Completely believable

MJD left this comment yesterday:

You won't believe the crap the NZRL have got themselves in. Played Nathan Fien on the basis his great grandma was a kiwi - arguing that grandparents (plural) means any generation. Worst of all - even in the face of every definition of "grandparents" meaning only 4 possible people - big Sel is sticking to his guns. Upshot - we'll lose the 2 points from the win over the Poms. Mate!!

Later mate - just stepping out for 2nd coffee of the Sun shiny day

There was only one error. Mate - I would believe it. Without even stretching. When it comes to Kiwi League Administration, I would believe anything. Even the Sky Sports guys over here have been laughing at us.

Sel Bennett has always been a schnook of the first order.

The NZRL had stood by their claim that "grandparents" should be interpreted to include great- grandparents, which was at the centre of their argument along with the belief that there were no provisions in the constitution, written by RLIF chairman Colin Love, a Sydney lawyer, for determining and imposing penalties.

Unbelievable.

Strike that.

Typical.
