Denis Roman never fit in.
Hall of fame
Five championships
Multiple player awards

Coach Jackson did his best with him but 100% could never control Dennis. They let Rodman have his own rules and that's what got the most out of him.

How funny was it when the coach let him go for a 48hour binge in Los Vegas. To Micheal Jordans disgust. And sure enough they had to send a search party after him. Turned up five days later, goes straight into the game and kills it. How Phil Jackson managed him is a miracle.

Sam age as Burbo .... come on up young Burbo

Why not just run out the U18s next round?

Like the piece in the Tele about Turbos comments concerning Albert

'I've watched him play growing up, he's the same age as my little brother Ben. He's a freak of a player. He's going to be awesome. Its so unfortunate that he is coming off two knee reconstructions but you can see it at training, he's a freak'.

Good to read a positive report from a player well regarded in the game. Hope his dad reads it because its along side Turbo he could play. Sort of thing needed to be said to encourage him to stay...hopefully.

Turbo has done a lot of watching he and Albert will go great guns together, I just hope that isn't side by side in the stands on crutches.

they may actually go better than the 1st side did against sharks, dragons, riff and rabbits...

I understand John changed his mind about letting Albert remain at Manly when the club agreed that the new stand would be called

I heard that John was being welcomed back to the club as an advisor on Digital Security...

Probably not 😉
Might win the egg and spoon race, we are pretty slow

18th man. Surely another Des stitch up.

 

[Ned]

named as N0.18 will that be enough for the silvertails selection team?

No!

 

[KaZa]

He will start. Theres no way he starts with Jetski at centre. Hoppa to fullback and Funa to centre. Its the obvious move. If he plays with Jetski.. Des should be sacked immediately after confirming that line up.

"No way" - you wouldn't think so but I bet you're not confident he won't KaZa...

The obvious move to me is Hoppa to jetski's centre spot. Funa has 4? games under his belt, played FB last week. You don't start rookies at FB.

What is that flog Gosiewski doing in the team?

 

[ricardo]

If he really is 18th man will Des bring John in to present him with his training tracksuit?
