Respect

[Andrew Walker]

After all the crap slater has got away with his whole career, I think it was fitting that he got booed at every opportunity. The little whinger cant help himself trying to bluff the ref after our field goal, and he had to nerve to say how his judiciary appearance ruined his preparation.
BOOOOOOOOO

In all honesty I think Melbourne would have been better off copping the charge and instantly preparing for the match with Jerome Hughes as Fullback. they spent half a week fighting that charge, then he got off and they had Dally Ms next night Fan Day appearances the following day. It was that day I realised how poor their preparation for this match must be. But no it was all about Billy Slater and him playing his last match Melbourne as a club got that wrong yeah they got him olff but it was at the expense of a good GF preparation. Either way though we still would have beat them That game was done at half time.

Respect - well the entire Roosters Bay stood and generously applauded and even cheered some of our arch enemies from other team as the retiring players did their lap around the ground.

The NRL have placed a stain on the game as a result of the last week.

i think the message which would have come from any team opposing the Storm.

As the response was from social media from other club supporters

[Easts75]

I paid for my tickets so I will yell out whatever i want to and I do. I never swear, be racist or sexist, but i will boo all ****ing day if i choose whilst grubs like Smith & Slater are on the field. Their Coach and players have introduced too many grubby tactics to the NRL to mention. The Storm have systematically cheated for years and now they want to get precious about harmless booing, give me a ****ing break

What happens to our players at Lang oval during SOO?

the Bilby needs a cup of cement

[Nigel Gaffey]

The NRL thinks the fans are idiots and this was our way of showing what we thought of the judiciary and the fact Slater was let off. But I do agree that when the game is won and highly respected players of the game are giving a speech the fans should have shown a bit more class. I do always believe our club is regarded as a classier club than most and should have put hostile emotions aside after the match was won. Cam Smiths speech was very classy about how our team played last night and he was very good in defeat.

To be fair, Billy's come out and said he's not reading too much into the booing. Good luck to him.

[Tom Verlaine's Ghost]

Silly Blighter got the booing he deserved. He was there illegitimately and everyone knew it.

[Arties Pie]

Didn't care about the Booing crowd as they pay their entrance it's their choice, On Slater the guy has been a real grub, a stain on the game for years whether it's for the kicking whilst catching, boots first tackling in the ingoal, taking numerous dives and all round cat play I can't say I will miss him nor see what others see in him. If the choice was between Mini or Slater Mini wins hands down in all facets of the game.

I was once Booed by a Peeping Tom having sex with my wife..Didn't effect my performance. In fact it bought he best out of me.

YEAH but when Queenslanders do it, it's called passion. When a NSW crowd boo it's disrespect.

[eddie]

Billy's come out and said he's not reading too much into the booing. .

That's because he needs a smack in the face.
Billy and reality dont mix.

[Kingbilly]

Booing during the game is fine its part of the fun and games. I don't think it was billy's fault the NRL let him off so the booing at the end during the presentation was a bit much.
Saying that if Munster, Chambers or that other dick centre were speaking I would boo because they are disgraceful even for Melbourne

With a name like BigBen I hope you managed to satisfy your wife.

Grub Slater susupended nine times in his career and should have been 10. Hardly immortal material.

[Nicola Tesla]

I booed Billy all night, because I actually do respect him. He is a great and I’m happy to say I’ve seen his career. I booed him for fun... also to put him off.
i would have hated to see him miss that game... it gives our win more meaning...and I think we need to make sure we always have the best players available for the big games unless they try to decapitate people.
