Cameron Smith AM & Johnathan Thurston AM: Queen's Birthday honours

[Mr Angry]

Hey I like Ponga when not an All Black.

Long live the colonies....

Brad Thorn has to be next.

I want to know why the greatest player to have ever lived, Billy Slater did not receive an awar,d. Disgraceful in my opinion.

He's $1.01 favourite to be named Origin Player of the Series this year.

 

[The Vaulting Violinist]

Billy Slater won this award before the reign of queen elizabeth II begun

And so he should be

 

[Life's Good]

The royals can go and f**k themselves.
Anyway some very well deserved and overdue awards for some great queenslanders and Australians.
Long live Australia

It must be bittersweet being a QUEENslander.

[MrBlack]

Is bittersweet how you would describe butthurt?

 

[King hit]

Wonder if people remember some of Thurston’s controversy over the years. He isn’t perfect like they want to believe.

Biggest media whitewash of my time

 

[Captain Apollo]

Cam Smith was recognised for his achievements in accounting or for his role in revolutionising refereeing?

More likely for being an onfield merkin.

 

[Life's Good]

Is bittersweet how you would describe butthurt?

I wouldn’t think so.

 

[Albert Rosenfeld]

I cannot wait for Queen's Birthday awards in the future going to James Tedesco, Latrell Mitchell, Luke Keary, Cooper Cronk and Joseph Manu.

Hey it is all good, Ser Shaun Johnson in amongst the realm, when he and Ser Nikora swam the Tasman and Braden the Brave of the Pacific Salmon, came south from the Northern its in QLD mofos.

God save the Pacific, except VFL players.

You're 1 signature away from a padded room and a tricky coat.

The state of Tedesco's choppers would make a Pommy dentist gasp. Latrell must have French blood the way he packs it in. Keary is Captain Concussion and will be flatout writing "Luke Keary" with his crayons in 20 years, adding "AM" will get him all out of sorts. Cronk showed his worth in 2018 GF; did nothin wasn't missed. I rate Joey Manu, needs more early ball.

So you agree with a Queen's Birthday Honour award to James Tedesco and Joseph Manu.

Well done Cameron and JT.
