NRL has failed.

The AFL gets INXS and Lionel Richie

The NRL gets Jessica Mauboy and a Rolling Stones tribute
 
The entertainment was laughable,some crap rap dancers and a lip syncing idol reject,a jjj has been band doing stones covers WTF???????
Bring back billy idol
 
The powers that be in the NRL have NO IDEA what is entertaining.
Why was there a Rolling Stones tribute? what does that have to do with the NRL?
That pop stars song was a huge piece of turd and her lip syncing a disgrace.

I mean look at previous years - hoodoo gurus, wes carr, barnsey….we have far more talent in this country then these clowns.

Maybe the NRL should get a Reality TV show winner, Novoselich and Grohl and call it Nirvana…INXS are a joke now.

Does pre-game entertainment even matter? Is anybody not going to watch the game because the entertainment sucks? On the flipside, will anybody tune into the game soley for the entertainment?

The You Am I Rolling Stones tribute was odd but come on - INXS and Lionel Richie are hardly cutting edge. At least Jessica Mauboy is an artist with charting songs in the last decade. Lionel Richie hasn't done anything since the mid 80s.

The NRL are hardly perfect but this idea that the AFL does everything better is, in my opion, misplaced. The AFL have a long track record of having has beens as their major act. Does the name Irene Cara ring a bell?

I'd be ashamed if i was in charge of organising that tonight

Yeah Jessica Mauboy is only one of the most successful female artists in Australia over the past 5 years. Why have her when you can get a bloke who last had a hit in 1984…

She looks good but the song was crap, that said….if you asked everyone what their perfect GF entertainment would be, I reckon you'd get as differering replies as youd get if you asked 'whats your fave meal'
Its like the laughing clowns at a circus, secondary crap
 
Yeah those 5 years of success showed in the 5 minutes she was out there. That was organised with a weeks notice. The AFL has us covered for pre match entertainment every year.

At least you'd be getting a muso, not a lipsyncing artificial star.
 
She was probably told to do it that way. She should've done the Muse response and pretend to play badly http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hYKnGMdSQdM
 
I think the NRL needs to change its pre match entertainment focus.

Rather then just get some has beens (I know Jessica Mauboy isn't a has been and she is probably Aus biggest popstar at the moment), they should change their focus to the game more, celebrate the past, bring some more legends to the ground and tell some of the great stories. Focus also more on the season that has just passed as well.

I think fans would enjoy that a lot more then some musicians that I'm sure most either don't like or don't know.
