Parramatta v Penrith get Friday night, leaving St George v Manly for a 5.30 Saturday kick-off. Gus must be pulling some strings at Nein. What a joke. The sooner they are out of the game, the better.
Unfortunately Parra and The Riff have a largish bogan fan base, which fits in well with Neins demographic. More unfortunately our fans fit in very well with Foxtels key demographic, hence our regular Monday night matches. Not much we can do about this until the current tv deal is over.
Hardly surprising the NRL scheduling or should I say ch 9 is a farce. Also the 2011 premiers first real home game is a Monday night vs Penriff. For ****sake what a joke there wont be anyone there. After 6 rounds the best team in the comp will have played 2 ****ty Monday night games. How many do you think the Tigpies,Scumdogs,Broncos or Storm will get?
I'm sure they would have liked to pick us v Dragons, but we are playing on Monday night so they couldn't do that.
Good, saturday night is better for supporters anyway. Fridays are a pain in the ass & it's always a rush to get out there after work & the inconveniences of rush hour etc. Saturdays mean you can be a lazy bastard all day, go to the pub & relax before the game then go out to the game, have fun & then go out after it. Fridays blow, forza the saturday night game.
