Winging it
PARRAMATTA halfback Jeff Robson won plenty of admiration from Manly players when he turned up at the most heartbreaking NRL gathering of the year on Friday.
Just hours before his semi-final appearance against the Gold Coast Titans at the SFS, Robson joined a host of league stars at the funeral of Manly forward Glenn Hall's stillborn baby boy, Lachlan Mark Hall, at St Brigid's Catholic Church at Coogee.
Best mate and godfather of Lachlan, Mark 'Piggy' Riddell made a rushed trip from England with his fiancee Karli Smith before returning yesterday to play in a Super League semi-final for Wigan.
Manly legend Steve Menzies and his soon-to-be wife Suyin Condon were at the service after also flying in from England the previous evening.
The owners of the Sea Eagles, the Penn and Delmege families, were also there, along with all the Sea Eagles players.
