Completely forgot to mention I went to Origin game 1 .
We went as a work group and everything was laid on. Sat next to a massive bogan who was good value but unfortunately grabbed my head and kissed me on the cheek when Gagai scored.
Still great experience with only the 30min wait to get out of the parking garage being the low point of the night.
Suncorp is still the best footy stadium Ive been to.
Going to Boganpalooza was always on my theoretical sporting bucket list, but as I haven't watched in about 10 years I haven't been interested, but thought I might go to the final match this year. Tickets were available and reasonable. But I have a bloody presentation at a staff meeting that night.
It may remain unfulfilled. But maybe I should try get to a Suncorp one next year after reading your post.
only in fucking Sydney would a workplace dare schedule something on Origin night. You fluffybunnies just don't get it.

I doubt anyone in my workplace knows it's on - even my new Aussie minion, who's from Townsville but weirdly isn't bogan (my mate from Townsville reckons he's not a true Townsvillian as she didn't recognise his last name as a local bogan name) and speaks enough Chinese to translate arguments for me probably doesn't even know it's on.
Enough with this you business - not all of us have Stockholm Syndrome.

This does not compute

I pay my taxes, no need to also sell my soul to the devil at the same time.

@mariner4life their formula to success is a pretty simple one , and maybe being based in Melbourne watching how the afl clubs go about it has something to do with it , I’m amazed others don’t copy it , maybe they just lack the patience and want an instant fix .
But it’s sign the best 17 year old kids on the market , putting heaps of coaching development into them getting them ready .
While others are chasing the big names on the market , they are mostly locking up the signatures of talented kids .
That’s where their production line comes from .
-
@kiwiinmelb yep, and for some reason, fans fucking hate them for it. it's genuinely retarded. Especially when you look at the absolute shit some clubs are left in by signing at the top end.

Just read a game thread from last night, NRL fans and their attitude to the Storm sort of amuses me.
To read any thread, you would think they are the only team that wrestles/ the grubbiest team in the comp/are part of an NRL conspiracy to help them. It's fucking bizarre. Then someone will bring up the salary cap thing, and then sort of suggest they are still over it, despite their team being full of absolute nobodies.
Then it starts on Cam Smith being shit. Bellamy being shit. It's amazing to me a team plays the prelim at least every year with a shit coach.
I have no particular love for the Storm, probably mainly because they are always at the pointy end. But the shit they cop, mainly from Sydney fans of crap clubs is amazing. I don't even really hold the cap thing against them, as it was basically them trying to hold on to gun players they developed.
They never sign superstars. In fact they are never in the market for them. When was the last time you heard a "Latrell to the Storm" type rumour? They either develop their own, or they take spuds, off-casts, and rejects from other clubs, and turn them in to GF-standard players. They are a model club, and yet all they cop is shit for it. The fact they are more hated than the Roosters astounds me
It wouldn't matter where they were located, they'd be hated because of their success.

One of the better sporting events I've been to and the only game of league I've ever attended (I watch the warriors every now and then, and usually watch the kiwis, but generally dont like the game).
Even though the actual game was pretty boring, standing on Caxton street when the NSW bus rolled past and experiencing the hate was quite incredible.... people were actually throwing glass bottles and trying to smash the windows.
-
Crazy ending.
-
Yipppppeeeeeeeeee
-
The only thing more unpredictable than the Warriors is the NRL referees.
-
-
Fuck check those refs bank accounts/TAB accounts. That was cheating at its finest. Didnt even hide it.
-
Warriors overcome the worst 2nd half reffing that has ever happened in the NRL and that's saying something.
Even Newcastle lad Brett Finch thought the refs were having a laugh when Hiku was knocked out cold and they allowed the game to continue several more plays until the Knights scored.
Maumalo scores a try that the Bunker (and only the Bunker) thought wasn't a try and Passi is sent off for making the game-saving tackle with no time on the clock.
A fucking joke this competition.

Cronulla coach pulls his Johnson during loss to Brisbane.
https://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/league/114063710/nrl-shaun-johnson-pulled-with-sharks-game-on-the-line
Warriors may be having a mediocre season but looks like they dodge a bullet by releasing Johnson instead of extending his contract.
-
Welcome to the rocks and diamonds show!! Something we 'enjoyed' for many years. When he's on he is pure fire, but when he ain't...
Was he ever pulled at the Warriors? can't recall that happening from memory. Plus I guess you've got to have someone to actually replace him with lol
