  • I say bring back the kid LAROI

    • Don't mind that, though only did the GF recently. The rumour around is Olivia Dean now since she is in Sydney next week. I doubt you could get her here earlier so fast and she would cost a bomb.

  • Weidler just said its going to be a lap of honour for Jai Arrow.

     

    • Hmmm , ok im going to say it .  

       

      its now overkill on the Arrow thing . Youd think hes the only person on Earth to get this shit disease .  

      There's are families out there who have not been getting paid the best part of a million bucks a year , have not had the fourtune of huge public fundraisers , and the families have to keep working regular jobs every day to simply support the huge medical bills . 

      Arrow would own his home , would be insured to the eyeballs and if im correct Souths said theyve paid him as per his contract ? 

      On top of that , his employers whove claimed to be his mates , are a Billionaire and a world famous mega rich movie star .  

      So yeah ,  how about they give it a rest .  

       

      ok , ive  said my bit .  Call me a khunt , i just think if i was a battling family dealing with MND or the likes id feel a little insulted by a wealthy dude with super wealthy mates being treated as he's the biggest battler in the country . 

       

      Rusty and packer would spent most peoples weeks wage on a shirt , let them look after the bloke . Then the NRL can do some awareness and fundraising  for the battlers . The other week they came around the crowd feom betting agents saying a percentage of our bets would go to Arrow.  fmd  

      • Agree wiz 

        ffs it's been done to death 

        let the dude be with his family and rest up 

        it's overkill 

      • Call me cynical but I think these "embrace the player" moments done to folks with diseases that may be (in the future) found to be related to traumatic head injuries / concussions are done purely as a tactic to make sure that they don't try to sue the pants off the NRL or their club.

        Not saying it's 100% non genuine, but I definitely think there are a few lawyers that said "Treat them well!" to make sure this all ends without any finger pointing at the NRL and their duty of care.

      • I'm with you on this. How footy players get given special treatment and fundraisers is a joke when they earn more than politicians and surgeons etc

      • Thank god someone said it. The whole thing of getting him to 100 games for Souths, that was great, well done for that.

        Now this overkill. But the big issue I have is where is all this for Nathan Merritt? Not like he was a nobody either. He played Origin while at the club and scored over 140 tries and played 200+ games for Souths. Why isn't he getting similar treatment?

    • This is just a case of V'landys hiding behind Arrow. He knows anyone that would publicly call him out would be howled down. But V'landys screwed up by not booking a pre-match act and then watched the AFL smash it out of the park. Souths and the NRL did a great job with Arrow's 99th and 100th match celebrations.

      No need to wheel him out to cover the boss' poor planning.

      Arrow would be getting a lap of honour anyway as a retiring player.

  • He's only opened for Taylor Swift. But yeh let's all judge an artist based on who knows him on a Parramatta Eels supporter website with a very narrow demographic.
