Jye Mullane.

That name brings back some memories of dark times.

Must have been shit if he brings back memories of dark times more than Robson.

P.S who the f**k are Dallalana and Sargent? Do they deserve the title of 'legend'?

What a list of superstars turning out for Gal. They had to wheel ET (who never played with Gal to the best of my knowledge) out to make it look in any way respectable.

Can’t wait to see how slow Covell has become now he’s been retired for a few years.

I've had season tickets down at Cronulla now for about 15 years and the guys that used to sit behind us originally used to call Covell 'lightning'.

Always made me smile (usually we were getting flogged)

I had a beer with him the other day at the shark cast party.
Good dude.
Funny bloke.
It was a great night. I was with him, Gav Miller and Jon Docking until close at some joint in Cronulla. I've known the Cov for 12 years or so. Top fella.
This vid shows that he was more than a decent footy player too.

He was a great player
Made plenty of much higher rated players look stupid.
A genius goal kicker on top.
