Balmain Tigers

Man, I was at that 62-5 drubbing! And we were the last to score. I think a try to Glenn Capelin in the dying minutes. My one and only trip to Lidcombe Oval!

I was there too. Don't think it was Glenn Capelin. Think it was the 5/8, who"s name escapes me.

It was definitely Glen Capelin. Scored down the right wing. 100%.

Do the Dragons have a Steeler on the sleeve?

No, they refuse to promote Port Kembla at all.

She was an obnoxious Pawwa fan and sitting not too far away from me,when Hartley gave Balmain a penalty (rare occurance) at Leichhardt she ran on the field and abused the crap out of him.

That’s Karen, Galvin’s mum, giving to the ref after the game last week. I could hear her screaming “I don’t care how shite he played, Gus said my boy was supposed to win this week”.

Fair Dinkum, you seen it live, that would’ve been a laugh. i grew up in a family of refs, and what Karen did to Hartley that day has always stuck in my mind. I had seen similar when Uncle BF was coming through the grades, but that was first grade and all the talk around the house. But what I have always wondered is did she jump the fence one hand on the fence, swinging both legs over style, like an Olympic steeplechaser, or did she clamour over it like some unco crazed Karen from The Druitt?

I thought it was Glenn , i used to work with him down at Pyrmont back in the day , Neil Whittaker also worked there

Did anyone else catch the Face to Face with Gary Schofield on Fox last night?

It brought a smile to this old blokes face.

I'm sorry, but rugby league was better in the 1980's.

Yeah, I watched it.
Good viewing hey.

He's before my time but I enjoyed his story and how well he spoke, also how positive he spoke about his time in the game and how he feels about the game now.
Very honest.

Jake Duke is a quality interviewer too.
