Just found out some interesting news

I ran into my old high school mate on the weekend at the shops and turns out that his younger sister married the son of Brett Kenny.


He showed me pics and said he'd try to organise a meet-up for me and Brett.

  • Bert was my favourite player growing up. 
    My old man absolutely loved him and as he was involved in footy circles, I did get to meet him. 
    They say never meet your heroes and damn that is true a lot of the time but Bert was always gracious and giving of his time. 

    • I remember walking past him in Parra and he was in his sparky gear. I was maybe 9 and was in awe of the great man.

  • Where and when mate? I might just happen to be there. 

    • I'm not too sure but hopefully it'll be sometime this month.

  • Make sure to use a rubber, Bert's a stud.

  • man ParraPride ,,my absolute favourite Eels player ... nice one!.

    Should be an immortal I do rate him over Sterlo even though Peter got most of the individual awards

"Please mythical sky fairy, let there be clear evidence of player tampering etc from these subpoenas. Something exposing collusion between Storm and NRLHQ about the whole thing would also be great."

"From what Ive read it only hit 450k with an ARU top up and they refused to come to the party. The average SR player earns significantly less then the equivalent NRL player in Australia."

"To my thinking, simply adhering to your contract is a restraint of trade. That's sort of the idea. By releasing him we afforded him more freedom than what he had before, the only proviso being he couldn't join one of our competitors."

ANY MORE SIGNINGS???

I've been frustrated recently about the work we have been doing in the open market. Jonah's alright for a year and JDB is solid but he's getting old. I feel we need more in the forwards and some a replacement outside back. All I have seen is links…
