    At least he is open about it, being employed by the Roosters and all. Lewis and Lockyer on the other hand will just cheer for whichever team has the most Qldrs in it.

    Who cares if they are bias?

    For the same reason nobody wants to listen to you talk about Justin Hodges. Having a bias is fine; we all do. But letting said bias get in the way of rational observation and commentary is nauseating.

    Just like you and Thurston and Tate.

    You are as guilty of that in the match threads as anyone on here.

    Wally Lewis is definitely the worst.

    About MF's bias:

    But he's not commentating the games on TV.

    Flack's right to an extent. I'm not getting paid for it and I'm not on TV, which is the crux of the original point. Furthermore it's a false equivalence. Nothing I've said draws near to the sort of shit you hear from people Fittler when the Roosters are playing. And that's mainly because as you know, I don't have a massive love for any club teams. (The sort of shit we hear coming out of your mouth about Gillett and Hodges, Gemmell, is actually on par with the most partisan hack.)

    I care more about the QLD side and Origin. That said I don't think I'm any more biased than the average person when it comes to the Maroons. Just for example, most of the QLDer's I talked to thought Thaiday should've been rewarded with a try in Game 2. I didn't.

    Well I can see how you would think that after clearly misinterpreting and misrepresenting what I said about some Easts players a few weeks ago.

    :laugh: And you of all people? You're havin' a fucken laugh aren't you? Jesus Christ. You said not one week ago that Maxwell gifted the Panthers the win. Fuck me dead.

    You think Thurston is better than Lockyer. I won't read anything you have to say on player bias.

    As a half, I don't think it's really even close.

    In what ways is Fittler 'open about it', that Lockyer and Lewis aren't?

  14. Mr Chook MR Chook

    I thought that was obvious. He is a Roosters man, he's employed by the Roosters and freely admits he cheers for the Roosters during the call.

    Lockyer and Lewis tries to be impartial but when an exciting finish ensues like the other night Lewis just can't help himself and yells 'go, go, go" when a Qldr like JT looks like he's about to snatch victory.

    Lockyer is on the board for the Broncos. That's not hidden information.

    I've heard rumours that both Lockyer and Lewis enjoyed long rugby league careers representing QLD, too. Such a shame they've felt the need to cover it up.

    And it would be understand understandable when they call an Origin game, not so much a Cows v Roosters game.

    So it's OK for Freddy to cheer, but not Lockyer or Lewis?

  19. Lordeman JA Robertson

    Yep, because he currently receives an income from the Roosters - that makes it ok.

    Lockyer & Lewis add nothing anyway, that's the bigger issue.
