Well........he’s not wrong. I do actually chuckle a bit when we go around calling other teams niggly and dirty considering the hypocrisy of it al.

 

[CrazyMatt]

Can you explain how he "corrupted the playing group". (Your opinion) Did that prevent Cronulla from being successful this year? Or would you rather have cretins down at the pub pissing into their mouths so that other imbeciles can take pictures and post them up on social media and bring the club into disrepute. I suppose you would knowing some Cronulla 'fans'.

I don't know why you feel the need to attack Paulo's beliefs, the bloke has been nothing but good for the club and given 100% in every game that he has played for Cronulla. What he believes in whether he's Atheist, Christian, Muslim, or Buddhist is irrelevant, and whether or not he chose to talk to other players about his beliefs is not anyone's business but for those players-I am sure they can make up their own minds. However, I am sure you wouldn't be talking at all if he was talking about his Atheist beliefs or how he drank 12 schooners down at the pub and then spewed on the footpath, right. But because he is a Christian he must be attacked. "Corrupted the playing group with Hillsong", yet we're one game away from a Grand Final-what absolute codswallop.

Maybe you should take time out to attempt talk to him one day rather than base your opinions on your hatred of his beliefs. Paulo is a top bloke and an absolute champion, one that has given his all for Cronulla Sutherland RLFC.

Mate. He was ****ing joking. Calm down. He ****ing reeled you in nicely.

haha

 

[Sir Chadley]

Can't believe old mate fell for that. Well, actually, yes I can.

Well done HB. You got yourself another victim.

 

[Steve Kneen]

Mate. He was ****ing joking. Calm down. He ****ing reeled you in nicely.

It looks like BS when he says "Hillsong bull****" and "corrupted the playing group", right.....

Mate he was referring to a post by a Parramatta troll Honey Badger when we first got Paulo. Honey Badger said that Paulo was right into Hillsong and he would corrupt our playing group.
HB was just having some fun with that. He's actually a big fan of Paulo's and meant nothing horrible by it.

I think you'll find 99% of this forum would have understood that joke.

Like Crazy Matt says, calm down, it is all innocent fun.

 

[Steve Kneen]

Will be glad to see the back of him. Has corrupted the playing group with Hillsong bull**** for long enough.

Actually I heard that there will be a church service held this week and pray for divine intervention so that Gerard Sutton does not rort Cronulla. Joseph Paulo will lead the sermon and then they will sing some Hillsong hymns, do sing along.

Amazing what you miss when you step out for a liquid lunch.

And the plan is finally made clear!!! Flano and co were jabbing at storm all week until Bellamy finally broke and started slagging us, at the last minute flano plays the innocent card and talks about how much respect we have for them. Now the two final press conferences we have for both teams paint this picture:

Storm: sharks are grubs
Sharks: we respect the storm

Well played flano, well played

In terms of 'niggling' it's probably pretty equal, but Storm win easily when it comes to intentionally targeting players limbs and neck with an intent to cause significant pain and discomfort if not worse. I doubt any NRL fan or team would point the finger at anyone other than Storm for that.

Now if only Referee Smith can get himself 10 minutes again...

Yep. 100% correct.

 

[slide rule]

Our tackles will be watched by the refs but theirs wont.

One of our players will have an arm torn off and the refs won't see it.

Danny Weidler reporting that Gal is out of tomorrow’s game.

 

[Addy]

If Gal is ruled out, I hope he still rocks up to the coin toss just to **** with Smith's head
