GO THE EELS

[pixelboy]

I am going for Melbourne FWIW as they deserve it as they have been the best for the last 2 years.....

And you call yourself new south welshman ??

Bloddy Melbourne and Brisbane are News Ltd lap dogs... pffft

Sea Eagles are gunna kick their franchise arse back to mexico!!

If so, how could Brisbane have 3/4 of the Australian Team and 90% of the Qld Origin team playing for them and still be under the cap??

There is a couple of reasons why Brisbane can do it. One is that it is cheaper to live in Brisbane than Sydney, so really they don't need to pay them as much for them to come out on top. Two that there is only the one team in Brisbane, so if people don't want to move from Brisbane they will stay at Brisbane.

Ah... note the after my statement- especially in regard to the 'salary cap.'

I saw it, just the Broncos get up my goat. They've been cheating for years IMO.

If that's the case, Newcastle should win every year. Cheap houses, great beaches.....and the ladies

Hey pixelboy, you know the backflips that Choc Mundine used to do after a try, he's got nuthin'....."Go the Eagles"

I watched the Breakfast speeches and the Footy Show last night and I thought Melbourne looked a little smug, stuff 'em, Go Manly (Geez that hurts)

Wouldn't mind Steve Menzies getting another premiership either

Cheers
