In the hard copy, which cost money to print it won't even get a 1/4 page...no one cares in the UK...SIMPLE AS. It is one of the reasons league struggles....the bias of the press towards union.
Call me a troll all you like......I am still 100% Spot on accurate and you telling me about media (my industry) in England (where I made my money) just shows you up for what you are......a c()nt.

Back on thread please or stop trying to deflect from the fact that your so called suuuppppper doooper NRL is in fact, fiction. Your champs are cheats and instead of trying to look clever, you just come across as a tw at

A drunk troll.

Have you ever seen anything more pathetic?

It seems the talk of no mates forced him onto the drink by himself.

Actually...yes. A knowall who thinks he's a knowitall.......namely you.
the London press will give this more than a cursory mention. League doesn't exist according to the UK media in general. Regional editions (M62 CORRIDOR) will maybe carry more, but the rest of the country will only care about the prospect of liverpool v fulham in a european final.
don't be c()nt all your life.....you are way out of your depth on this subject....it's what I do for a living and we use real calculators that give real figures....not your teletubbie ones you use to attract dally to you like a fly to shi7.
See....even pi55ed I can show you up you bitter little penis

50 lines seems closer...

the storm got off lightly huh?

theres probably no coke left in the rest of NZ!

plus he had to save some for his mates in the pub!

At least he is funnier flogged.

yes. they should be removed from the comp for 2 years....unless you want to condone cheating.....oh, hang on, it's in your blood isn't it....so let's just hit them for some of the money they made attracting new fans selling shirts and generally making the game a laughing stock.

To other trolls:-

Take note of how far guttertroll has fallen and take heed.

We may have to pay for his counselling at this rate...

Personally I fell sorry for the fans. The clubs management have screwed them all. Maybe it is time for a fan buyout? At the very least time for board to go...

Way too tough.

Strip them of their titles, fine them, penalise them 10 points this year but don't expect a side to play the year out with no points available to them. Why would the fans bother to turn up? What do the players have to play for?

Gallop is a fool.

Anyone who thinks they got off lightly has brains made of the stuff that dogs make brown curly things on the grass with...

I must say I agree with that EA.

That is the point I have been trying to convey.

NO-ONE is crazy enough to pay $100 to go the footy for no reason whatsoever.

What about that wipe Waldron?

Jumps ship to Union right before the hits the fan?

Union have bought a good 'un there. Does the super duper 14 have a salary cap?

Absolutely.

I'm struggling to understand why they would make them play the year out without hope of earning a point. There is no gain for the NRL in doing them, not for them, The Storm or any other NRL side, no fans, no one benefits. All it does is harm.

Pointless.

I hate the frigging Storm but this is just way over the top.

Waldron an AFL plant?

He'll be a bitch to whoever killed Fatboy soon...

Waldron was the CEO through all the cap rorting.

Apparently there is talk of the police now being involved and I hope that mongrel gets his comeuppance.

definitely, merkin

dissagree EA.

they have $700,000 of players this year they shouldnt have.

why should other teams who arent cheating have to compete with that.

cameron smith misses the 07 grand final and they get belted by manly

they created this problem

will the players have to take a pay cut, or will a number of players get released?whats happened has happened, but if they play this week with a full sqad, and win , will the opposition have a case to claim the 2 points? as they are playing players who are earning more than the allowances

I can understand that point of view too, DM.

It really is a mess.

But honestly, it will not do the NRL any good for the Storm's crowd average to drop from, what, an excellent figure of not much under 20,000 so far this year to 3,000.

It's throwing the baby out with the bathwater.

If it were a team not struggling on foreign soil, I'd agree. the Dogs got what they deserved but the game as a whole didn't suffer all that much.

It will now.

Waldron need to be publicly castrated but I hope the Rebels keep him, the bloke stinks to high hell, his name is and should be mud forever. If the Rebels keep him, they'll be a stuffed as the Storm...

Funny how Demetriou was quick to say the AFL would bring in similar measures in a similar event...

Of course history shows they don't have the cojones.

Enter Pratt and Carlton for an example of a no point deduction.
