More Proof the NRL has something against Parra - Latest Finals Advertisement

Posted by Trouser Eel on July 26, 2015 at 5:06pm

Anybody else noticed the latest TV commercial for the Finals doesn't feature any positive footage of Parramatta? Plenty of Storm, Rabbitohs and Warriors tries. Could well be other teams are missed but I don't give a rats about them to bother checking. So, what's the go there? Is there anyone in Parra head office looking out for this kind of thing?

I did notice that it seems every nrl ad has every team in there except parra

Yes. I noticed that they featured Parra conceiving tries, yet they show teams like the Titans and Newcastle, who are no chance of making the finals, scoring them. Very bizarre.

Whilst it seems a tough challenge to get there, it is mathematically very achievable. The fact that the organising body chooses to approve such advertisements speaks volumes. I haven't noticed the ads yet. Does Manly feature? That would be insulting.

Lets face it guys, we arnt the best advertisement for the game atm, nor are we likely to be anywhere near the 8 when the whips are cracking.

If the NRL did an ad for the laughing stocks of the competition id be very disappointed if we didnt feature heavily in that.

What do you expect we haven't featured in one since I last wiped the shit off my sons balls.

Well given the fact that our season is gonski and we are not exactly a promoters dream with our 1: Salary cap penalties 2: Foran embarrassment, 3:.Sandow implosion and now 4: unregistered and seemingly dodgy TPA's, do you really expect the Eels to be up front and centre as a NRL promotion? Really just think about it.

You mean they don't expect us to feature heavily in the finals this year.... Thats preposterous, they must have something against us!!!
