NRL Grand Final - Storm v Cowboys

[Broncs_Fan]

Hmmm...

The AFL has all sorts of reports about how well supported their grand final teams are, 1000s to watch final grand final practices and training, talk about The Killers.

The NRL is inflating tickets figures, trotting out a relatively unknown singer and have articles joking about integrity and ref rant breech notices from two weeks ago in grand final week...super professional once again of course.

Macklemore is not a relatively unknown performer. He has 2.78m Twitter followers and 4m Instagram followers.

Macklemore is straight up shit.

One can argue whether Macklemore is or isn't their musical taste, or if suitable as a genre of music for the NRL showpiece. But the the dude is a legit global artist and shouldn't be described as shit. He actually packs an interesting fusion of styles into his tracks. Can produce.

Cold chisel all the way!

I'd rather Borat sing the national anthem.

Ryan Lewis can produce you mean. Macklemore might have talent or be successful at what he can do, doesn’t mean what he does is any good.

I think we can all agree that with anything 'creative', beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

Either way, far too much focus is on the entertainment of this game. The NRL aren't priming this the way the occasions deserves.

Probably because a band like the Killers are pretty inoffensive (in both senses ie their sound and content) and because Macklemore isn’t there’s been so much negative press. Also sweet **** all has happened with either team. And aside from Pay being appointed, no other team as well. There’s only so many fluff articles people can write

It's a shame that singing a song that supports people to not be ashamed of who they are is so offensive to some people. Says a lot about the fucked up state of the world really.

From memory, this is the only country in the world it went to number 1 in.......regardless of the plebiscite he was always going to play it.

It's the day it's finally arrived. Uppa Storm

I reckon this is going to be a great game today. Plenty of points, some big hits and some real flashy outside backs moves.

Storm 26 - Cowboys 18
FTS: Ado-Carr
LTS: Slater
Churchill: Munster

I hope the cowboys get up but just think their run may have ended last week. The storm will be on from the get go and not let up, they won't want a repeat of last year.

Enjoy the day all!
