Met the great man at his Gerringong Pub today for the first time. What a gentleman! Thanks for all the great memories over the years Mick.

"Yes definately. I have no issues with people having a go at someone either coach, player or admin for not doing a good job. But you know when they are not trying. I think taking Lomax to court was case in point Sarantinos, MON and board are trying."
"Dragons fans are claiming Tuilagi is better than Su'A and should swap. I agree, but you see Tuilagi is that good we need LPT as well to make up for his loss as he is you know so good."
"I rest my case🙄"
"Nobody got anything from the Lomax shemozzle and I am fine with that.
We could not get what we wanted but we made damn sure that Melb, Ugly Pete and Lomax didn't get what they wanted either. I am also fine with that.
Fuck 'em all, write it off, no…"

"He doesn't do the wheeling and dealing, its up to the recruitment team headed by mon to get deals done. The players ryles wanted he didn't get so was left with the scraps the club could sign."
"No Purdue, No Jenkins and no Xerri."
"You have no idea how recruitment works. JR gets the final say on who we chase, sign or re-sign, it's his job on the line."
"So in conclusion you really haven't concluded anything really accept you like knats and flies but very unsure about Eels 🧐 hmm 🤔 this is very interesting. "
"Purdue isn't leaving the Cows. He's been a fan since he was born and they're clearing the decks to make him a huge offer. No way he leaves. "

What another Boring Year for Eels Fans
Towards the end of the 2025 NRL season I think a majority of Eels fans had some form of optimism for 2026 hoping it might be a possible top 8 position for the Eels. However, this year has turned into one of the worst so far on record with Eels…

This man "THE CROW" is my all time fav EEL. When I played rep league as a youngster I tried to mould my gam and goal kicking around him
Very classy player and man 👏🏻👏🏻👊😎
Theres the carlo kiss of death right there.
Mick, please be safe in the next few days/weeks.
😆😆😆 far out lol
Bit overrated though, wouldnt want him kicking a goal to save your life.
Wouldnt want him coaching to save your life either
i was just throwing out a few crumbs HKF, looking for a nibble
Nice one Garry, good to see you got out ok, rumoured to be a few bodies buried under the Gerringong.
Your opionion mate. To be honest It was mentioned by the rep coach back in 84 when I played school rep footy that I played a bit similar to the crow. My all time fav and always will be
There is a reason he is the first "Champion" of Parramatta. Played in all of our Grand Final wins. One of the all time greats and worthy of Immortal status. I laugh at anyone who knocks him as a goal kicker. He held the all time ARL/NRL point scoring record for years kicking leather balls from sand mounds. More importantly, a champion human being. Great photo Garry.
Also needs to be remembered he didn't start playing NSWRL until he was 26 so his total points scored could have been higher if he started earlier.
