    • U are not wrong!
    • Benedict: You don`t have to be a genius to make that decision. Just don`t like falafel and the occasional goat to eat. 

  • Is Reynolds mates with Brown?
  • You should change the title, I read it as Arthur turns down coaching Lebanon and Nathan Brown.
  • Mitchell Moses hey. Was he spotted at El Jannah's or something?

    I guess that qualifies you as being Lebanese.

    • I think Benny Elias is his uncle or something so he could be Leb.
    • Mitchell Moses is the nephew of Benny Elias who is of Lebanese heritage. Funny joke though..

    • He frequents the Lebo restaurant in Balmain a lot - that should qualify him.

      And the food is bloody good to boot.

  • Feel Sorry for BA if the year from hell didn't happen he would have coached Lebanon added that to his CV.

  • Mods? Do we now get the "Nathan Brown to the Eels" blog back?
