not sure what has gotten into rothfield, but his best part of grand final day was the jets winning, AND

he also said that the NRL should put more effort and money into the roosters! to battle the threat from the swans, instead of only worrying about the western sydney clubs where the GWS is a much lesser threat at the moment.

does he have a hidden agenda?

It was especially heartwarming to follow the jets through the final series culminating in the premiership win...a great old club to be admired.

Truly the one and only highlight on the day.

[Spanner in the works]

Was a really good game. Happy for the boys.

2 possibilities:

a) he has realized how awesome our club is and how amazing it to be a supporter for such a awesome club, so he has stopped going for the sharks and started supporting us...

or

b) reverse psychology.

Either way.........

Yes. He was attacking Phil Gould and how he keeps demanding special attention out west against the AFL threat.
Still I was VERY surprised he gave a positive spin on the Roosters in the process of attacking Gus.

My enemies enemy is not my friend is an old adage that we need to adopt when discussing Mr. Rothfield. He most probably got told to rag on the Swans as a non-Sydney team won the NRL. The irony being that it's the owner of his employer, the Daily Telegraph, that is bankrolling the team that beat the Sydney team in the NRL.

CONGRATULATIONS!!

To those Roosters players who contributed towards a Newtown victory

Also to the Newtown club & it's great history a deserved win...

The lads played with plenty of guts & spirit the past month & were rewarded for their tough uncomprimising attitude.

3 major prizes were up for grabs & our reserve grade got one.

No, he was probably just drunk.

[novice chook]

Rothfield is probably attempting to claim some connection to the Jets 'cause they were the Sharks feeder club before they became ours.

Such is his desperation to be linked to something, anything, that has experienced success.
