So many wonderful PI memories.

I remember the Ben Ross v The President gym blow up and people had to pick a side. I started with support for one but as time wore on, being a sly and disloyal type, I moved across to the other.

And of course, the Craig Trindall army. To this day, I am of the view he was a gun player and deserved a lot more opportunities. One of my favourite players. I think he was a personal friend or acquaintance of @murraymob I hope he’s doing ok. I’d like to meet him one day.

If he was around today, we would let brooksy go and snap him up. Awesome player never given his proper dues. Built for the modern day game imho. X factor player.

Craig was one of the most talented kids I have ever seen .A mt druitt boy came from a broken family and just could not stay out of trouble ..he was that good he after getting moved on by Penrith got picked up by parra same result then Souths grabbed him before ending back at Windsor then back into Penrith
Sadly his last trouble ended up getting him punted from Penrith and no club wanted him then

Pretty decent article. Agree with most of it.
Same here. I wonder what other "issues" there are with Taylan May? I know that he tweeted about conspiracy theory, so it is unlikely that he will be vaccinated, and about the lack of support, in his eyes, about Tyrone, seems like there are others?

Craig wouldn't be related to Braydon from the Sharks?

I heard some stories as well. Mostly very frightening ones about his home and social life. He was very brave. If ever any player had an excuse about domestic issues, it was him. But as you know, not once did he make any excuse or blame anyone else for his troubles.

I even heard the story about when he went missing and people were very concerned for his safety.

Your better half needs to clean up that car Janey, but congrats on running a Toyota.

Over the years, tsp car history is one of broken hearts. Ive destroyed scores of cars.

Family member has bought a Tesla. Stuff global warming, this thing goes like the bloody clappers!

Sometimes I go out hunting for the v8 muscle beasts or ponces in their Mercs etc and let the train set engine do the talking.

Its so fast, you can break the speed limit off the line at a large intersection.

But Toyota’s are easily the best of the mainstream cars. It takes a lot to destroy them in the home garage. Well done Janet.

My next car will be a Tesla, plug it into the toaster when I get home. As a side effect, the toast will be done in about a micro-second!

MG in real life is the opposite to MG the image the tales .One of the softest kindest humans you would ever be blessed to meet
The 1990s version would laugh at today’s kind version
Yeah I amended my post, but there’s a lot of good stories about him. A Colyton boy, really tough streets back in the day. None of this fake self description. They had to be able to handle themselves physically because the fracas was always on. Way of life for young lads. All my Panther friends from the day were and are still tough.


Thankfully, the world has moved on.

Wally Lewis is another guy who frequently uses his fame and celebrity to help others.
On urgent request of family, Wally has even turned up to meet people dying in their homes. Also soft and kind hearted.
Lots of good stories out there.

On that theme, nothing, and I mean nothing, beats Trent Hodkinson, when he took his now deceased fan, to her formal, made my day.
