    Sterlo said it.... Alot of us grew up watching footy show. Begging our parents to let us watch the reruns and man, with Fatty, their commentaries gave us an appreciation of the game to the point that hours of discussion would ensue the day after.
    Thank you Peter Sterling. You're truly a legend

    Im an Eels fan, couldn't afford a Jersey when i was a kid so made my mum at least get me a yellow shirt with a blue iron on number 7, which she did all cuz of this guy. Will always be my favorite player

    Even other codes of football regard him as a legend, will be sorely missed. All the best Sterlo

    I remember buying Sterlo a beer at the SCG hill back when he first became a regular first grader. I was impressed with what a fine young man he was. 40 years later he's never done anything to change that opinion.

      Kudos to you too! An amazing man is Sterlo. A gentleman of the highest stature and every day his standing grew stronger. A legend as a player. An advertisement for life and humanity.

    I'm a massive Manly fan, and therefore of course I don't generally like anything to do with Parramatta, but you gotta agree that this guy is all class, both as a former star of the game, and also for his complete professionalism in front of the cameras. Well played, Sterlo!

  • @stevespencer8904

    The best footy brain to have never coached. I honestly believe he would have made an awesome NSW and Australian coach. The consummate professional larrikin.

    • @deeelandiseactive3920
      @deeelandiseactive3920 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      100% agree I always thought he should've been a blues coach as well. Would've saved us during that low period for nsw

    Head and shoulders above the shouters who have little insight to offer, unbiased and unassuming. Great player, great commentator and from the endorsements, a great colleague.

    Watching & listening to Sterlo for close to 30 years has been an honour. I think I can say on behalf of all of us 'Thank you for your service' & wishing you all the best happiness for the next chapter of your life. Forever a legend ! 👍🙂

    @themelanesianmagazine 2 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    The reason I watch channel 9 and footy show is because of Sterlo and Fatty. Every Thursday Nights in PNG, we had to stay up to watch Footy Show and next morning in school, a discussion session at recess about the show. Wonderful memories growing up. Thank you Sterlo, your voice and analysis of the game will be missed. Happy Retirement.

    Been two years since Peter Sterling retired from his broadcast role @nines wwos. From being one of the NRL's best halfbacks of the 1980s with the Parramatta Eels to being one of the best commentators and had an unbiased opinion of every team in the comp including the very club he played for and was a one club player. I've heard many funny moments of Peter Sterling in commentary during a Friday night game or a Sunday afternoon game. Great sense of humour and was very professional in discussing serious topics within the NRL. Never disrespected anyone he worked with and never said a bad thing about anyone. Gave his opinions respectfully and always respected other people's varying opinions even if he didn't agree with that particular person's opinion. I admired sterlo for everything he was and still is when listening and watching sterlo give his expert opinion of the game on TV. Sterlo, like a lot of great men of the NRL never went looking for accolades and was always humble. Watching and listening to sterlo in commentary has influenced in my opinion of such a great bloke. I miss hearing his voice in commentary and miss hearing his expert opinion of the great game of rugby league. Hope sterlo is enjoying his retirement and whatever he does in life.

    No truer champion on and off the field, Sterlo is nothing short of true legend of the game (and agreed, his name should be high on the ranks as an Immortal), and he will be sorely missed throughout the commentary world calling the games in a non bias way, and as a host of the WWOS, good luck for everything the future holds for you Sterlo, it's been nothing but a pleasure to watch you having played, and commentate and host weekly on WWOS throughout the years!!!!!

      @glenchapman3899 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      All the stories you hear about him as a player are true. Even when he was ripping your side apart, I never heard a bad word from fans. One of the few universally liked players who ever played the game

A gentleman and totally deserving of inclusion in the Immortals of the game for his contribution to Rugby League. Thanks Sterlo !!

  • @brucemann5231
    @brucemann5231 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    What a loss! Respectful, unbiased, humble and self deprecating which is such a refreshing take on being a media personality. He represents the positive end of the spectrum which saddens me greatly because we are now left with having to tolerate the incompetent fools and selfish whiners on that other show featuring Buzz light year (to infinity and beyond…..please!!) and his Superman friend, Clark Kent (can someone find some Kryptonite to put him to sleep for a while). Fantastic work Sterlo. I’m not a Parra fan but I feel like I want to support them now!!!

    First fatty and now Sterlo, truly the end of a golden era of footy media. But I look forward to the new era of presenters taking the mantle, and whom I watched play growing up myself. I just don’t think Sterlo could ever be replaced, we are truly lucky to have had him for so long in the game.
