"If it means he comes early now, no point saints having him there if he missing several weeks. We use that time for him to learn our shapes etc, serves his suspension and is ready to go. Like the idea "

"All great points Pops, and always good discussions - can definitely see your point of view for sure.
100% with you on that last paragraph. Hopefully as you say, some of the guys get their chance sooner rather than later & take it.

"A clock’s right twice a day Poop… so technically I should be due any minute now. 😄"
"That's fine Nos, it was just my view as well. Good discussion points for future reference. Petrus maybe closer than you think, but again I don't see enough of him to substantiate the view. I realise petrus is not a middle btw.
If he is as good as EA…"

"Very true, Bobby.
With Dylan Egan & Ryan Couchman both due back next week, maybe they consider it but yeah, unlikely.

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.
