NRL 2016 NRL Grand Final - Melbourne Storm vs Cronulla Sharks

Why did Ch9's NRL broadcast in here in South Australia stop 35 secs after the game finished? Their bastardry? Or because of our solar panels and wind turbines?

James Hird green with envy of Shane Flanagan right now.

Same thing used to happen here in Melbourne mate. It might be on Gem.

Can't believe the Provan-Summons Trophy weighs almost 30kgs, talk about excessive.

Pretty damm long. Mind you, in Melbourne, not many years ago they'd be replaying some show from the 80's, so I guess we should be grateful.

Good to see the NRL Touch Judges are adopting the AFL game plan - Just Pass it as far forward as you can (at least our umpires would call it a throw!!!!!) without penalty, but put your foot out of touch and they see that one - Either have forward Passes penalised or take it out of the rule book, as For this a National Game we need better officials bunker or no bunker - If they (the officials) did their job as they are paid for we would not need 4 extra officials sitting on their butts watching a TV screen at our expense!!!!!!! - Well done Sharks - Shame on NRL officialdom??????

Yes. If hird had his time again would he have just taken early guilty plea.

Who are the two people they keep going to just before they get to the dais?

Bit of both I reckon. They're showing some show that was missed on Wednesday due to the Great SA Blackout.

The coverage is now on Gem.

Really piss poor by Channel 9 - should've put the other show on Gem.

LOL at the massive Ennis head popping up then

ET is 50. Holy s**t.

 

[Boomerfan99]

Can they draw this out any longer.

They've been waiting over 50 years. They can take as long as they like.

Thanks but 'the vibe' is gone now. Still there'll be plenty to read about from a week where as Roy and HG used to say "Too much sport is barely enough." Really looking forward to Back Page and Tony Squires on Tuesday.

Storm would have done better with Hill and Smith on the wings.

Always has to be one who thanks Jesus.

That's a hell of an insight. I mean I get how a Bombers' fan would be up with it but it hadn't even crossed my mind.

 

[raskolnikov]

ANZ the best stadium in the world. Lol.

I think sponsor reps.

 

[raskolnikov]

Norm Provan looked a bit nonplussed.

 

[damochandler]

Fifita was the best player on the park by a mile. Bird was next best.

 

[Andrew Mc]

Was thinking that, but seemed a bit more personal. Could be a significant benefactor of the club - they certainly needed it along the way.

 

[NinjaSwan]

He was my pick too. Great to hear someone is having a much better Sunday than yesterday was!

Thanks, losing 2 grand finals in 1 weekend would have been the worst.

Those 2 or Maloney wouldn't have surprised.

I remember the law suit (defamation?)...nude shower scene photo which showed the outline of his penis....but can't remember the result, any one know? Did he win?

I guess when you're part of a club for 10 of their 11 in a row, winning just one is a bit meh .
