A bit off topic but.....Just picked up the easiest case of beer in a bet I think ever.
A guy I work with (a Sharks supporter) told me 2 weeks ago that Ricky Stuart would be coaching the Dragons next season. I laughed reminding him that Bennett was still under contract. Now this guy has a few connections at the Sharks and told me that Bennett has an out clause he'd be exercising soon. I asked who his source was and he wouldn't say so I asked him to lay a case of beer on it. Bet was made with Round 1 next year as a dead line.
After the events of the last few days I asked him to pay up based on even if Bennett did go there is no way St George could replace one of the best coaches in history with a guy who has been trying to avoid the spoon for the last 2 years, the backlash would be huge.
So yesterday at work I walked down stairs and low and behold Ricky Stuart is sitting there on a couch. Wanting my case of beer, I told him about the bet and asked him the question to which he replied "I'll go you halves in the case of beer".
Easiest bet I've ever won!:crazy:
