I thought we had already re-signed him for 2 or 3 years not long ago.

As soon as I saw the link to the Daily Telegraph I totally doubted the validity of this claim.

I'm thinking of opening a boat dealership in Melbourne.

If I had a dollar for every story that didn't come true about parra in general I would be rolling in it.

I'm sure the DT has some details of unresolved TPA's that are going to make him leave. No? Well I'm sure that will be in the next article.

We had a similar report a week or so back, if there is any truth in the story if I was Cameron Munster the storm understudy & already stated to be groomed as Slackers replacement I would be filthy.
