Still, Dave Taylor has cured his homesickness, and is now a 9 hour drive from home, rather than 2 flights of 1.5 hours each........

I suppose an old fart like you probably would take 9hrs to drive from Burleigh to Brisbane. Most likely spending the entire time in right lane.

You'd probably get lost too.

Well shit me, Rockhampton is now a suburb of Brisbane?

Taylors from Rockhampton though? Or does the males side of the family disappear once you get married.

Oh yeah, it generally does!

Rothfield is a joke.

Compare the two articles.

SMH: Direct quotes from Lyon specifically stating he never contemplated leaving Manly this year and hopes to be there for the remainder of his career.

DT: Rampant speculation and rumour mongering that Manly are 'trying to convince' Lyon to stay. A single quote towards the end that denies the entire premise of their article.

Exactly and yet it's FAIRFAX who will die first. It's f**king wrong, man.

If I was homesick I wouldnt be driving to f*cking Brisbane for starters. But it seems only Queenslanders are sooks who get "homesick".

Maybe it's the bricks, roofs and electricity we have down here that makes Queenslanders unsettled.

This whole drama must be very stressful for Jamie. It must be hard enough getting invited to play Origin every year and not having the guts to do so!

I guess some people don't always do what others want them to do.

Everyone is missing the real issue here! Someone somewhere considers Champion to be strike centre!!

After watching him live in 2011 numerous times I would suggest it's a stretch to call him an NRL player.

He couldn't even strike a match.

THE drama over Jamie Lyon's future at Manly could easily have been averted.

When Titans boss David May phoned his Manly Sea Eagles counterpart David Perry to inquire about the champion centre's availability, he was left with the impression that the door was open.

Instead Perry should have issued a firm "hands-off" warning to his rival from up north.

The Titans offered $3 million over four years and they thought they had their man.

Poor Jamie Lyon was left to defend himself from suggestions he was walking out on his mates.
