NRL finals time

ace, i'd pick you for a brisbane bronco's fan. they're pretty feral, with a strong sense of entitlement... exclamation mark

They didn't come as feral as Michael Hancock...

[ashstralia]

gordy was pretty frightening on the day...

[Grant]

Yeah he was, unfortunately he was even badder (mongrel bad) when he was at the Dragons...

[Grant]

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.

For some reason I felt the need to point out that after the Dragons, I also have a lineage towards the Bulldogs. My father is an old Bankstown boy and he's been with them since the Berries. I remember the days watching Terry Lamb at Belmore Oval...

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

a) Drink, or watch people drink at a cafe on mic nite, latte(or fruit punch out of 2liter bottles) regularly = chreck

b) Have to own a 2 bedroom home costing minimum $1 million aussie dollars (or rent a tent) = check

c) Being a "sensitive new age guy" who wears pink shirts (or capes and masksksssksss) = check

d) Be "lOOOOathed" by cyber "bullies" on an internet message board = check



The absurd list is endless...

Benji boy is in hot water for assault charges. I wonder what odds for the Tigers be paying now?

Of course, it wouldn't be another Rugby League year without a game-jeopardising scandal like this. No wonder David Gallop has got grey hair.

[Grant]

Btw, shouldn't we now change the title of this thread to something like...Australian National Rugby League?
