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

"He has that aggressive side which I think we need in first grade. Had big hype as a junior. That acl set him back but I am beginning to see why he was so rated as a junior."

"HT.
-First try MA asleep at marker.
- second try poor read by Doorey at centre left lumelume stranded. But Cini should have still stopped the try.
- ran straight through the middle from 10m out. Think it was Makatoa and Parker as the defenders."

"Decent yardage to start the sets. Has not been given a chance in attack. They did score a try on his wing but it was hard to tell if he actually took the sharks player out or not."

BEM replied to paul taylor's discussion Dogs are the real deal this year.
"A couple of years ago, myself and some others said the dogs would be a top 8 side and we would drop down the bottom.
Not one I wanted to be right about.
I bet Mahoney is loving playing in a team with a fast backline."
