtens is funny.
The rest I can take or leave. But I enjoy it as a whole.
I would generally agree X. But I do find Maloney's commentary a little over-egged at times. The bias doesn't worry me too much. It's nowhere near the level of Kearns’ embarrassing whining. It would be a little strange if they weren't TBH. But trying to gloss over foul play is crossing the line IMO.
I like Maloney, his commentary is about the game. I agree I don't want to hear Horan moan anything not Reds/Qld. Mitchell "can I not tell anyone how much I feel ripped off from the Force" rhetoric. Every other once player from another team is annoying, just wish Sharp, Cannon or someone so not " oh my god, Shute shield/ my school/ can I never say good play by the X player who is currently playing with "Y" team be it Force or not. Merthens I find hilarious with his forgetful commentary et al but the fact he cares more for the game and spectacle then showing who he has rubbed shoulders with is refreshing. I like the game, i dont really care for their school
They do seem to be pretty bipartisan when complaining about foul play penalties being given.Quote:

He forgot to pack spare jocks on game day. Had to borrow from a meticulously prepared team mate who always took a 3-pack. Nick BerryQuote:
