Brock Lamb signs with Maitland Pickers
Brock Lamb has turned his back on a contract with the Parramatta Eeels to return home to the Maitland Pickers and playing with his mates.
Pops, I tend to agree, if he can get a job as an apprentice electrician, would set him up better for the future.

Only a mediocre back up, who cares.
