For 80 minutes last Sunday I loathed the Channel Nein commentary with it's obvious Panthers bias from Gould.

Now I will treasure it forever with Phil "Smug-git" Gould looking like the clueless prat he truly is.

Supposedly NRL aren't happy about the t shirts the players wore with the 6 premiership rings. Too bad, it's not offensive and doesn't hurt anyone. Only an issue because they are controlled by the media.

I saw that on socials... Any quote from the NRL? Or is it just one pseudo-journalist not happy with it and trying to create a story?

Also,
1) Players kept rings so nothing is inaccurate on the shirts, and
2) The NRL have no business telling the Storm that they can't put 6 rings on their shirts. Tell them to f*ck off?

Nrl have put a stop to it

Apparently they can’t put out the storm tees cause they cant promote a team (Huh)
But they are putting out Cheese tees cause they can promote a player or players (beats me)

They still wanna get the storm tees up but might be awhile

It'll be something like NRL Intellectual property, much like you can't advertise using the word Olympics or using the rings. There's plenty of ways around these things, they'll find a way.

Best solution is to restore the premierships!

Fine, make a shirt with Smithy holding up his hand with a ring on all 5 fingers. Promoting the player, not the team :roll:
