    Vale John Sattler

    One of the greatest Rabbitohs of all , John Sattler has passed on at 80 years of age . Tough and as hard as they come Satts was the cement in the South’s forward pack of the 60’s and 70’s . Always a thorn in the teams of those years , perhaps more so Manly ( I don’t know why ? ) he will be...

    Shoosh !

    Just read Phil Rothfield’s - ‘ Monday Buzz ‘ in today’s Tele. He believes that a very senior NRL club offical is being accused of trying to entice a young St.George Illawarra player to break his contract . Young Phil also mentions that this is one for the integrity unit of the NRL to check out...

    Away from the game we all luv to our second best game we luv -

    The Ashes . Well our boys have done it in style and them some . Scott Boland is Australia’s new golden boy taking 6 for 7 this morning and the young debutant Green taking the final wicket - England all out for 68 . Their time on the field is perhaps best sum up by this gentleman : -

    Forum format . . .

    Has the Dragon Forum format changed from ‘ light mode ‘ to ‘ dark mode ‘ ? This is the second occasion within 3 days that it is in what appears to be a ‘ dark mode ‘ - anyone else or perhaps it is with my device ?

    Balmain Tigers coach Leo Nosworthy passes on .

    The Tigers coach of the 1960’s and in particular the 1969 Balmain side that triumphed over the almost unbeatable South Sydney side has passed away . Leo was a great player in his own right and he was the architect who planned the Rabbitohs downfall in one of the best Grand Finals played in that...

    Competition’s strugglers crying poor ?

    Just in from Fox Sports - apparently the poor sods are short of a dollar and are asking the NRL for salary cap relief due to Boyd Cordner’s constant concussions. I say no they should not been entitled to one damn penny . The reason is not one of vindictiveness against the club , but quite...

    Farewell David Bolton

    Balmain half/ five-eighth the great Dave Bolton passed on the 21st of January. I remember him as a real scheming English half who also had the ability of kicking some decent field goals . A player who talents went a long way in helping the Balmain Tigers win the 1969 Grand Final against the...

    Vale Dean Jones

    I hope that you gentlemen do not mind a change of sport , however the death of Australia’s tremendous run-getter Dean Jones requires a mention. An honest toiler at the crease , who was capable of racking up a decent score each time he went out to bat . May he find that they also play cricket...
