Something to do with the National Under 20's comp perhaps??

Aren't they pissing off Premier League next year?

yea i would say that thats what it involves - im just excited for Blakey to be getting so much press straight after his debut!


If he did become a star, he would be a great media personality IMO :D

quite possably, but I'm not sure why they'd include Blakey when he's no longer eligible for the under 20's comp.

you might be right.

I doubt Parra would announce that with David Gallop present.
It's definitely an NRL announcement, not a Parra one.

Maybe Blake could add something like.

"I have recently made my debut in the NRL, and even after playing in a Premier League Grand Final it is a huge step up. With the Advent of the National Under 20's competition, that leap to the next level wont be that hard for the Players that will follow me"

Maybe HJ has declared he's gay when he was drunk, and lucky enough Blake & Dennis were there to witness this special occasion.

I think your right, but his invitation by DF is purely strategic. He wants Blake to feel as an important part of our future and that re-signing with us is the right thing to do.

Why bring Blake along though? he's a first grader now, why not bring Todd Lowrie?

it's about the national under 20's comp not the Jim Beam Cup ;-)
