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.

"Even last year despite missing the top 8, the Saints had a heap of tight games they lost.
They won't blow a team off the park but stay in the contest through their defence. As long as we don't get frustrated and make stupid mistakes our attack…"

"Ah fair point. But then again wouldn't they make more in Vegas? Maybe they did the math. "
"Hopgood was one of our best last year when he went to the front row, no chance of him being dropped."

"My life forbids me from leaving Western Sydney but I will be watching at my local with a ice cold pint of VB"
"Not that it overshadows vegas match, it gets big crowds in Sydney at Commbank. Eels v Dolphins at Commbank would garner 10,000-12,000 on a good night. Eels v Tigers usually gets 18,000-20,000. That's money for NRL."
"You'd think this would be obvious, but as LB said above an Eels Tigers vegas match would overshadow any other vegas match.

"This year magic round is our home game. Next year it's Vegas. I guess that's fine given we are no longer going to Darwin. l'm ok with not playing tigers. Keep those big clashes for back in Sydney. "
"Well they wouldn't do that. That fixture draws big crowds."
"Shit matchups. Should be Eels vs Tigers, and Storm vs Dolphins"
"The width of the feild won't favour the dolphins who rely on space"
"This will be a fun game, good matchup "
"JDB any day of the week over Hopgood. Over him, can find a mistake/penalty and is just a reserve grader"
"I am expecting a comfortable win here. 32-12 eels"
"Best underrated is good. Will it be modern players again?"

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.
