Who as 5/8?

Great junior named Jamie Lyon

 

[Silver Eagle]

Will Pearsell or even Mania Rudolph

Will Pearsell or even Mania Rudolph

Pearsell is leaving

 

[maxta]

Rudolph is not comparable & though Pearsell is great at steering a Holden Cup team around the ground, Bird is shredding NRL defences to pieces...
If true....& the rumours have been there for a month...the perfect foil for DCE.

From Wikipedia:
"Jack has signed a life time deal to play under Brad Arthur at the Parramatta Eels. Apparently a Down syndrome supporter know as the " Chief" was able to convince him to agree to this deal which is partly funded by his special needs fan group known as "One Eyed Eels". Jack has stated how excited he is to only been required to be playing 26 games a year and having every September off."

Great junior named Jamie Lyon

Apparently he's a half good center as well they reckon!!

 

[MadMarcus]

The Down syndrome comment is on poor taste. I'd like to think most Manly fans are better than that.

This bs on Wikipedia might be enough to make the bloke have second thoughts about signing. I'd advise toning it right down.

Im going to check 4chan to get the real story.

Is bird going to sign or was all bs on wiki?

 

[KeithSheldon]

On the topic of Wikipedia did anyone get to read the Wikipedia article of DCE the day he announced his backflip? It was hilarious seeing the salt on that article.

Moley reckons there's nothing in it....... so it's probably happening.

I could make up fake signing news about players that don't exist and I would still be more accurate than Moley is.

It's **** we were kicking around based on some dot connecting. Maybe though it's a "where there's smoke..." situation. Certainly a little smokey feathered friends (to steal a @BOZO line)

One thing that is interesting - a 2018 spine of Turbo, Bird, Chez and Parcell... Wow.

 

[GoldenEagle41]

HAHAHA who did this???

 

[HoldenV8]

Sorry, bit its got to this point....

Doesn't seem like a massive vote of confidence when your coach says you can shift positions and go into a three way battle for that spot.

This seems more like an article to try to put out the fire. They are close to resigning him but it will be announced in a month? Just do it and announce it if it's that close.
