Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 2567863, member: 1899"] Yeah, it's starting to feel like awhile ago now but I remember when it broke out and it really felt like a black day for the game. I must admit, apart of me felt jovial about it because as a Broncos fan, it made the 06 victory that much sweeter, took the edge off some of our past defeats & made us the No. 1 team of the 00s but as a Rugby League fan, I thought it was a travesty. It basically rendered a fair chunk of 06-09 meaningless, heck, even 2010 suffered because some of the best players in the world were anchored on the bottom of the ladder. However, I got over it and after seeing all this entitlement brewing from clubs like Parramatta, St. George & Manly I actually developed a soft spot for them. Hey, at least Melbourne had developed these stars, they didn't just go out, spend ridiculous amounts of money to entice them away only to spit them back out because they couldn't make it work - no Bellamy improved these players and they became so good their value inflated too quickly. Yes, they did the wrong thing but they paid a fair price for it and I was glad to see them beat a team like the Dogs in the 2012 grand final. [/QUOTE]
