Scary to think the Roosters were missing Egan Butcher, Dom Young, Billy Smith, JWH and Angus Crighton.

Yeah they had the camera mainly on Mamm so thought the focus was all on him with what happened. Took them a few minutes to actually clarify what had happened.

Kayo’s coverage for both games was absolutely terrible. So many glitches, pauses etc.. they need to sort there **** out and fast.
I turned the first game off there was no point. My friends were talking about tries being scored and minutes later I seen them.

Second game channel 9 thank goodness

No Mam made a complain against Spencer Leniu for a racial remark
Spencer is on report
Or as someone else put it
Looks like the latte called the long black a dark roast tbh
Leniu said how many premiership rings do you have to Ezra.

Just listened to the feed through Adam Gee.

Apparently Leniu called him a monkey after Mamm said something at him.

So, the Matty John’s show starts, not that I’m a huge fan, and they’re interviewing Sam Walker when Brandon Smith just walks up and gives Matty John’s a bear hug and starts doing the same to everyone else and interrupting what’s being said.

What sort of ******* does that on live television?
Same sort that do **** behind or to reporters in front of a camera any other time I guess.
Just cos BS plays sport for his coin doesn’t make him less ********ish than you average Joe (did I get the right amount of “*” in there ?)

NRL will say yes
I’d have liked to see another 10,000 or so

Got more to Optus (oval stadium) to watch two games in WA last year
40k is not that much more than what would have turned up if they played those games here.
20-25 in Brisbane
10-15 in Sydney

Given the expense at taking the game over there, plus the coin they would have invested to promote, I would have wanted 60-65+ at the games

I reckon the majority of the 40 that did turn up are likely expats and or freebies handed out, so I reckon it falls short (unless the NRL won some sponsorship $$$ or solid contacts that leads to $$$).

Perhaps on the ambitious side given the superbowl had like 62,000 there

MJ called him over. They're great mates. I think Brandon lived with MJ when moving to Sydney.
