If i was a Parra player i would be applauding my coach for helping take the heat off a terrible performance and im sure you would also. In the end of the day he came out and said to the media that his team was poor and the penalties against his team were justified and if you agree with his method or not, the refs will take a different approach and incorporate some consistency into there calls.
You obviously have a grudge against him as a coach and i dont think its a coincidence you conveniently left out or written an article regarding the Tigers coach taking the same approach.

NRL far too soft on Ricky Stuart for refs spray

So Sticky saying his team deserved the penalties was deflecting from a disgraceful performance? He admitted his team was bad but his argument was that there was no way the Titans were that clean and its very well justified and you would see this if you can get over your obvious grudge against Sticky.

NRL far too soft on Ricky Stuart for refs spray

So in your world one cant question the performance of a referee? If you think the refs had no hand in the come back of the Titans i would suggest you stick to Soccer. If everyone took your advice last year and keep quiet about refs, we would still be seeing all those rubbish obstruction calls.

What's the point of blaming the refs?

I knew all the haters were gonna run there mouths at this, Ricky took the thrashing on the chin by the Roosters and admitted they were not good enough but there is no way he should do the same for last nights game. Its no surprise the Tigers coach complained about the same refs lop sided penalty count last week and Sticky has admitted his players were ill disciplined but said there was no way the Titans were that clean and i agree. If you think Sticky is just whinging and hes arguments are not justified maybe you should get you your eyes checked or learn the rules of our game.

Eels coach Stuart fumes about refs

Why does Pearce get as chance to develop while others have been dropped alot quicker and for less? Why are we discussing the 5/8th position when both Soward and Carney did more to earn there spots than Pearce did. Pearce has a weak mentality and i cant bring myself to watch game 3’s last quarter of last year again cause i get infuriated watching Pearce hiding while our structure in attack falls apart, we were a rudderless ship and it took an injured/concussed Farrah to create something for us to level the scores. He is a dud and 9 games should be plenty for someone to prove there merit and i am bewildered to the thought of anyone can even support his selection.

State of Origin: The halves and the halves not

Oikee – Bwhahahahahahahahahahahahaha “Sydney is killing this game by lack of support” Sydney is keeping this game alive you idiot, if we were to leave it up to QLD and Mel to run the game it would be in big trouble with a massive shortage of players. You are still crapping on about Brisbane not having a “superstar” while having multiple Origin and Internation players in there roster while teams like Parra, Penrith, Raiders are very lean in that department yet we dont hear constant whinging about not having a “superstar”.

SBW and Sydney Roosters thrash Bulldogs

Why dont you mention Minichiello’s shocking game in game 3 of the same series? Its one of the worst performances i have seen from a fullback in Origin since i can remember.

Laurie Daley's NSW campaign already doomed

Choosing that dud Tautai over Cheyse Blaire is a redflag for Sticky’s coaching. Tautai looks like a clown out there, he doesnt know what he is doing.

Keating and Ben Roberts need to be replaced asap.

Junior – You are a sensitive type, he wasnt taking shots at Rugby but merely pointing out that SBW will need to get used to the intensity of the games pace. League players require more fitness than Rugby players (not saying they are though) cause Rugby according to the IRB stats say the average time in play is around 40mins where league would be up around 60 to 70min mark. SBW would have had to twice as much work than he did at Rugby and his tackle count proves it. Please stop acting like Rugby fans have the moral high ground cause i am sick of hearing the rubbish that comes out of there mouth regarding League, you just have to take a look in the Roars Rugby section when a subject of comparison to League comes up.I am a huge Rugby fan and grew up with my family being fanatics and played for Randwick juniors so naturally i am surrounded by Ruggers, and let me tell you, League fans dont hold a candle compared to the bickering of the rugger fans. I have played both codes at a relatively competitive level with Randwick and Zone schoolboys for Rugby and Harold Mathews with South Sydney juniors for League and let me tell you that League required much more fitness and had way more intensity.

