    Shasta, im not a RL knocker, I watch plenty of NRL, im just a Melbourne Storm knocker, Melbourne Storm used to be my 2nd team because my best mate from school plays with them, but there's no ignoring that they cheated the competition and unfairly ruled other teams and fans out of premierships..

    I'm really interested to know where you heard that there memberships were double this time last year?

    So, TOCC, when will Cooper be signing with the second Brisbane NRL club?

    Or does he like playing with a bunch of fraudsters?

    Not completely hiding it mind you, but better.
    True that.

    And no shortage of closet Mungos either, come to think of it.
    I'm not here to knock any sport, i don't expect others to knock League just because its on my avatar either.

    IMO, the other campaign is by far the better one.

    The Daily Telegraph.



    They are up 98.2%, this year compared to this time last year.

    Note: since the article which this image appeared in, there has been another NRL membership update for all teams without comparison to where the teams were this time last year.

    How about the second Brisbane team actually get a license before targeting players.

    Btw, the Storm players never cheated. It's unfair to call the players cheaters for what the administration did.

    Now enough league talk, this isn't the time nor the place.

    Why is it lately that every thread is hijacked to talk about Mungo?



    I don't mind the ad. If it gets Victorians more interested in rugby and away from gayfl, then it's a win in my books.

    Now in my moleskin trousers and my Williams boots
    Aboard an outlaw as he leaves the chutes
    In my goose neck spurs I rake their fiery hide
    And the girls all shouting around the ringside
    Oh he's the Fulla from Cunnamulla
    Yeah he's the Cunnamulla Fulla

    Are you calling the QLD Reds a bunch of fraudsters? That's how it reads

    Cooper won't play NRL. He's too good to play for pea nuts. Salary cap = iron curtain

    Cooper likes the free market with no trade restrictions. He doesn't want to join the commies

    Minileague.........underpaying players since 1908

    Pretty sad for a "professional sport"

    The Western Bogans would never do that

    They would never have done the maths in their head as they stood around at team BBQ's eyeing off the talent whilst they lined up against half strength teams every week full of reserve graders, washed up hacks and 17 year olds

    Cooper Cronk - he is a St Laurence's old boy - where TOCC went to school.

    + I'm not suggesting the players are fraudsters, the organisation is.

    Isn't the stereotype of league players that they couldn't have done the maths?

    Their managers would have tipped them off + Sam Ayoub would have been in Ingli's ear trying to organise "the fix" and make a killing with the bookies

    No doubt Warnie would have tweeted them between playing hide the salami with Liz
