Quote: ratticusfinch "Yeah but Phil Veivers is on the board and he no doubt made sure McGuire was slapped with a 19 game ban, placed in shackles and returned to Australia in order to stop our 8 game winning streak and sure the 5 peat remains on track. Clearly still not forgiven Dessie for knocking him out with his trademark headbutt in the cup in 1989 (or thereabouts). Massive conspiracy.'"
It was 1988. We put you out the cup with a last minute John Fieldhouse try but you did win the 'we butted a Saints player' trophy that day so clearly all wasn't lost.
