Indeed.
Though, if he'd said he nearly signed for an SL club it would have been believable, but that he might have dropped down to part time is just too daft for words. icon_lol.gif

Why? Rugby league is a short career and the offer of a full time job outside of rugby will see many part time players earning a lot more money than full time players especially at this level. Strangely an offer of a full time SL deal with no guarantee and at a team expected to finish in the bottom 4 also had little appeal.

He's already got a full-time job playing RL. He's happy doing it, and, if his circumstances were to change, part-time jobs will still be available for the foreseeable future. It's illogical that a player, still approaching his peak, would step backwards from, however it is dressed up, a decently paid job with a great lifestyle attached - especially when any alternatives remain ready and waiting for some indeterminate time in the future.

Someone at the club told me the RFL are paying Smith's wages. #RFL's pets.

The phrase politically correct is in itself politcally incorrect so should be rephrased politically stupid! If you like old type radio comedy/ dramas etc listen to //pumpkinfm.com/ Statistically speaking you have a better chance of getting dead the older you get! Thank god only when you find a religion that passes the truth test!:13554.jpg



Interesting that he knows Cameo

I'm thinking it because you were back peddling. Hence why I made the reference to said reverse peddle locomotion.

This is getting complicated. Has anyone got a circle of paper and some crayons so we can write it down?

I'm unsure about this back peddling. Where do they get the backs from, for a start. And why do they have to peddle them? Why can't there just be, like, an online shop or something? And is it the whole back, complete with vertebrae, discs, musculature etc., or just parts?

Or maybe they meant to say "back-pedalling" a050.gif eusa_think.gif

When my club didn't exist it was still bigger than yours:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_8.jpg



Not sure if I've seen the question asked or answered anywhere yet.

Has there been another club that has been coached by both father and son?
