they probably will lose 1 star but its possible to keep the big names by restucturing deals and losing fringe players

canberra lost glen lazarus

the dogs lost a stack of players from roy asotasi to steve price, braith anasta

we need an attacking centre, so well take inglis

typical AFL?

when RL is getting all the media he tries to jump in and mention AFL.

gallops leadership is showing here.

we will have slater then lol

I worked for Richard Pratt when I was a kid, at Visyboard Warwick Farm.

I don't normally speak ill of the dead but he will forever be the only exception.

The day he croaked was a good day.

I disagree, he isn't moving to assist the game in any way, shape or form and [ithat [/iis his job. Making the Storm play for no points for the rest of the season is ludicrous and could have been easily sorted in a way that kept the fans reasonably happy. the fans are the most important thing and always will be.

He is doing what News have told him to do.

He should go immediately.

On a side note, I'll bet LU is in meltdown...

the dogs thing was a precedent.

you cant go easy on them just because they are an expansion team

if he had, the dogs fans wouldve burnt down foxstudios

i like him being tough

the storm arent the only club cheating

How desperate were the Storm for success? I feel sorry for the fans who have pretty much no reason to turn up and watch the Storm this season and maybe a few will not bother coming back all together.

Another bad day for Rugby league and plenty of ammo for union trolls and journalists now because this i must say is much worse than bloodgate.

At least tough action has been taken, maybe if the cap was to go up there would be less reason to cheat it.

Seems harsh - why does this keep happening in the NRL?

If I were the Storm I would simply pull out of the league for a year - recharge their batteries and come back next year - no point playing and training for nothing?

The problem is this will harm the Storm possibly into collapse - but on the flip side it might give some of the Sydney sides a chance



You might be able to take the trophies off the club but you will never be able to take the memories of their fans and those of their opponents in the various GFs

maybe in your country

in our country its saturation media coverage for the countries biggest sport

our leader comes across as strong and fair.

everyone in australia will be talking league for weeks

other sports might as well pack it up for a bit

This is really going to hurt the AFL in Victoria - not

Another troll limps in...





Watch out you don't do a gutterfax and begin dribbling incoherently.

Maybe you should attend a few games - then the diatribe you post might improve - forgot you can't, visiting all the art gallaries

- grow up and get a life

"Gallaries"...

The deterioration has already set in...

lol, LU did melt down about 40 times today, there's still about 800/900 people on there or trying to get on there.

And also, the RL section at big footy had about 400 people in that section for about 4 hours.



According to them, the AFL footy show is all RL, I also listened to that Vic radio station Sen that is non stop AFL, not today, it was all storm



Massive massive news.

And not to forget planetvichy, they're all over this gloating, those cockks make me sick, I hate seeing any sporting club die in any sport even if I don't like the sport as it effects the fans, they truly are a bunch of merkins.

Excuse me a second while I spit my coffee everywhere with laughter.

If a rugby team went to the wall, youd love it. Dont lie and say you wouldnt, you know you would, so dont have a go at the rugby fans for laughing at a rugby lite team cheating.

Rugby lite...

Another troll self outing.

Listen f@ckwit, I hate it when any code loses a club that has a long proud history, if a franchise dies after 2/3/4/5/6/7/8/9 years because they have no support, too bad, they weren't loved enough.

That's the difference knobbhead.

If the AFL club die in W Sydney in a few seasons, too bad as that club wasn't wanted in the first place, it was forced onto people, but I'd hate to see an old club with good support die because it hurts the fans.

I'd hate my club to die, why would I want others to feel that.

You're a complete f@cking spanker, I'm not in the best mood after what's happened today, but you thinking you know me and what I think has piised me right off.

[size=200=#FF0000MERKIN[/size

Actually, I'd love it if you went to the wall Stewie, literally

Don't worry about him eels.

The Rebels are a joke and he knows it. They are also missing a CEO or will be presently.

He also has to put up with the fact his code is worth about $145 million per nation as of today...

And the NZRU lost $16 million in 2009.

That's the thing, I have no problem with the Union, I used to watch quite a bit, it's the f@cking people who support and run it I hate, they are a complete bunch of up themselves T@SSERS.

There there, dont cry mate

Waldron.

Still on the board of Melbourne Rebels.

I think he will be sacked by the end of the day!

Don't get hit by a truck within the next week mate, I'd be devastated.
