Funny true league stories

[happy_tiger]

I've heard a few over the years
One of the funniest I ever heard involved ex NSw and Roosters player Marty Gurr
A NSW selector approached Marty and said "Keep battling away boy we've still got our eyes on you '
Only problem was Marty Gurr at the time had been retired for two seasons :roll
Anyone else got any they'd care to share

Apparently after Fuifui Moimoi played his first game for Souths (in premier league), in which he played 10 minutes, he rocked up at training on Monday and trained for 10 minutes then walked off the field. When the coaching staff asked him what he was doing he said "I play for 10 minutes, I train for 10 minutes"

There was a story in the 70's of Dallas Donnelly swallowing live goldfish at the Woy Woy pub. Unsure if true or a myth.

Laurie Daley "uncorking himself" in full view of team mates and Bob Hawke after 1989 GF win

Three Words: Julian O'Neil…..Dubbo

Julian O'Neill definitely tops it.

Although Nate Myles gave him a run for his money.

yeah But Julian O'Neill got it into a shoe.. a SHOE! - pretty careful aim for someone that drunk.

Nate, well….. he had a whole hotel hallway to contend with.

I think the funniest league story is the ARL/Super League War and how 85% of league followers think News Ltd ruined the game….

One of Arko, Quayle and Gould's best :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

Sam Backo (i think) on a NZ tour reading signs and wondering where the place "Tak-e-a-way" was -lots of signs so it must be a popular place!!!
