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

They gave us our free chances, our Get out of Jail moments, and we couldn't even settle down and take what is offered...we sort of took it then overcooked & handed it straight back in a panic"

"Unfortunately too many reserve grade players in this team and not a lot of upside in many .Limited skill set and very limited athleticism.Look at some of the other squads and even there body shapes .We look soft

"Defensively yes. Errors wise that you suggest, i would not put that down too much on coaching more so excecution. Which can be brought on by fatigue, frustration and the like. We are unfit and weak. "

"Too say those players don't make any difference is asinine. They make a difference. Enough to win more games then we lose? Probably not but we are a better team with all of them."
