Courier Mail up to their old tricks

[Papa Emeritus]

I really hope one of our papers fire back.

I mean I know this just proves they are scared of our halves but we shouldn't just be copping this without firing some back.

 

[Boldslug]

Sydney newspaper story writers (I can't use the term journalists) are too intent on negative stories on our own teams and rugby league in general. Trying to actually promote NSW over Qld is beyond their capacity.

 

[Matty]

Hope Laurie Daley hangs this up on their lockers before origin 1. As if they didn't have enough motivation this should really do it...

 

[S4Sonny]

The Sydney papers would steal their headlines with the amount of shit we've copped over the years for no apparent reason

 

[mearsey]

Lol the Courier Snail , the Womens Weekly has better league writers

 

[GrogDog]

I can honestly say as a qlder that this does not echo the majority sentiment of qlder's and am personally spewin they did it, last thing we want to give is NSW extra motivation. We would definitely have wanted the usual duds selected in the halves. Media north and south of the border all suck big hairy balls and I think this is the best team NSW have selected in a lot of years and I am nervous. The NRL have also put tickets up beyond reasonable and for the first time in quite awhile (if ever) SOO1 is still not sold out. I went to get some tickets and the cheap ones at $80 dollars were sold out but the next best were around $180, $240 and $300 odd bucks hence why they are still for sale. Footy HQ taking fans for granted as always I'm afraid!

 

[Nano]

**** me seriously? I hope the boys are revved up even more now

 

[Psycho Doggie]

Wow their sub-editor totes nailed that headline!

 

[c-b-b]

I looked up the courier mail to read the article attached to this - I don't know if it's the same one but there's something saying Daley hasn't ruled out Pearce returning this series - is he serious, they haven't even played a game and he not backing them 100% - the article should be about Daley the Dud.

On another note there's also an article in the paper about Mal's brother being released after 21 years jail.

As I said in the other thread hopefully it will come to "bite" them in the end!

You have to admit GD every year at origin time the Courier Snail ramps up the gutter talk , as a proud Blue who loves living in Sth East Qld it just fires us up even more ! That image of Gallen smashing Nate ( the dump ) Myles makes us happy

 

[Slick]

Don't worry about that guys.

On the Microsoft Word of the QLD papers, they don't have the word Dogs as they're too afraid for us to be on their computers, and, naturally, their autocorrect matched it to a word they often use when describing their rugby league teams.

That's why I hate it mate, no need to give extra ammunition. Just say nothing, turn up and play. You must be referring to the dog shot Gallen done which Myles just took and looked back at him unaffected by?

Farout $80 to $300 to watch a game of footy at the venue? What have the NRL come to rofl, you can sit at home with everything you need and watch it on Channel 9 or a stream...

 

[K E]

Those "duds" are leading the comp. Fck Queensland and the floods.

 

[Bry]

The irony of a dud newspaper calling the halves who have steered their club side to the top of the table "Duds".

They should boycott interviews with the Dud "journo's" who thought this was a good idea. Have they played Rugby League at a high level let alone represent their state? I can't wait for the day when a journo cops a hiding from a fired up player for putting out offensive shit like this.

 

[Ahecee]

NSW halves pairing are 1st on the ladder, QLD's are 5th and 8th (and..... Broncos are 11th btw QLD, so... yeh, good headline)

Hope they keep talking it up, Reynolds should enjoy that, and I do believe Hodkinson showed how he can be expected to react to being given shit in the Dragons game.... neither of these two need more motivation, but if they want to give it, great.

Yeah I know, some of the dearer ones were "obstructed viewing" too. Watching SOO at Lang Park though is an experience worth going too but I grew up going to the games in the 80's so I have been to heaps. I was at the famous beer can shower game! They miscalculated this year though as the radio stations now are flogging off heaps of tickets on air lol.

Amen brother!!
