Bumper Farrell - they said you'd never make it!

[Frenzy.]

A little before Ainscough's time, and I suspect that Covell is a way off from being a career winger-skipper.

But Boland was a fine winger.
He's still doing TV commentary for the Qld Cup and looks like he could pull on some boots tomorrow.

Of course. He'll have to wait till he moves into the pigs for a regular gig

Of course by then he'll be captain of the Kiwis as well.

Between Boland and Ainscough I'm barren. Can't think of another though I'm sure there have been a few that had short stints.

 

[brooksy19]

lol, thats Awesome, go Luke!

 

[girvie]

Covell will probably play five-eighth.

 

[Inferno]

Played halfback in his junior days.

 

[t-ba]

Played halfback in his junior days.

Luke Bailey did as well. Webcke too IIRC.

Or did Covell play some Junior Reps there?

Ziggy Niszczot?

 

[Captian_Klutz]

Good on him.

When was the last time a winger was captain ?

Unless he's playing centre ?

Matt Geyer Two weeks ago.

 

[keeney]

I think Mad Dog was captaining when the actual captain went off a couple weeks ago.

 

[Gene Krupa]

How desperate are Chokenulla! :lol:

 

[Mal Meninga]

Congrats to Covell - Deserves it.

I've seen Matt Geyer play on the wing as captain and the Storm have been fine, similar success will be ensured with the dynamo.

 

[BWNB]

Great player, great guy, deserves all the accolades he gets.
HE deserves a premiership ring!

 

[badav]

:lol: :lol: :lol:

Good luck with that!

 

[The Mighty Panther]

HE deserves a premiership ring!

He'd better change clubs then

 

[effnic]

I know this is a horrible thing to say but i kinda wouldnt mind Manly loseing just so i can read the gem thread that would follow from BBSF. It would be more entertaining than any football match.

 

[Estoboy]

i remember being at balmain leagues after the tigers GF win with BBSF. Covel was there and we both went up to him and cheered him on - even though he wasn't a tiger!

Oh the good memories!

What a guy! He deserves it!

Next up:
6. Fitzhenry (c)

 

[Kingytek]

Good work Covvy, you deserve it mate.

FYI, He won me a premiership as halfback and he kicked one on the sideline at fulltime!
He eat's pressure for breakfast....

your kidding aren't ya? just go back to any post Cronulla win threads with covell in the team, even his lack of involvement would be considered Churchall-esque amongst some of the dingbats here.

I can't believe I'm saying this but...Go Manly!!! puhlease!!!!

 

[Titanic]

How about Opes Anderson aka Woolmer? Wasn't he captain, coach and wing in Pommieland? I have know Dane Nielsen since he was a kid and reckon he'll brain 'em - go you li'l Devil - Steve'll be proud!!!

 

[Jimbo]

The bloke has had to overcome extraordinary obstacles given the nature of his supporters

It's not like he's playing for the Dragons Willow...
