yes was talking to Stanley Gene the other day and he was saying how PNG will play the game with a smile on their faces , he thinks a few more will be signed up by Superleague clubs aswell

They are slippery and fast in attack... getting stronger too. But still dodgy on defence... but improving slightly with some beefed up and match-fit forwards. SL would suit them... they could well add some spice into it.

many in NRL ? or have Aus NZ nicked the best for their national sides  

A few... they used to mainly come through the Qld feeder clubs but now they also come direct to NSW and get their first games here.

I'm not such a huge fan of the Morris twins... although they are good finishers... they were quiet this year. Better options available. Forwards and halves pretty much the form/experienced players with a couple of rookies in the squad.

NZ rested 5 or 6 players for the Cook Is match... so they will have power and experience across the park... and SBW has never lost a BIG game!  Scary thought that, isn't it?

SBW is a freak of a player i can see him winning this then another season with the Roosters before winning the World Cup with the All Blacks in 2015

Same here. Then maybe a boxing title after that...  

i was talking to a mate of Lee Radfords the other day and he said Radders wants a fight against SBW as he fancies hitting him  

Would be a good match up. I'd like to see him under pressure of any kind, tbh.  

Radford has had a few boxing matches but is getting on abit ( i didn't say that if you ever read this Radders honest ) but he is a hard nut so would certainly give Sonny Bill a whack or two .

SBW is just so fit and alert... he gave Solomon Haumono? a decent work over and you could see that he was not as well prepared as Sonny Bill.

He is the kid at school who was good at everything

Except the school bits...  He was probably always in the gym.

yes we had one of those always better then everyone else at every sport , it was so amusing when years later i was throwing him out of pubs

really? ha ha!
What about the SBW bombed try? The sports shows here feasted on that yesterday.

Yes he was tall for his age but after we left school i filled out and he stayed the same , still thought he was gods gift though and was a right pain in the arse when drunk and didn't like being told to leave

Did you have to frog-march him out the door ever?

frog marched and thrown through the door on occasion , he tried to bottle me once on his way out

Sounds like a real problem. Low form with the bottle. Did he land on his feet outside?

Not all the time  

 Gravel or concrete?

concrete , he had a real problem with me for a few years always seemed to end up drunk at the club and if i missed him coming in he was trouble going out

Was this at a local near you or did you work in the city area?

city center , i must of been mad

Bad luck that he frequented the same place. Have you bumped into him lately or was this a while ago?

saw him about 3 years ago , i think he moved away . He got into it with a doorman from another pub who messed him up bad before that and i think that knocked some sense into him

It's sad how some people don't learn quick enough.

Glad to be out of that world now to be honest

Have you ever seen John Godber's play Bouncers Kenny? Hull Truck Theatre have done toured it a few times so it must have been on round your way. If you've never seen it try and go, it's hilarious and heartbreaking in equal measure and you of all people will understand.

Yes i have seen it a couple of times , it is funny and true in parts

Apparently it was based on Kenny's real life experiences...  

Did ring a few bells  

But that's all in the past now...  

The wife doesn't want me revisiting it either  

Fair call. You're a much wiser guy now.
Maybe you can do some freelancing detective work?  

I am going to become an ideas man

Kenzo de Lille would give Edward de Bono a run for his money.  

i can see a future in that

Sort of east meets west. You'll just need to perfect the persona... thin moustauche, rimless glasses, and a unique mixed accent.
Cage fighter by night.

i see myself as a modern day Yoda

 Are your ears really that big?

you know what they say about men with big ears don't you

good listeners too

that's what i ment .......................good hearing

and if you have a long index finger... or the toe (next to big toe)... that means?

your ET ?

ha ha... apparently not. You have good balance and stamina.

5 minutes and i'm gone

Where are you going?
I should get out and do something but the cricket's about to start. Yesterday was our best day in a long time. It brought back memories of times when things always seemed to go well.

I can honestly say i haven't watched a minutes play this series

You haven't missed much. It's on too late for you anyway.
