I don’t think even the North Korean state broadcaster would be as fulsome in its praise of Kim Jong-un as the Offsiders crew were this morning about Peter V’Landys.

At least we saw a hint of acknowledgement today of the NRL's desperation, in that it has meant that they've been forced to hand back a lot of money to the broadcasters.
Whateley is miles better than Underwood. Never understood how Underwood gets the gigs she does. Hopeless on footy coverage.
Does the same go for Eddie Betts?I used to love watching this show. Was my favourite for years even thought it always had a lefty feel.
I don't know what's happened but it's been ruined. Dominated by SJWs.
I wish they would focus on the sport, not the social issues.

I tend to agree. Who was that annoying Irish journo talking about Connor McKenna like he was the second coming of Christ?
If you're wondering why so much coverage was given to the Women's World Cup announcement, well you must live under a rock.
Yes, Eddie Betts got racially abused againSo nothing else happened in sport this week?

Congratulations for Catherine Murphy calling out the distasteful media coverage of the McKenna situation - It's interesting that there have hundreds of professional athletes throughout the world test positive and their media has been supportive of the athlete - Australian media needs to grow up.
David Davutovic loves an overreach. You'd think the FIFA Women's World Cup will equal the impact and interest of the Sydney Olympics, rather than just being a fun few weeks with some legacy for women's training and support facilities.
The partiality and blinkered attitude of the single sports specialists on Offsiders is laughable.
To be fair, there were reports he had gone to an open for inspection and visit friends and broken other AFL restrictions (let alone society restrictions - stay at home and all that, which so many seem to have forgotten) so he’s still stuffed up.
That has nothing to do with his treatment in the media, especially from ex-players - AFL restrictions are two steps above society restrictions - You seem to be blissfully unaware like many in society - I will re-emphasise that athletes in other countries who test positive don't suffer the media bullshit that Mckenna received.
To be honest, I don’t give a toss the way athletes in other parts of the world are treated by the media. In other parts of the world COVID is rampant and completely out of control.
McKenna did the wrong thing. Simple. He broke the restrictions twice. He was lucky the second test came back negative. For all we know he could’ve have been at the tail end of the virus on the first positive.
Why are the AFL restrictions ‘two steps’ above? Because they know one positive test and the comp shuts down.
As far as I’m concerned if you’re a Djokovic or someone who blatantly breaks the rules and catches the virus you deserve to get slammed.
