Round 18 v Roosters 3/4 Conversions 0/0 penalty goals

I'm pretty sure that's the only reason he was signed. The fact that he has missed so many is concerning considering he contributes little else.

Danny Wicks debuted for St George in Rd10 2006. He played in the 14 jumper and scored a try.

Hey stats guys, I wonder how many of the current Eels team had scored on debut?

He is kicking at 77.9% for the year.
Our try conversion rate is at 75% which is 4th best in the comp so far.

The novel 'Catch 22' was going to be named 'Catch 18'. But another book called 'Mila 22' (or similar) came out just before going to print. So you could well have found yourselves in a Catch 18 situation.

I think you will find it was called Mila 18 Barry

Interesting fact: Barry hasn't actually read Catch 22.

Probable fact: Barry isn't even 22.

Half correct. I read the first 150 pages or so and left the book in a pub somewhere.

And yes....it is Mila 18.

I will read it one day.....I didn't mean to leave it in the pub. I bought another copy a while ago....but just can't bring myself to start reading it again from p.1

Greatest novel ever written

That would make it about 75% right. It's a bloody long book
