Can someone please check on Albert ?
He seems to have stopped posting all of a sudden.
Just for shits and giggles . . . below are some of "Jean Capdouze's" posts from nrlfan.
Tell me that's not 1000% our Albert.
Exhibit A, . . . . "Because he is often referred to as Timoteo.
Personally, as a cultural anthropologist I prefer the authentic ethnic "Timoteo."
In any case I am pretty sure that "Timoteo" is on his passport."
Exhibit B, your Honour . . .. "That is his original ethnic Polynesian name, Timoteo Simona. The same applies to Timoteo Lafai at the St. George-Illawarra Dragons.
Australians like to use the more familiar Tim."
Aaand to wrap it up, exhibit C . . . ."After extensive Googling I have not been able to find evidence of former Wests Tigers centre Simona's given name being Timoteo, even though as a Samoan it would be his likely given name. I was convinced that I had read it in the press. It is definitely the case with the fellow Samoan, St. George-Illawarra centre Timoteo Lafai, aka "Tim Lafai."
In the interests of certainty and accuracy I have changed the name in the title of the thread to "Tim Simona."
I regret the anxiety, pain and suffering that I might have caused by my bold leap into the intricacies of Samoan culture. It was certainly not my intention."
