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.

"In a positive note, I watched Su'A very closely before he got sent off and he is exactly what we need in the backrow, should be a good signing"
"Nah there is plenty of talent coming through the grades. Just need to ensure we develop them properly."
"HFK?"
"Lorima had a good moment but like usual they fail to give him good ball. Bell was the best player for us all year. Capovilla improved as the season went on. Finished the year very strongly. "
"Ea what about the matt's players? In particular Bell and capivella?"
"Yes and should be motivated after his start last year. Hope he goes well seems like a good fella"
"CHT is a great 6. His defence is first rate. Dylan Brown type D. I think the Warriors keep him. And looking at that club right now I'd stay there for a handshake deal. They could be anything and are miles in front of us. "
"Prof Daz, there's a difference between the teams mate. Penrith have been going gang busters and us not. I feel Moses hasn't been near his best all year as I've said above and he needs to be. "
"Mate, it's a fairly simple game and I know we or I am an armchair critic, but when he was kicking well last year we did well; to me Moses hasn't been fit all year and maybe he brought this into the season and it's been compounded now. He has Volkman…"
"I watched panthers HM today as my nephew plays for them, they were knocked out by the roosters. They were on the back foot from the kick off giving away a penalty for being in front of the kicker, made too many errors and pretty much played down…"
"Scott Wisemantel is responsible for the attack and style of play everyone including yourself was ranting about.You can't have it both ways.JR hired both of these guys Wisemantel and Mills if there no good like your portraying what does that say…"
"Not even close to a powerhouse. We're a cubby house at the moment dressed up as a powerhouse . Have been for a long time "
"EA do you have concerns that the clubs long term plan to win a premiership is centred on these kids coming throu and being quality players. Or are we actually sitting very well with individuals."
"Big chance that the 40 years without a premiership will turn to 50 years +.
The club is not a powerhouse. Powerhouse clubs win. "

Drinking the pre season Kool-aid
We were drinking the Kool-Aid from day one of the pre-season. Big gulps. Every little thing in the off-season felt like proof we were onto something. The Lomax stance? Finally, we’ve got a backbone. The club stands for something. Love it. Pezet on a…

What’s the Deal with De Belin?
We’re down to a third rate squad, yet he’s still coming off the bench. Is he carrying something, or just not in favour at the moment? He was brought in as a key signing and used to play big minutes at the Dragons ... I know that doesn't count for…

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.
