    Does Parker / Suli hold their centre positions ?

    Billy Bradstreet lived up around Seaforth and I think went to Manly CB school. I know he played junior R L (C grade) for Christian Bros. because he flattened me once in a tackle. Think the family originally are from the south coast and his son played state cricket for NSW.

    Does Parker / Suli hold their centre positions ?

    What I can remember of the lead up to 67 Kangaroo tour was the St George clique really looked after Branson in those trials, Fulton never really had a chance. In some of the trials (or for NSW) Bozo got to play with Raper, Billy Smith, Pop Clay etc. He spent most of the time trying to catch...

    Apparently according to Fox news the new government Covid-19 app has got bugs. Irony. What's next. :(

    Eagles Angels

    Bump @Woodsie, thought your post the most appropriate to bump As the club seems to be heading in the right direction with member communication, special events etc. I reckon if they could re-establish the links with the Eagles Angels it would be the icing on the cake. Always thought this was...

    One ref again to save millions?

    Just goes to show how much smarter the referees have become. RL started off with a no tackle rule because referees couldn't count. After years of practice they got good enough to count to 4, moving forward and years later achieved what we see today being 6. Some even achieved 7 but got severely...

    Am I missing something here. If it were Jake or Tom or anyone who had been given a flu shot that started sneezing , coughing etc. wouldn't the same isolation rules etc. apply. I am all for vaccination but I don't believe a flu shot guarantees you won't get a dose of it. Even if was a much milder...

    The NRL should of just implemented the old FIFO rule. A bit fascist but still. "FIT IN OR F**K OFF".

    Cue the numbnuts .. 1st in .. Bryce Cartwright

    This thread has been hijacked by the omnipotent mob. Interesting arguments on both sides but I think Paul Simon nailed it in the song the Boxer. To wit "A man hears what he wants to hear and disregards the rest." Note to myself: Be careful who you might choose to invite to dinner..

    Well played PVL - go hard

    Global Eagle is correct. Maybe this was very localised slang at the time. Loses a lot of romance just calling them condoms. They were social media to assist social interaction. A deal maker or breaker at times.

    Well played PVL - go hard

    Ah.. the joys of social media eh! I guess i was lucky because when I was young and reckless the only social media we had were called 'rubber go-a-heads" and even they could cause some angst.

    Site running slow for anyone else?

    Just tried the same. I'm no guru but that points to the ads taking all the time to load. Half the price of a slab and your fixed. :)

    Site running slow for anyone else?

    I intended to upgrade to premium membership this month anyway so I just did and the site speed went from snail mail to ballistic straight away. Perhaps it was coincidence but I think Dan deserves to earn a quid anyway with all the work he does for this site.

    Remembered a late starter. John '"cracka" McDonald was a professional runner and at one time held the world record for 400 metres. I knew he did some pro running in Queensland but did not know the extent of his career. apologies if he has already been mentioned.

    Throw in Bob Bartlett, wing or centre for Manly and won Australian Lawn bowls championships. Not an established boxer yet but will nominate Darcy Lussick as a champion for flattening that flea Hodges. Manfred Moore (NFL running back) to Newtown rugby league as ball boy.

    A lot of European soccer players are champion divers. More seriously I knew of this guy but couldn't remember the name. Alan Walker, he played RU for Australia (which does not count I know) but also cricket for NSW and went on an Aussie tour to South Africa. played first grade RL for Sea Eagles...
