CEO of the Bulldogs flies to Bagdad to watch a young Iraqi play rugby league and is suitably impressed and signs him to a one year contract.
In the trial match the Bulldogs are down by twelve points with only ten minutes left. Hasler gives the young Iraqi the nod and on he goes. The kid is a sensation, he scores three tries in ten minutes and wins the game for the Bulldogs.
Hasler is thrilled and so are the other players and fans.
When he comes off the field he phones his Mum to tell her about his day.
"Hello Mum, guess what? I played ten minutes today and we were down and I scored three tries and won the game. Everybody loves me, the fans, the media"
"Wondeful "says his Mum, "let me tell you about my day. Your Father got shot in the street and robbed, bullets were sprayed over our house, your sister and I were ambushed and beaten, your brother has joined a gang of looters and all the while you were having such a great time".
The young Iraqi is very upset.
"What can I sat Mum, I'm sorry".
"Sorry, you're sorry?" says his Mum, "It's your fault we moved to Bankstown in the first place.
