  • Good riddance. 

  • I honestly don't remember this bloke.

      • Yeh I don't recognise him. 

        • The only reason I remember him is because when the good Junior debuted I thought, "How can the same guy debut twice?"

  • Cocaine is a hell of a drug

    • We have had several Paulo's over the years, & while I don't reccolect this one his face does look familiar. The focuse in the reports are pointing him as only being an eels player and at Prop, yet he sort of reminds me in his looks as the Paulo who played for us and then finished his career at the Sharks, more than likely I am wrong on that.

      • You're thinking of Joseph Paulo. 

        • He’s Joseph’s brother

        • Thanks Mutt & Browny for the name, and yes it was Joseph but had another nick name IIRC
