Seagulls Hawks?

[Lyon King]

Just watchingJohn Grant,Chairman of theNRL on fox sports announcing test side.....did he just say DCE from the Manly Warringah SEAGULLS.....are u kidding? btw, he was reading a script! He then went on to say Paul Gallen from the Cronulla Hawks! what the?

 

[castle eagle]

got to remember, he is the drop kick who believes that queensland is the heart of rugby league

 

[wedgetail eagle]

Did he appear to be drug affected?

 

[mozgrame]

No. Just fect in general.

 

[HappilyManly]

Seagulls, must be 1947 at the ARLC :dodgy:

Nice that they care about their Product

 

[double hoops]

How embaresing that he is in charge of this game. Who made that appointment?

 

[LombiEagles]

What a disgrace. Embarrassing.

 

[bob dylan]

Stand down you dunce.

 

[RiverEagle]

That's extraordinarily poor if true (didn't see it).
The Commissar is inept and the ''head'' of the game (David Smith) is a silent partner to say the least.
Just as well our team's the ''business'', coz those muppets clearly are NOT.

 

[bob dylan]

Can someone from the Club help me get a Hawks jersey.

 

[ABTK]

Can someone from the Club help me get a Hawks jersey.

Someone must have an old Harden jersey somewhere, Bob...

Wasn't it David Smith who said that?

 

[castle eagle]

yeah my bad, half heard it on the radio & thought they said it was smith that said it

 

[HappilyManly]

John Grant said it, but he was actually reading from a script :huh:

Don't worry, Greenberg has got everything under control.

 

[Top End Eagle]

Up on telecrap website now. Must have taken them a while to read silvertails.

They were blowing up about this on the radio yesterday after the team was announced.

Grant's the chairman of the NRL and he doesn't even know what teams are in the NRL. Pathetic. This is a bad look for the game with these type of people running it.

He was reading from a script which the NRL Media Manager had prepared. On the script it said DCE from the Manly Seagulls but nothing about the Cronulla Hawks (so he stuffed that one up himself). In any case he should have known better and should not have let this happen.

 

[lsz]

You can not deny that it was very very funny. Could only have been topped if he got a Cowboys player wrong (just for their reaction)

 

[eagles2win]

I can understand a Welsh banker getting a name of a player wrong.

But a bloke that has played and been around the code for a lifetime is what's embarrassing re Hawks and Seagulls
