Ecniv Eels Bill Moss was awarded the Order of Australia today as reported in the Sydney Morning Herald. The Bill Moss story is one of achievement over adversity. That is why he was awarded the O A. I wont go into the adversity, even though the Herald did so, because I believe it impinges upon Bill`s privacy. If one wants to know about that then they can read the SMH. It is enough to say the award was justly awarded to Mr Moss--and that is coming from a bloke--me--who does not believe in awards generally.( I think it rubbish that Prince Phillip has been awarded a Knighthood in same announcement!) Bill Moss will be good for the Eels such that I think all members and others on this site can give full support to Bill Moss in his endeavours. This is a precis of what was rejected. i hope this though OK.
Sorry Robert, I thought you were turned down by the Eels Membership committee or a moderator.

Ecniv Eels our e-mail have just crossed each other. There is no apology needed. My message just sent to you explains, I hope, the Bill Moss story and discussion as you asked. Cheers.
I think Moss is a genius and all round good guy. We are lucking to have him as a Eels supporter.
I was brought up in South Wenty were dad and mum bought what they called a third of a fibro house so I know what background his was brought up in. Struggle street and luckily I have it better than my parents did as this country has an excellent public school system.
"Thanks LB I didn't realise they could swap positions.....I thought they had to stay in their designated square's marked on the field.....what are those squares used for if you dont stand in them?"
"That's a shame. I wasn't really sold on him due to his age unless he was replacing Junior or Hopgood for a year or 2 max but then this came up on my feed and he was smashing Nathan Brown.
It was when he was young but even when Brown played for us…"
