Just found out some interesting news

Posted by ParraPride on September 25, 2023 at 2:34pm in Other

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.

With this team right now I'd describe my expectations as being at the baby steps stage."

"No way we should pay talagi $500k. He is 2-3 years away from being worth that IF he continues to improve. If another club wants to pay him now then let them."

"Why, Arthur hasn't proven he is FG, Guymer looks good but has played 70 minutes of FG.
How about Ryles put his time into talking to players who want to be in the blue and gold."

"So we pay 500k because we think other clubs think his a future champ. If his about big dollars now see ya later. As Gus said his not worth what his asking.
Think you would pick up a decent proven back for half million dollars."
