H Happy Birthday! I spent my birthday at Brookie this year too Vs. Storm. Glad they got the win for you!

I Interesting take. I was at the game and thought Parker did a great job. Yes, he got beaten once or twice (players with footwork seem to worry him) but for the most part, did his job defensively and made that break for our first try.

A better clubman would’ve said no to origin this year and concentrated on the club that pays his salary. Surely he owes the club that much. Selfish bloke who is made of glass.

And Toovey before this. **** off Penn.

Any idea why Weekes isn’t in the 17? Great to see Samuela get a run!

What a great call with hindsight. Spot on.

Im heading to Brookvale next weekend. I have a bad feeling already. Garrick will be a big out. Hopefully Jake can inspire the boys. I’ve lost faith in DCE being able to inspire the team.

Tuilagi was shocking tonight. Worst player on the park for mine. Pathetic tigers quality.

Great to hear!

Damn, thanks for the info. So this goes all the way back to 2005? If any bad blood was still present when Chad was working with Des, likely it’s opened up old wounds with his latest sacking. I agree - these grudges are not healthy. I hate reading these things when club legends opt out of these...

Do you know what these issues are related to? 😕

Although I believe the comeback game you're refering to was in 2005.

Lots on here were saying Des 2.0 would only end in tears. I had hoped both Des and Penn had learnt from past mistakes but I guess leopards don’t change their spots.

Wow, I never knew that. Rowdy became a bit of a journeyman after leaving us.. so it makes sense I guess.

Where on? Linkedin?

I agree mate, but it's still not the worst until round 1 next year ;)

Equal worst.

Woke left? Haha christ mate.

And soccer. My two nephews in Newport play the round game as do all their friends.

Y Yes, agree. That defensive stat which was only marginally better than Wests in 1999... is very sad indeed. Let's not forget, even the great Bozo lost 7 straight to start the '99 season before handing over the reigns to Sharp.
