Cronk just needs to get on with it and ignore any media scrutiny. I know to a point the media is his platform but really coming across as a soon who feels the need to justify everything. He's not used to criticism and mite b starting to realise not everybody agrees w him or actually likes him...

Was the tag show any good? I know one of the taggers (or whatever they are calling them)

I thought it was a bit ok. Reminded me a bit of Gladiators from the 90’s. They’ve given all the pro taggers (playing the “Gladiator” role that challengers have to beat) ridiculous names like Riot and Dominator, one blokes even painted his hair metallic silver and made himself look like a knob, it’s cringe as **** but **** me it looks like fun to do the courses. Incredible athletes.

Egg buddy, I think you need to check your spelling before you take a crack at too many jouno's

What do you mean son of Chad ?
They don't deserve an R
R is for Respect
They're not actually Journo's :)

You gotta trim off a bit of **** sometimes but the bloke knows the game inside out.

Exactly. Like you said he does push his own barrow at times but it's obvious, easy to ignore.

Can't think of too many who have played, coached and been in admin.

Gus without an agenda is the GOAT

bit like Andrew Johns when he isn't pretending he's still in high school playing up to da boyz he's actually quite articulate and insightful to half back play

Tallis is a knob head and slurs his speech like he's having a stroke (has never said a good word about the sharks either). I don't actually mind Wally though even if he doesn't bring much insight i find him likable as an ex player, everyone has some degree of bias

Gal is still honing his media craft but is under rated

I respect Sterlo the most, he deserves better than the buffoons the networks pair him up with

his twitter persona for a start - if you disagree with him in the slightest or constructively criticise his article he immediately blocks you, then quotes your tweet letting people know he is blocking you

i get there are **** heads on socials, but a few people have been done by him asking further questions to his article

he also hangs around coffee shops in caringbah and runs to players for a chat then cracks the ****s when he doesnt give them the time of day

sounds like he's adopted jimbobs old bakery strategy

what's the go with Riccio getting the Robbo hair cut?

Yeah I like Joey, he obviously knows his **** back-to-front come RL. Bit like Gus except ya trim a different sort of bull**** off. Freddy is similar.

I've had the pleasure to have beers with Gordie a couple times & he's a champion bloke. Don't rate him for **** in the media.

Agree on Gal. Happy to be hated so will give an unpopular opinion or opinion no one else in media will.

Sterlo bores me stupid now.

Still see people carrying on about the fact he called them the worst Qld team ever or whatever like it was some dumb opinion he should have kept to himself.
He's explained (and even included in a book) how he was paid to promote origin during his career, why the **** do people think he would stop now that it is even more his job than before.
That comment built more interest around origin than anything. It's not his job to try and baby NSW to a win, it's his job to promote the game and he did that excellently.
Also does a fantastic job building his profile to keep the boxing $ rolling in.

Bit Mundine-ish. Cashing in on the haters.
