Poor call there BM , not even close
Pick a record he hasn’t broken or owned.
When asked why Cameron Smith receives less than reasonable performance assessments from emotional non-fans, Luke Lewis – a quality player himself who had played against CS and with him at International level – responded …. “his success”
Name a ‘great’ of the game that did not play with successful team/s or quality personnel and perhaps this observation may be seen as something other than emotional outpourings
I think we all know that if Cam Smith had played for NSW and/or the Roosters, he would be an immortal already ….. and I’m sure NSWRL would be able to fit him under Rooster’s salary ‘sombrero’ …hahahahaha

Craig Bellamy finally happy with red-hot Storm

Looked like desperate measures to me and absolutely identified the lack of hitters in the side
The Indian fielding and field settings also showed how much we have to learn in ODI’s
Each aussie bat was made to try to score where they least enjoyed it.
In all truth not a bad run for a side that hasn’t been in the ODI world for a while, but outclassed by a pretty slick Indian side

India thump Australia to claim ODI series

When India was bumbling it’s way through the first match, Kohli (dismissed after an almost cursory attempt at batting) was in the stands checking out his tatts.
Seemingly unconcerned about the outcome. This is the bloke with the mad eyes who I love how he plays the game because it appears more important than life or death.
Mesmerised by his apparent disinterest in what was happening on the field, I deduced there was only one reason he could be so calm.
After that game (I backed Australia) – I changed my bets to India to win the next two games and the series – now with better odds than two days before.
Guess what happened next.
I hate it when my cynicism pays off.

Wouldn’t necessarily call Freddy’s timing to coach an act of courage …he did wait and wait and wait until the BOATs had retired before he put his hand up. hahahahaha
Lozza was not the first choice while BF and PG were still around !…..
Bit like big Mal, once the immortals started retiring he was gonski
Spare a thought for Lozza, good player and a better bloke, with ticker enough to have a go while 4 or 5 of the best ever still played for Qld
That would make Freddy a bit of a COAT

Joey's ref criticism is absurd

Some part of the Flanno hysteria may come from the following ….
Strike 1 – get pinged for engaging a known drug cheat ‘guru’ to supply performance ‘improving’ ‘supplements’ and ‘injury management’ pharmaceuticals to your players
Strike 2 – during your suspension for Strike 1 , you break the rules of your suspension and are caught ‘driving while under suspension..’ …so to speak
That would be clear-cut evidence of one’s deep respect for the rules I believe…
The cynics amongst us – and thank heavens there are none in this conversation – might think that Flanno’s head coach could end up being Sponge Bob, with a ‘nothing to see here ‘ from a club that also has demonstrated a fairly ‘innovative’ approach to recreational pharmaceuticals at its highest levels
Really difficult to believe that there are so few competent coaches out there that we need to be re-using those with a demonstrated history of flouting the rules and being comfortable about putting the players, under his direct supervision, at risk of long-term illness and organ damage … ..

NRL opens door for Shane Flanagan to coach again

Dave’s gone
He’s been worked out at international level and good bowlers will do what Broad has done
It happened to Hayden and he went away and changed his game – I doubt Dave will do that.
He doesn’t strike me as the sort of person who thinks he could be doing anything wrong
If they bowl as well as Broad – Dave is gone. If they bowl badly he may still score.
Difficult to believe the Aussie side is picked to include players who can score well only if the opposition bowls badly…….but a Marsh always gets to play sooooo, maybe …..
I

David Warner can still dominate Test cricket

Please excuse my typo’s …..just wiping tears of laughter from my eyes
Dessi Hassler is at the post-match having a cry about the ref’s ‘dudding’ the manly-men… hahahah
Ahh the irony, this from a side that has been whistled into the finals
Nearly as funny as Peptide Paul calling for longer bans for drug cheats

Souths squeeze past Sea Eagles in sensational semi-final

Gold work Nat – Peptide-PaulG should be Captain tho’ … based on his experience .. hahahah
Given he works with the Fox/9 Sports team … no I won’t start that one … hahahahahahaha
Outstanding work by the comedy duo of Buzz Too-Manyyear and the NRL-Ventriliquist team- these blokes are kiddin’ aren’t they?
They whinge and moan about how to ‘defend’ NRL image and market share from competing sports and then they clown themselves out with this stuff.
Fantastic.
Couldn’t script this better as a path to derision and scorn by any standard — public or commercial.
I’d be interested to see what the NRL may have decided if Flanno and Peptide Paul played for the Storm … hahhahahaha …they would have been rubbed out for 10 years and lose 3 years of premiership points hahahahahah
Mind you I ‘spose it’s only fair he goes to Crony-ulla, they’ve recently lost a chairman to drug charges so they may be a bit light-on for a reliable supplier … hahahahahahahaha
AFL must love these blokes
I’ve believe they’ve just texted Flanno and DessieH for Stevie Dank’s phone number … hahahahahaha
