Attended the sportsmans lunch at Burliegh yesterday with Fatty as guest host.
I didnt hear him on the footy show but when questioned re the fiasco last Friday he made it clear when questioned by the anti manly punters(what a shock) he wasnt overly concerned about the biff itself,but more the stupidity of both sides getting involved in R25 and losing key players.He had a huge wrap on Glen and doubts we can win without him.He also gave a big wrap to Manly's spirit and said they would not lie down.Gave particular wrap to Smokin Joe and Rodney and siad he watches Manly train now and again and is extremely impressed with their intensity which he reckons we wont lose.To be honest he had some pretty good points and still has a genuine feeling for the club IMO but doubts we can win after losing players and momentum.
Not sure why he would bag us so bad on footy show but probably because it is so bad now they need the controversy.Still disappointing he did so given his real feelings on the matter were mainly to do with discipline,not the brawl/violence itself.
