The Rugby Football League are in the process of reviewing the video that you are referring to. We do not condone behaviour of this nature and have contacted the player’s employer, Hull F.C., who have confirmed that they are dealing with the incident under their club rules.

Not really, since you and Katie got banned it's been pretty quite.

Carney well spoken????!!!!!
He sounds like an extra off Father Ted. I expect him to say 'Down with this sort of thing' or 'Careful now' at any second. |

Your job is to say to yourself on a job interview does the hiring manager likes me or not. If you aren't a particular manager's cup of tea, you haven't failed -- you've dodged a bullet.:icons077e_files/5454-3678dentheman-msnicons.jpg |

The funniest things, Ennis' attempt at a pass with a 3 man overlap, Gasnier's hit by Boyd x2 and Gallen's inability to read a very simple inside pass that Nosterdamus would have seen coming.
The sycophantic commentary of Gould and Warren ruined it for me - the RL guys in Australia are so insecure. Origin is a great concept but if you listened to these guys you would think it was bigger than NFL, Champions League, NBA combined!! talked about over-hyped.
40m Americans watching a game they have never heard of - some people need a reality check - only 3m Aussies watched it.

Agreed, when was the last good anthem? I heard the FA Cup Final one and it sounded like a karaoke singer.
Quote: dally messenger "Quote: dally messenger "I refuse to watch anything that has Brian Carney presenting it. I recorded the game and fast forwarded the bits with him in it.
'"
Carney is now the best pundit/presenter that sky have for rugby league. Well spoken, presents the game without bias or repetitive stupidity (stevo).
That said, sack them off or just let Carney bring in the coverage to hand over to 9. Wells has had a shocker when ever he has had his 10 seconds having to go to his clip board, getting names wrong or calling the Thurston on Uate strip a poor carry.'"
I like Carney too, think Carney, Wells and Cullen are the best three on SKY now. |

Carney and Wells - Cullen just quotes catch phrases from an Aussie coaching manual. |

I don't mind him, at least there's someone who actually looks at a part of the game other than players scoring, that's all we ever seem to see highlights of other than when Cullens on.

Other sports 'big themselves up" and it's called spin, RL does it and it's perfectly OK ![]()
Spin, hype, whatever. It is their job to promote the sport. They do it wonderfully. Would you rather they said it was a pile of steaming turd and that nobody should bother watching?

No one said 40m people watched it.
Unlike YawnYawn who still like to talk about "4 billion".
The Origin was the most watched program on Australian TV so far this year. That's a fact. YawnYawn would love half that for any of their Stupid 15 bore-a-thons. That's if they could even get them shown on free to air TV - which they can't.
Anyone who slags off Origin is just jealous. Either jealous yawnyawn trolls or jealous poms who know they have nothing that compares. Oh sorry, they do have "Origin" this year. And what an event that will be! England v the Old Mercenaries XIII.
