As a passionate Queenslander, I agree… This is a silly myth!

Good to hear that Watto, especially coming from a Qlder

 

[spearby]

Andrew Johns 'The Greatest Player In The World' was a myth created by Channel Nine and sold to the NSW folk for 10 years… I do feel Andrew Johns was revolutionary in creating this new 'Number 7' within the game of RL and has since seen this 'Number 7' play like a second 5/8\. One of the best 'club' footballers we have ever seen and was the equal of Peter Sterling at Club Level, but never the 'Greatest'.

I respect your veiws but Andrew Johns is the best player the games ever seen by a country mile best all round player I've ever seen he had it all .. ( even know he was off his face he still was the best ever).

Yes!!! This is the biggest myth in the game. We had 10000 ppl in blatcheys blues for origin 2 last yr, thousands more than the qlders have ever got. Don't tell me qlders have more passion than me or thousands of other new south welshman!!

1\. When Souths are doing well, rugby league is doing well
2\. Ray Warren is the best caller in the game
3\. The SCG is a good place to watch league

Yes, yes and yes. You beat me to suggesting the first 2, and I definitely agree with the 3rd.

Wasn't that the day after Gordie said he felt sorry for the NSW players because they care but their fans don't, or something along those lines?

100 000 Souths 'fans' marched on Town Hall in 2001, there were a lot of fans of clubs other than Souths supporters that day!.

The Daily Telegraph writing true, factual stories.

I was one of the people who marched. I also went to a fund raising game and donated cash to save souths. I love the game more than my team …

I wanted the Magpies to stand alone, I was anti merger. I was proud that Souths took the league to court and won.

Yeah I think he might have said something like that. Tallis is an idiot, one of the dumbest ex footballers there is.

Another myth related to origin: mal meninga is a good coach based on his origin success

1\. When Souths are doing well, rugby league is doing well
2\. Ray Warren is the best caller in the game
3\. The SCG is a good place to watch league

Just wondering who you think is a better caller than Rabs Yoss?
Personally I can't imagine the game without him, but thats just my opinion.
Who do you rate as a better caller? Voss, Hadley, Moore, Smith, Braybrook, Raymond?

Andrew Moore and Andy Raymond don't deserve to be mentioned in the same breath as Rabs

 

[GNR4LIFE]

the 'when Souths are going well, Rugby League is going well' is a total myth. Souths have been the joke of the league for over 20 yrs, and I don't think Rugby League has suffered because of it

Nether should Voss. The only one who I can think of that comes close is probably Hadley.

I'd have to agree. Hadley is the greatest radio caller of the modern era IMO

I think I saw you bag Voss below but IMO he is a massively better commentator than Rabs. I'd also rate nearly all the Foxtel commentators as superior. I just get sick of the grandstanding, pointless and manufactured arguments with Phil Gould, errors, and rubbish you get with Rabs.

 

[batboy]

LAURIE DALEY IS NOT BETTER THAN RABBITS….

LAURIE DALEY IS NOT BETTER THAN RABBITS….

Stop shouting! And I'm talking about the lead commentators. The "colour" commentators on Fox are normally abysmal.

Purely as a caller, Voss is realy good. His humor gets on my nerves, and his 3 stooges routine with Freddie and Joey is extremly agonizing to listen to, but take all that out, he knows the game. Kind of like Gus. A great football mind but his ego and constant digs at Rabs to get a response make him painful to listen to. The only lead caller on fox who comes anywhere near Rabs is Warren Smith IMO

The best caller in the game didn't even get a mention from any one

David Morrow from ABC radio wets on all of them and would be a breathe of fresh air on TV

Extremely intelligent ,great eye for the game and extremely knowledgable on the game

I agree with you there GNR. Voss is a great caller of the game but outside of the commentary the guy makes me sick. Warren Smith is easily the best commentator on Fox.
