  • Sorry preferably out westen sydney

  • My advice to the son wanting to be a mechanic is don’t. I work in the automotive industry and its a dying trade. The work is just not there any more. Service intervals are increasing and with electrification of cars soon to be the norm there will be less work to do. I have friends with workshops who complain about 2 things, hard to find a good mechanic to employ and second, work drying up. If he wants to do it for about 10 years and then move on to something else then fine however as a long term career I would not consider it.

"Out of them Xerri is the one that I feel is exception since I believe he is a victim of them trying to get Woods in with Burton at Centre. Also, cap space.
Unlike Tago and Timoko who seemed they are not wanted due to performance."

"Exactly this! The team still has A LOT of work to do, especially with defense, but no one in their right mind would have expected us to go anything but 0-3 against the broncos, storm and panthers (top 3 teams of last year).
Seems like too many…"

"Definitely a much better strike player than what we have. Timoko struggles with defense at times though, which is our problem at the moment, but nothing to lose I guess. Would be a good pick up if we don't over pay."
