Hope you're doin' OK Tad :)

I noticed a couple of days ago that Tad hadn't been around - and today I noticed that his old posts aren't on the site and thus he is no longer a member.

Tad was a kind sole and a regular poster on here - he had a passion for social issues and was always keen to participate in discussions on any social/current affair type issues. I didn't always agree with his views but Tad was a gentle fella who was never deliberately abusive, aggressive or robust in his language and - even if he upset someone - there was never any intended malice or aggression in his posts.

Tad, if you read this mate, I would like you to know that there are plenty here who believe the site is poorer for your departure.

I hope you're doing well mate and I hope to see you back on here sooner rather than later.

Cheers brother :)

  • I'd like to echo those sentiments Kramer.

    I've always enjoyed Tads input to the site, and even though like you I didn't always agree with his views, he was always thoughtful and respected others views.

    If you're out there Tad, come back mate, we miss you!

  • Well said Kram, and agree on that. Hope Tad is ok..

  • Top blog mate, Tads a great guy with a kind heart, hope hes ok and not gone for good.

    Does anybody have any contact details for him?

    Come back Tad!

    • Snakey, I've contacted him. You're right, he's a great guy, mate. As are you.

  • Great blog, Krams. I'm a big fan of TAD, and you're right he's a wonderful person. He has always had my respect. A wise, gentle and creative soul. I've sent him a message outside the site, and I'll let you know what happens.

      • Thanks Mick, TAD's a top bloke. Really glad so many have realised this. I can't praise the guy enough.

  • Jeez you're a good bunch of blokes - hand on heart - all of you :)

    HoE and Pop, if you manage to make contact with Tad let kim know he belongs here, with us (I know you will).

    Cheers lads - fucking legends!

  • I'll throw my hat in the ring too! 

    Come back Tad! I can't fight all these right wing lunatics on my own ;-)

  • Come back, Tad. We all miss you. Even Snake's tiny little heart burns for you. 

  • Come back Tad, your open & honest posts are always appreciated, especially by Snake.

    Here is Snakey at the re-opening of his local pool. Just like you Tad he believes in honesty.5184372068?profile=RESIZE_930x

"I said in my post that Fletcher might have had a chance, considering he was an aussie schoolboy. Do you think he would've been a 14 or even a half for this NSW team?"

"We've had 3 in 2023 and 2024 in NSW I think. Tuivati both years, Sanders, Arthur, Talagi as well. I think Michael Gabreal too?
So yeah, good crop. And the likes of Bloomfield and Fletcher would've had a chance if it wasn't for injury/rugby. "

"Bamblett is a beautiful runner of the football at fullback. Glides across the ground. He has a major obstacle for the next 5 years in Longi .  He is more than capable of playing 6 and has game awareness and eyes up footy ability. Very talented boy. "

Looks like bamblett has been called in to the blues side at 18 man with Rex falling out and possibly will be named to start come game day. We now have 4 players in the squads in Bamblett, Petrus, Ryda and Koina. Is this our best rookie class in a…
