Channel Nine

I like how Petero is our only superstars...Hodges and Thaiday (among others) are just chop liver.

What I hate is this misconception that the Broncos are preventing clubs like Cronulla and Canberra from getting a game on Friday. Don't they realise Channel 9 picks the two games on Friday based on their respective states? Brisbane only have to compete with the Titans and the Cowboys. Cronulla have to compete with 10 other NSW clubs (if NSWRL considers Canberra a NSW club then so can I) and really given how poorly they've been managed why would they get preferential treatment over the West Tigers or Bulldogs?

As I keep saying, get rid of the FNF double header - move the game to Sunday and have FTA tv broadcast more games (Fri, Sat, Sun).

Done, dusted and hopefully I can see the Broncos play on a glorious Sunday afternoon.

^^^ This. Agree completely.

I also hate it that they think we fans like it. We don't like it etiher! It's a pain in the butt. I don't mind 4 or 5 times a year, but every week it's ridiculous!

I liked the first couple of weeks of NRL on Fox, but now it does appear Matty's trying too hard.

Friday games are awesome. altho prefer saturday night. Day games suck, too much sun in the eyes

Plus I hate how people criticise the Broncos for having Friday night games. The Broncos are on record as saying they PREFER Sundays. It's not them that makes the decision, it's Channel 9. Blame them FFS.

When Paul Kent said he hated watching the Broncos every Friday, a few nasty words came out directed at him. No-one ever mentions that the Warriors prefer their home games on Sunday at 2pm local time and gets it, no-one complains about that. The Sharks prefer their home games on a Saturday night and get it, no-one complains about that either. As soon as it involves the Broncos, it becomes an issue.

Paul Kent whinging about having to watch the Broncos as the 2nd game every weekend was a joke I thought. I mean seriously that is the dumbest reason to be against the Broncos playing on a Friday night I have heard.

Night Footy > Day Footy

I just want a few Saturday night games at Suncorp so it isn't such a chore to get to the game to watch the under 20's match and go out for a few brews before and after the game.

Night Footy > Day Footy

This. Much better atmosphere, great way to end the working week and guaranteed not to clash with QCup games I want to go to. Friday night footy FTW.

no sun in eyes either!

Paul Kent is an idiot best advice is to ignore every thing he dribbles on with.

 

[Big Pete]

Didn't Paul Kent rate us as premiership favourites one week?

Yes he tipped us as Premiers before round one.

I thought the stretch that the Broncos have an "unfair advantage" because they know they have a Friday night game and can have the same training times was the most ridiculous argument I've heard on the subject.

Also a ridiculous from Paul Kent. If this was the case you would think playing on any other day would be a massive disruption and surely result in a loss.

apparently, that comment has also come from an un-named trainer from an un-named rival club :finger:

Who thinks that Voss was poorly treated by niene. His call is superior to Hadley who is only good for the radio.
