Did anyone just catch footage on 7 of Ross' press conferecne? Were they saying no media turned up to it? Out of protest maybe?

Pretty poor effort by the media. I say lock them all out when we're flavour of the month again in September.
Shattered dreams are just opportunities for improvement. Live and learn, fail and try harder. 2011 beckons.

showed it about 5 mins from the end. Ross made light of it and the commentators said he had every right to leave the press conference.

He'd probably call it 'an exclusive'.

The footage on Channel 7 had Ross looking at the emplty seats saying "Well fellows, is that ?" stood up with a big grin on his face and the two other guys in the room were looking around at who he was talking to!
Were they all awaiting Rodney's response as to the Bulldogs WTF?

I heard his press conference on the way home in the car on SEN, so someone must have turned up to it eventually. He said mostly the same things he said on the Channel 7 interview. How we were scratchy, and the game was frantic and skills down. How we were much better in the third (he rattled of the entries like the stats man he is), but couldn't get any scores for our efforts. He was asked why he spoke to them all at 3/4 time..no line coaches etc. He said he changes it up, and felt that was what he wanted to do, things he wanted to say. That he wanted more of the same...just defend a little harder and push a little harder forward and we're still in it blah blah. You can't really hear the questions on the radio, but did seem to be only one or two voices asking them. Will be posted up I gather tomorrow.

i just find it terrible - it's not the media's job to make a statement.

Ross' interview with Timmy Watson after the game, made mention of the Saints supporters-thanks Ross!
