The new young dynasty of super saints is coming to a ground near you.

| Quote: Barry_McKenzie "Is that Keith Senior?
I want to see players who can wind the crowd up with heaps of arrogant posturing and gestures before scoring the winning try and saying how easy the match was in the post match interview then going out on a good session down the Walkabout, leaving in the early hours with 2 or 3 filthy women and taking them home in a stolen taxi before doing several lines of columbian, rooting the lot of them in a drug fuelled frenzy and filming the whole thing and posting it on youtube.
'"
Sounds like the secret life of James Graham after his first week in OZ. |

Was just going to post this. I remember the Sun having interviews about his hair and tattoos on their website. News Of The World as well  www.newsoftheworld.co.uk/sport/r ... -over.html It's just ridiculous. |

Careful, if your a "character" you won't last long in the GB set up, a set up that needs a few mongrels. Personally I think Lee Briers brightens up the telly, especially when interviewed.

Goldy could so easily be the ideal 'character' for superleague.... but he isn't very good at footy.
Ideally these 'characters' (as well as being larrikin types) I have previously mentioned have also been pretty good at their sports.

Current thoughts - Mago out or get running up them plantations, get fit or get rid.
Maybe a back up halfback, someone with a bit of experience on a short term deal.
Big tall strong running second rower, like a McMeekin or Sironen type back rower.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_20333.gif |

Kevin Sinfield once made some toast and left crumbs in the butter then drove through a set of temporary lights at night whilst they were turning red.

| Quote: Barry_McKenzie "Reading a thread all about the late great Alex 'Hurricane' Higgins over on the SinBin got me thinking.
Have we got any real 'characters' playing Rugby League these days?
Alex Higgins was probably the only bloke that could make a snoreathon 'sport' like snooker (whereby the aim is to hit a few coloured balls down holes on a table using a stick) interesting. Alex would think nothing of smashing all the balls down in record time whilst drinking beer, smoking like a train and relieving himself into one of the plant displays before being seen later staggering out of a nightclub at 3am with a couple of women on each arm.
Legend.
We have recently had people like Julian 'Poo in the shoe' O'Neill and Craig Gower throwing up some mildly amusing off field incidents......and of course Willie Mason and SBW... but thats about it. Even that selection look like boy scouts compared to past players like John 'Dallas' Donnelly' and Tommy Raudonikis.
All we seem to have these days are blokes like Kevin Sinfield... a man so boring he could send a glass eye to sleep.
Yes... I accept the game has become more professional.
But surely there must be some 'characters' left in our game???

For me Lee Briers, after that i really can't think, Barry Mac and Tezza are characters but they are only two bit commentators on Sky
