I'm sick of the NRL's love affair with Souths.

[Johnny Tobin]

Thanks for your advice.

I will promptly ignore it.

I have bitten my tongue all week for not wanting to sound like a whinger .

Biting your tongue for a week.... It must be pretty sore...

Don't read it then.

Some of us want to vent.

Good one JT. What ever helps everyone to move on I guess.

I have bitten my tongue all week for not wanting to sound like a whinger however I can stand it no longer and could not agree more with all of you.They played well however the GF was all about souths;the media,the fact they had their song blasting when they ran out, hell the bulldogs even ran out to red and green lights for god sake..

The NRL have not even tried to hide the fact they were desperate for souths to win the comp. After the Coogee fiasco and the complete rort of the prem final I was so angry but the thing that got me going most of all was when I walked into the Allianz stadium(our home ground) during GF week and they had souths balloons and streamers up..

Now this is a club that left that stadium and took a Financial deal with homebush stadium so I knew that they would not be supporting them so I asked the girl behind the counter why they had them up.. Response was "the NRL headquarters asked management to put them up as it was a good look for the game"..amazing..if it was for the game why were Bulldog balloons not up?

The NRL bias towards Souths is getting ridiculous, they even went to Canberra to see the government about the deal with souths and Randwick council( a council in our area) in regards to heffron park becoming their base and wanting $23 million in government funding,this is after they already received government funding for Redfern. No other NRL club has had this assistance, I wonder why..

The Coogee fiasco might not affect those who don't live in the East subs but for those of us that do it kills us. I have lived in Coogee my whole life and for the council to have a vote, which anyone in Aust could vote in, to tell us whose area it is is disgusting. Has anyone ever heard a person say they live in "south sydney" when living in Coogee? Of course not. The majority of us all go for Easts and are disgusted by the council,who remember are in a financial deal with souths, for the way they have treated its residents.

The Rabbitohs want the entire East Subs make no mistake about it and I believe our club helped this move by losing the Eastern Subs name and going with Sydney. A huge mistake.Our clubs best bet is to reconnect with the majority of the East and with this new partnership with the central coast we may also be able to take over/incorporate the North Sydney RL into our area too. That will give us a huge area and protect our future. The club needs to act to give us a larger area.We know the "Souths loving" NRL wont help us.

I recently spoke with someone that works for your council.

The development at Heffron is well and truly back on the cards.

This will be followed by Souffs returning to the Sydney Football Stadium.

Even though I lived near Waverley Bowling Club for nearly 32 years and would be sad to see this monstrosity built, I think i need to support it.

The ESDRLFC/Easts Group needs to prosper both on and off the field.

We need to continue to win SG Ball competitions, be Club Champions, Minor Premiers etc.

Easts to win.

Hi Johnny Tobin,

It is not venting it is merely sour grapes and crying and it is quite out of hand.

The Federal Government has given them $10m of our tax dollars!

Randwick Council has given them $3m (or $4m) of our rates dollars.

The NRL has given them $3m (or $4m).

We tried and didn't get a Zac.

It's an out and out scandal.

I hope Burgearse is not putting his op on Medicare otherwise it's a scandal
