If we'd had a forward properly in position it would have been an easy mark and goal. Very clever or very instinctive.
    I do remember that, but I wasn't sure who got their boot to it.

    Yes I saw that clip as well but I thought he should have been pinged for running too far. Didn't bounce the ball once.

    They gave him yards for being a Rugby convert!

    The Missed Tackle with Face Plant (degree of difficulty 3.2) on Sunday was worth the price of admission alone. Loving the Mike.

    Kiss my foot.

    As I never miss a ressie game nor a home game unless seriously under threat from an undertaker it is quite in order to visit me any time you like.......unfortunately this year I am seat floating a bit as my "platinum" seat has restricted viewing.

    Loved Mike getting the publicity and the winner barely got a mention.

    You got a Platinum Seat with restricted viewing? I'd be complaining about that with the rates paid for Platinum!

    Well done Primmy The IQ of the footy media just rose.

    I struggle with the 'unsung hero award' concept. As a soon as a player wins the award, he's no longer unsung. I suggest they rename it the Hitherto Unsung Hero Award. Or 'The Hero Formerly Known as Unsung But Now Being Sung Award'.

    If they're unsung, they couldn't really be considered a hero could they? Therefore I would suggest "'The Player Not Formerly Considered a Hero and Formerly Known as Unsung But Now Being Sung and Therefore Also Now Considered a Hero Award' ?
