Isn't it just amazing what wearing red, white and blue does?!?!?
I've been told by other supporters that I have a "victim mentality" when it comes to the issue of the Roosters and penalties. There's no point arguing with them, even armed with stats which clearly show the "RWB Opposition Effect"."Be good enough to forgive people but don't be stupid enough to trust them again."

2. Carntey is suddenly no longer visiting bars at all hours of the morning
2. Carney is still probably visiting bars at all hours of the morning, but because he plays for our favourite scribe's favourite club, it's no longer newsworthy. Just like players in one team towns get away with all sorts of incidents because they close ranks around their own."Be good enough to forgive people but don't be stupid enough to trust them again."

[QUOTE=redwhiteblue;185717]1. Eggs are poached, not players. Funny how if another club does it, it's referred to as an 'astute' signing.
