The Roosters -NRL marriage break-up

[Back to Back]

What do people think.In the last few months there appears to be jibes thrown mainly from the Roosters camp towards the nrl.Gould has had a number of shots towards the nrl administration on a number of issues and Politis also to a lesser extent has fired some pot shots.

Has their been some friction at a deeper level and the cracks are appearing now through these jibes.

Is the pressure getting to the Roosters not winning a competition for 30 years when all teams are in the competition.

Maybe I am wrong but I think the "very close" relationship between the two parties over the last 4 years is not so close anymore.

There is an apparent rift between Gould and Annesley but I get a feeling that the Roosters have had some run-ins with the nrl as well.

I think most of it has started with the ridiculous cap concessions they were trying to get.Maybe the nrl told them to wake up as there has been rumours all along about them.Now they are simply being arrogant and disrespectful.

Maybe I am so wrong on this.Do people agree or disagree.

All an act my friend.

Put on a show for the cameras.

Like you said "there have been rumours"

Meh, My opinion anyway.

 

[(((((SMACK)))))]

There is only on Rooster ruffling feathers and that is Gould!

This is all an act to throw off the average supporter, everyone knows that the NRL bends over for the roosters, so they think if they have a "lovers tiff" it would fool us to say they are rorting it together.

Where the hell was roosters before Gayvid Gallop came into the story? The last time they won anything was back in 1975.

Don't read into it, the NRL dreams and hopes to promote roosters as the premiers, bench mark and generally the clean cut & most professionally run side in the league. They want the roosters to take on new york yankee like status in australia and around the world, they want to promote brad fittler as the babe ruth of the sport. The bulldogs on the other hand are the stone cold steve austin on wwe with the nrl being Vince Mcmahan - they will stop at nothing to see the dogs fail however we constantly prosper none the less.

Tha is the most spot on summary ive heard about the NRL in a while.

the nrl do not want one side to win it every year.

 

[Anastabation]

the nrl do not want one side to win it every year.

They didn't consider the penrith win a disaster, infact they probably were pleased with the result, add a bit of variaton. But they would of been devestated beyond belief after this years result, a point further emphasised by David Gallops post grand final speech.
