    Kinda reminds me of when Noel Gallagher told a Sydney audience in 2005:

    NG: "So you qualified for the World Cup (2006), did you?"

    crowd cheers...

    NG: "But it is ironic don't ya think that ya now shit at cricket..."

    crowd returns banter...

    hey grant! to answer your q. of some weeks ago, i'm kinda floating between 'happy with all the publicity' and 'jeezus.. too much publicity'!
    i suppose it's cool though, because souths have such a great history & legacy.

    I hear ya mate! I have a dvd of ole Rusty on Inside The Actors Studio with James Lipton (which was done few years back) and he goes into a bit of detail about the Rabbitohs and his allegiance to them...

    South Sydney Rabbitohs have indeed a truly rich and legendary history, as well as a proud pedigree

    If I wasn't busy looking for a job, I'd volunteer to help out in Queensland.

    I saw report today that Souths is looking to buy Sonny Bill (aka Money Bill)...your thoughts, ash?

    again, sorry for the late reply grant.... mate as you know the herald hacks are closely aligned with the mundine/nasser/williams/crowe camp, and whenever
    i see these 'stories' on sunday's back page i always think 'another slow news week'. i reckon there's more chance of bringing clive churchill back.

    It seems it's always a slow news week, mate. Last week both the News Ltd and Fairfax reptiles had Mundine Snr on their main pages saying Money Bill will be the next Ali. I just so happened to be chatting with a Bulldogs supporter the other day (in the sauna, of all places) and he too said will never forgive him after walking out on the club...and he even told me, after they took him on, that the club had bought his parents a new home (when they were still renting). It's amazing that they still give people like that the time of day...

    The Dragons will lose St. Benny after this upcoming season. Oh well, all Hail Bennett!

    Saw this documentary recently (for the second time) on the classic encounters between Wests v Manly ('the Fibros and the Silvertails') during the late 70s...entertaining stuff from a great era of footy! I'm just sorry wasn't around during these times. Anyway, this is some advertising link for the dvd - worth the buy if you haven't seen it.

    Damn, already? Doesn't time fly...especially when one still hasn't recovered from a hangover from the previous season.

    ok. grant barracks for the 'saint george illawarra dragons'. they are the current premiers, and are coached by wayne bennet, the most successful coach in history. dan goes for the 'new zealand warriors', a team with big maori's whose bash and barge style is always entertaining. i support the 'south sydney rabbitohs' a foundation club which is owned by russell crowe. that's why the hats and jackets he gives oprah etc. have a bunny on them. they are the most successful team in history, but haven't won the big show since 1971. so pick a team, and enjoy the show.

    i will be rooting/barracking for the "dragons" as well. SCORCH the mascot (while havin' a kinda fucked up "pete's gragon" face) is a hooker!

    As far as SCORCH's concerned, there’s simply no downside to being a Dragon - he's strong, he can breathe fire and he can fly. Even better than being a Dragon is being the Mascot for the mighty St George Illawarra team. Where as he'll tell you in his jovial way - "this year's our year for sure." The thought of defeat never enters his mind and with every Dragon try he delivers a scorching burst of fire.

    SCORCH is an eternal optimist. No matter what the situation, he has a way of casting aside all the negatives and seeing only the positives. He’s seen his fearless Dragons play hard to know that there's no such thing as a lost cause. For SCORCH, not only is the glass half-full, but it’s a great glass in itself and the water is shiny, clear and probably going to be the best he's ever tasted. Life, just like Rugby League, is all about moving forward and building momentum

    On the field, SCORCH is always ready to fire off a well timed pass or to make that courageous last ditch, head-on tackle.


    Year of Birth: 1999

    Place: Somewhere between Kogarah and Illawarra

    Position: Hooker

    Height: 270 cm

    Weight: 230kg

    Skills and attributes: Ability to turn up the heat during the course of a match.

    All time favourite players: Mark Coyne, Rod Wishart, Matt Cooper and Ben Hornby.

    Most memorable moment: Grand Final appearance against Melbourne in the first year of the joint venture.

    Favourite Hangout: WIN Stadium and WIN Jubilee Oval

    Favourite Food: Curried chillies washed down with tabasco sauce

    Premierships: 0

    Prediction: The Dragons to win the premiership.
    Another one of those classic genius posts, sure to generate responses. You log on the next day to see what your witty gem has produced to find no one gets it and 2 knotheads want to stick their dicks in it... Well played, sir!!

    when i first watched your game, i pretty much got it straight away. the main diff is our blokes can't throw it forward, or tackle/block anyone without the ball. oh, and the attack has six tackles (offensive plays) to move the ball upfield before it's a handover. give it a go man, it really is an entertaining game.

    ash- one new fan at a time!!!!

    Unfortunately, to qualify as a Roosters supporter there's a stict criteria that you must abide by:

    a) Drink latte regularly

    b) Have to own a 2 bedroom home costing minimum $1 million aussie dollars

    c) Being a "sensitive new age guy" who wears pink shirts

    The absurd list is endless...