NRL's return brings usual insults to rugby via Gould

“For the game of rugby league to grow you need to grow international comps like this.” Isnt that the job of the stagnent do nothing organisation of the RLIF? I can see how it can benefit the NRL, but i cant see the NRL change there ways seeing they have had so much success and have claimed a massive billion $$$ payday worrying about its own backyard

Is it time to scrap the World Club Challenge?

He has no right to complain cause the QLD gov agreed. Wally Lewis had the right idea and slammed the Qld gov. Qld have had more games at home than NSw so i dnt see what the issue is.

Can you predict the rugby league headline acts in 2013?

And yet the big three have 2 worldcups a piece land all up 4 nations have a Worldcup, one more than lLeagues world cup tally WOW. Im pretty sure your joking when u mention teams like Scotland, Italy, Samoa, Argentina having a chance to win the WOrldcup.

Time for a Wallabies vs Kangaroos match already!

Six- Mate the NRL just secured a Billion dollar deal, they continue to set the tv rating records and all up the game is in the best shape its ever been, so im prettty sure there is no jealousy there. Alot of Rugby fans are always quick to point out the “International” aspect of the game because the domestic game is a complete joke. BTW LEague have got the 4nations tourno which wasnt played this year.

Time for a Wallabies vs Kangaroos match already!

A League Fullback needs to be a 3rd playmaker that chimes in and out to keep the defense guessing, so unless Ione has a good play making game i would suggest Beale is better suited to FB and Ione on the wing as a power runner that works the ball away from the 20m line. The way Beale beats his man laterally is perfect for a League FB executing a play.

Time for a Wallabies vs Kangaroos match already!

Perhaps ur forgetting Sandow? For the money he was paid he had to be the worst. When u look at teams like the Broncos or Melbourne n the amount of big stars they hve, its funny Parra can only name Hayne n there salary cap is full lol. Sticky has been left with mess That dud Kearney left.

Idris aiming high for Titans in 2013 NRL

Johnno i agree with alot of ur comments but i strongly disagree with ur comments regarding Phipps having some good games. The best game he had was against England, but one line break doesnt make up for one of the poorest halfback performances in a Wallaby jersey in a long time. Even in the England game he squandered a couple of opportunities for tries with front foot ball.

Deans gets ARU backing before crucial year

They will never take the NRL on with a cash war because they will have every other nation puttting out there hands. The IRB might have more money but once divided among all its many nations, it will come short compared to the NRL. If the ARU dont care about the NRL using its 100million dedicated on growing the game against them as u suggest, Rugby in Aus is about to become alot worst off than it is now. The

NRL coach Smith joins Brumbies

Tell me what IRB can do? Seriously i wanna know. Unless they are willing to match the sort of cash the NRL pull in, im sure there isnt much more they can do.

NRL coach Smith joins Brumbies

If they keep poking at the hornets nest they might find themselves severely stung one day. I always thought the Brumbies had to be careful who they recruit from the NRL after Bedsy and i think they done well with Smith. The NRL are very paranoid atm with the AFL wars and we will see if they have seen the Folau move as an act of war.

NRL coach Smith joins Brumbies

Big time 100% agreed. Folau will be back to the NRL with his tail betweeen his legs like the rest of them.

Quade's baaaccckkk!!! And his Wallaby mates aren't happy

Ill put up what ever you do should the fight happen betweeen Pacman and Mayweather. If not for that lucky punch from Marquez, Pacman had him covered in every area.

Marquez vs Pacquiao: Has Marquez demolished Pacquiao vs Mayweather?

Also WTH has Nz n Sa being constant No1″s in the sport gotta do with the present aspirations of the Wallabies wanting to be fhe best? Mentality like this will only hold us back.

I have a feeling the boys said ” f this Deans game plan, lets use this last 10 mins and play whats in front of us for Sharpy”

Bazza why would u hold younger rugby fans knowledge against him? If more dinosaurs like yourself keep criticising younger fans knowledge of the game, potential new rugby fans would be too intimidated to share there opiions on the sport. If 25years is juvenile, what the hell will you think of the new fans should the ARU grow n expand. With critical old men on there rugby knowledge high horses on roar, i will reconsider sharing my “juvenile” thoughts on roar as a new fan of Rugby being a hardcore Leaguie all my life.
