  In 2012 pre season The Raiders were playing the Doggies in a trail match at Wagga, My wife being a doggies supporter wanted signatures but didn't want to go bother the players so I told her to give the jersey to me Ill go, anyway got Hodkinsons signature and also got Jimmy Dymock also he was hanging around, got to Mick Ennis who was signing stuff for these young girls and I put the jersey out and asked if he would sign it, he said Nah I've had enough, I said oh I see how it is, only show up for little girls hey, he gave me the filthiest look I have ever seen, proud as punch for getting under the biggest sledger in the games skin I didn't stop there, I said next time ya see Hindy tell him to give ya one on the chin from me, other players and some other people were laughing at the situation and he didn't have anything to say, he got escorted up to the change rooms. Even my wife thought he was a grub

    I wonder if the other players gave it to him later. There's normally a bit of stirring in any team.

  I see what you did there sixties. I'm sure they all line up and give it to him (mainly in the shower) the last few probably are stirring the porridge a bit.

  I have a story.

  Many years ago I used to Captain Mark O'Meiley at the Wyong Roos. I knew him through playing footy as a kid. Anyway, he had been signed by the big league and I ran into him with my first girlfriend when I was boarding a train from Club Troppo (a Gosford nightclub) back to Wyong after a night out. He was with his girl also and we sat together having a chat on the way home. Two guys walked in and started being smart to the girls. Mark politely said to go away or "we'd" hurt them.

  To put this into context I was about 60kg as a 17 year old (I had a fake ID, my girlfriend was 18) and he was about 90 kg also as a 17 year old. These two blokes then challenged us to punch on. At this point I was thinking "oh great" I am going to get killed. Mark looked across at me and suggested I "look after the girls" lol.

  So he wanders up to the carriage part where the doors are on this empty train and dead set flattens the two of these much older blokes. The train pulled up as Lisarow and he very calmingly drags the two of them onto the platform near enough still knocked out and hops back on the train. He sits back down and says to me "thanks buddy".

  Its a very funny memory that I don't feel so bad about now knowing he turned into a very tough bloke haha.

    Saw something similar once on a train, though it never got to violence. A couple of young blokes were making life difficult at night for all of us on a train home from the city. This big bloke is reading his paper, occasionally lowering it to look at them. Eventually they say one thing too much. He calmly folds his newspaper, walks down the carriage and whispers something to them. It's hard to describe the look on their faces, but not a sound came from them for the rest of the journey. This bloke merely returned to his seat and continued reading the paper.

  I'm sure that you could work out that I'd have plenty of stories from my time there.
