There's news today that Brisbane are affronted Cronulla had the temerity to announce Bird was leaving that particular club yesterday.
This disquiet coming from the Broncos is slightly amusing considering it had no qualms parading a young Anthony Mundine at a press conference 20-years ago, resplendid with a birthday cake and a football jumper while STILL being contracted to St. George.
Additionally, this was the same club that also actually encouraged Gorden Tallis to renege on a VALID contract with the Dragons around the same period. From memory, Tallis was the miscreant who 'presented' Mundine with his cake and new playing jersey while a laughing, adoring, and approving Wayne Bennett looked on.
This poor, miserable, narcissistic excuse of a football club has just set a new low benchmark in hypocrisy.
