The trouble last year was what they considered a dangerous tackle.

I still remember that ridiculous game last year against the warriors.

1000 unjustifiable penalties and a criminal sin bin on Iro because DWZ is a weak **** that kept getting belted due to his own uselessness....

I'm never gonna get over that game - that ref should've been shot dead.

As a football fan in this country, I can vouch for that. In Australia you need about four different streaming services to be able to watch all the top football plus the local product.
Optus Sports: English Premier League
Stan Sports: Champions League/Europa League
Paramount plus: A-League, FA Cup, Carabao Cup, FFA Cup, Asian Champions League.
BeIN Sports: La Liga, Serie A, SPL.

This is the trend sport is going in and someone has to do something about it because it will end up being a disaster for the average sports fan.
I'm not interested ( or interested enough) in a lot of sports, but I need 4 different subscriptions just to watch what I enjoy. That's not taking into account movies, docos, etc.. I know there are packages to get all your subscriptions rolled into one payment plan but it doesn't make it cheaper, just easier to pay. Still a lot of sports fans in general just can't afford it.

I remember when it was Channel 7s Sunday League, a one hour show of the main game on Sunday night called by Rex Mossop.

I also remember the ABC match of the day on Saturday's in the 1970s with John O'Reilly calling the game along with Reg Gasnier.
Rex was commentating when I first started being interested in League, but I can't remember what channel, 7 maybe ? Late 70s.

Are Round 4 GA tickets (Dogs home game) sold out?

Have a work trip end of March and will be there that weekend.

A couple of the ladies that I work with want to go to an NRL game so was looking to get them to the Sharks game

Otherwise will have to go to a “neutral” game.
Neutral game ? Just take them to the night club where you do your part time stripper gig. Just don't take them the night your working haha.
