MARYROSE02 Posted June 5, 2013 Author Share Posted June 5, 2013 Chris Smith had Tommy Radonakous talking about Origin and he said to Tom "I am giving you a minute air time to imagine you are talking to the NSW team before the game." Beeping beep Queensland beep beeping beep. He lives in QLD too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest GeorgeD Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 Typical PB arrogance You've lost me. On several counts... 1) What does Perthbum have to do with anything? 2) If it is a reference to Pommy Barstewards...I am not a Pom, never have been and never wil be 3) I was supporting Australia. I cheered when Australia went ahead 4) I read the review of the Japan-Australia game on the ABC website this morning. In the Football section. The Origin games are covered in the NRL section. Incidentally, Japan are the highest FIFA ranked Football team in AsiaPac, so a draw in Japan in a World Cup Qualifier is actually a really good result for Australia, and it was an entertining football spectacle for all viewers. So yeah...I'm a bit confused why you're so upset... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rugby Lad Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 <Guilty pleasure> I quite like 9's RL commentators/pundits. Much better than Fox Sports ones </Guilty pleasure> I don't mind them either (except Hadley), I actually really like Gould, but the cross-promotion (stay tuned for the Block where they'll be........), the odds being spruiked and the ads do my head in so I listen to the ABC. Saying that found out how hard all that stuff is this morning. Filmed an advert that's going to be shown on Imparja and WIN during the Footy Show, Friday Night Football, Sunday Footy Show and Sunday Football for the rest of the season. I could use the excuse that I didn't know I was going to do it, I was working all night and driving home at 0830 this morning got stopped and told "go home and get changed, we're filming down at the Oval". But in reality I was just terrible at it. I'm not going to take the piss out of those crappy Aus ads any more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harpodom Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 I stand suitably corrected and besmirched. For a while I thought you were just being a typical arrogant PB. I forgive you for following girlyball, but only because you said such nice things about Australia. You've lost me. On several counts... 1) What does Perthbum have to do with anything? 2) If it is a reference to Pommy Barstewards...I am not a Pom, never have been and never wil be 3) I was supporting Australia.

gpo1971 Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 Good game. NSW pack was awesome. No way Thurston was 100%. Still, I was half expecting them to pull it off. Sets the series up nicely, needed a NSW win to open IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
northshorepom Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 :jiggy: Whole NSW pack superb but especially Greg Bird and Luke Lewis :notworthy: Ferguson and Maloney rock solid and occasionally dangerous on debut. Hayne unbelievable dynamic. Too many handling errors but no real weak links Superb! Wish I could have been there (should have been but as per previous, gave ticket away) I have tickets for Game 3 now though. I hope it's a dead rubber by then....
