    haha... as you as you start talking about the West of Sydney, cate gets fired up haha...

    It's a funny one re: North of Sydney needing a football team, they do, but the league landscape in Sydney/NSW is full.

    Personally I think Brisbane needs a 2nd team as the Broncos get to tap into all of Brisbanes juniors. That's why historically they've been such a strong team.

    Also Western Australia needs a team. For it to be a National competition, a team over there can be backed by some mining people. And Western Australians actually like Rugby League.. If you were to say 20 years ago there would be either a successful rugby league team in either W.A or Victoria, I would hazard a guess that most people would say Western Australia... Sure the Western Reds failed. But that was when Rugby League was run by men with cauliflowered ears. These days, it is more of a business, and I would say that it would be successful

    And as for my tattoo... you're just jealous Souths aren't in it...

    PS, don't know if I said this, but I've got 2nd row tickets to the granny on Sunday... boo yeah!

    pfft im not jealous... :roll: its a hideous tattoo and you know it. :P

    brisbane had a second team, remember? and whilst i dont advocate an expansion to western australia id support that before id support a team from an entirely different country.funny how you think a western australian franchise is necessary for it to be a trully national comp. what about the northern territory or tasmania??? neither of those even have an AFL team, theyd be perfect. i also think the central coast can support a team. theyve got everything in place. juniors, a massive fan base, an excellent stadium in bluetongue. and yes as a souths fan i am fully aware that the game is now more of a business. ;)

    oh and while im having a constructive bitch... hows about we keep ALL state of origin matches in the states of origin.

    Yes, agree about state of origin...

    But refer to my previous point about men with cauliflowered ears running ARL before re South Qld crusher.

    I know Brisbane is smaller than Sydney, but imagine this...

    Sydney having one team... and being able to choose from all the junior competitions. To develop them from a young age. It's not fair tbh. Brisbane are on a bit of a dip atm , but they have some talented kids.They pick the cream before any other team gets a look in. It's no wonder, that historically the broncos have the majority of origin representatives. Obviously exceptions to the rule with smith, cronk and slater etc

    Brisbane have missed just one final series since I can remember.. .I just looked it up, that was 2010 they finished 10th. In 1988 (their inception), and 1991, they came 7th. Now I think it was a top 5 system back then. So that's 3 finals they've missed in 24 years and won 6 premierships... One every 4 years. There is no other club with a record like that.

    Storm have missed 3 times, and they've been around for 13 years for one premiership (yes, I have taken two off them hahah)

    Why are the Broncos able to do this? Because they pick the best of the best..

    I had a nice moment with Cameron Smith last night...

    I was front row, and hung around for the lap...

    Anyway, Smith is shaking peoples hands etc, I'm there in my doggies jersey and here is our exchange

    Me: Well done Cam (he cuts me off)
    Cam: Thanks for hanging around
    me: Well done, you were bound to win a premiership sooner or later

    HE then hung on to my hand tugged it a bit laughing his arse off... It was nice...

    Then I said the same thing to Belly Ache.. I don't think he got it like Cam did cause he said

    'Thanks mate, I really appreciate that... I do'

    They seemed nice guys...

    Sisa Waqa father was next to me at the lap.. I have never seen anyone so prouder... They could have turned the lights of at ANZ and his smile and eyes would have lit it up... Anyway, a lot of the players came around and hugged him.. I got a few good snaps, including one of Sisa's premiership ring...

    No we don't :nono: Kids here don't play rugby and 'mining people' are only interested in holes in the ground.

    oh, and the AFL needs to revive this ad :)

    Watching channel 9's coverage made me sick.
    They were so biased.
    You could tell noone there was happy that Melbourne won, except Storm fans and players/coach/staff.
    Try take this one off us now jerks.
    GO STORM!

    P.S. what a bunch of ferals Bulldogs fans are, saw on the news, two 17 y.o girls fighting with cops outside the Leagues club and guys getting arrested. Pigs.
    And what an animal that Bulldogs player that bit Slater's ear is, ban him for the season.
