AHH THE GOOD OLD DAYS

Well here we are its grand final day and it marks the end of another season and I thought I would just reflect o n seasons gone by 

I miss the old times of when you would have the old backyard Barbie with the family and selected mates and get half cut before the 3 o'clock kickoff 

When beer was full flavoured and full of hops .not the chemical made crap of today .AHH give me the old KB or DA any day 

When all this climate change talk was not an issue and people did not push their beliefs down  each other's throats one way or the other

When the warm and fuzzy brigade did not get their knickers in a Knott when some of us have said we dont go for female commentators or female Refs and touch judges .AHH bring Back Frank Hyde Rexy Ferris Ashton Alan Clackson .Hollywood Hartley .that tall cheating bastard from up north that used to referee the state of origin the grasshopper Gomersal .Ahh  the good old day's. But in saying all that I'll still watch the game tonight .just hope that its a good game .WHO to win dont really care as i dont go much on either team .just good luck to both teams and may the best team wins on its own merits and with out to much controversy and finally i just wish everbody and their family's a safe and happy grand final Day .but i still miss the good old days

    • Well that’s a pretty fair assessment their twin they were good times hey

  • Those were the days Wongy - back when there were at least half a dozen hot dog vendors outside the ground flogging doggies from those stainless steel contraptions - 50 cents extra for cheese.

    Check out this photo of a packed out Parra Stadium.Eels v Roosters 1987. I'm the tall bloke in the '86 style Parra Jersey with number 3 on the back (crow). Check my sweet mullet :) .  I was 18 - the fella to my left is my best mate, we've been going to the footy together (with others) for over 30 years. We graduated from The Hill to the Thornett Stand in 1989.

    Have a great grand final day mate - cheers :)

"This is where I'm hoping the clubs at in this area if we are like Pou is mentioned around 600 it's not good value for us that's another decent player in your top 30 that's development ready."

"He's not getting paid for what he's done, he'll be geting paid for what he's expected to do during the course of the contract. If he underperforms those expectations then he'll be on overs, but I expect Pezet to become one of the top halves in the…"

"That figure is much more believable in the circumstances. Of course Anasta didn't disclose figures but he stated we got him "cheap".

"What's he done in the game has he played for his country SoO what.We've just realeased an international half who was on 850-900 yet Pezet is reputable after 20 games I mean seriously.

"350K, if true, is a steal, Michael. On my own list, I had him around a bargain-priced 450K, based on what MON happily said about a "good price", his Ryles relationship, and what Anasta implied with everyone winning; except the Storm at this stage.…"

"Brisbane signed him to be their first choice halfback. That's a position worth big money. He's no rookie. He has already proven his potential, and the NRL has noticed. And on $1M he would still be earning $500k+ less than the top halves in the game."
