Think of the most annoying, ignorant, petty, mindless dung beetle you have come across and multiply it by 10.

That's Tommyteako.

He's gone into hiding since the Broncs went out of the finals, he was a regular poster on WORL, not sure if he's posted here much.

<u>Team of the year </u>– Bulldogs <u>Underachieving team of the year </u>– Raiders <u>Surprise team of the year </u>- Warriors <u>Player of the year </u>– Preston Campell. Special mention of Nigel Vagana <u>Overated player of the year </u>– Andrew Johns <u>Buy of the year </u>– Jason Taylor <u>Most promising talent </u>– Braith Anasta (backs), Jason Ryles (forwards) <u>Joke of the year </u>– Wayne Bennett's media games, along with the Tallis 'will he - won't he' episode. Bill Harrigan and the Eels have been successful during ten of their encounters this year, as someone mentioned earlier. Coincidence? I thinks not. <u>Dummy spit of the year </u>– Wayne Bennett in conection with the Hodges inccident. <u>Creative accountancy award </u>– Excuse my stupidity, but I don't understand whatthis award means. <u>Funniest poster of the year </u>– Raging Bulldog and his work over at WORL for a couple of weeks had me in stiches. Over here at LWOS, Mud and Blood with his short but effective posts.

Here's a post that was posted on WORL only a short while ago..


"Brett Kimmorley this afternoon has signed a 3 year deal to play with the Sydney Roosters under the guidance of Ricky Stuart. He has acceppted less money to play with the Roosters than offered by the Dragons, the only remaining club chasing his signature. The reason for this other than the opportunity to work with Phil Gould and Ricky Stuart is he wanted to play for a club that had a realistic chance of fighting out the 2002 Telstra Cup and felt the Dragons would not be as competitive due to a player drain at the club"


Iwas also informed of this yesterdayby a close media friend of mine, and that's why I said in my post above that he WILL play for the Roosters.
