Ray Price Quote

Saw this today on Clarkey' Rugby League Facebook page. Gave me a good chuckle.

They don't do retention now like they used to in the 80s... Just ask Eels skipper Ray Price who ensured players re-signed with the Eels by threatening to bash them!

  • A real leader on and off the field what a player my favourite Eel of all time 

  • How he's not the top of the list for next Immortal I'll never understand.

  • Should clone him, 13 times.

  • A champion and a winner ....the greatest eel .....and a big reason we won 4 comps which should have been six !  ha

  • Great player and a true Eels patriot 

    • 5 complimentary mentions in succession for Ray, is it time for a negative reply....well possibly, but it wont be by me. He was down on the ground getting treated for concussion with 3minutes to go inthe 84 GF and Bugden ran thru where Raya would have been standing. The mutts were so lucky he wasn't on his feet. And as great as he was you can believe he was a better bloke. It goes without saying he's been dudded by not already becoming an Immortal.

      • Well, you don't get a statue of yourself out the front of your home ground for being shit, now do you.

         

        • You could have a point there John

  • Legend

"Good blog, Bluey. Your concerns are fair. Where we differ is what “all in” means. I don’t think we are "all in" only on juniors. We are "all in" trying to improve across the whole footy spectrum.
