"Good stuff Parra he is a gun fullback hard to come by and locking him up is smart great re signing "
"C'mon AI, surely Kautoga gets the left edge spot. What's the point in developing him, seeing huge progress and then dropping him after one injury. Williams was good there but he is good enough that he can play either edge or even in the middle.…"

"Exactly and I reckon he signed a while ago - MON wheeled this out now as his arse cheeks were beginning to part."
"Look I love it, Iongi is an absolute weapon but for once it would be nice to get some NEW SIGNING news
Seems like MON pushes this stuff out when he needs to release some pressure. Useless prick. Iongi probably extended over a month ago."

"Geez, our blokes would have more front end than John Holmes."

Mick and Peter Mortimer sat directly behind me at the 09 grand final, absolutely top shelf bloke, they were both very pleasant and quite happy to chat.
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.

😆😆😆 far out lol
Bit overrated though, wouldnt want him kicking a goal to save your life.

As a centre he was defensively flawless and was impossible to put on the ground when carrying the ball.
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
