Quote: WIZEB "Never mind Glasby mate, what did Cam Smith have to say when you and him chewed the cud over a Macca D's?'"
I met Mal Maninga and chatted with him after a
England v Aus match in Melbourne
They were doing a warm down drill the next morning
with Adrian Lam running it.
They were catching funny shaped small objects in a circle.
Hand eye drill.
Anyways Mal said he’d heard of my work as a Youth
Coach and that I was in Aus.
He was surprised I had turned down the offer to run
hull kr Youth- which is true !!!
I chatted to Cam there as well and reminded him of our long chat
In Macca’s where I implored him to sign for FC.
Cam couldn’t remember- true !
I met Craig Bellamy twice and he’s an intense guy.
We sponsored Storm so he came to our work twice in the 4 years as I was HOSTPLUS.
Tim Glasby played SoO simply because he played for Storm
Otherwise a typical workhorse type of player.
He worked with me as a trainee financial adviser.
He said I was a ‘David Brent’ style of manager.
I’ve been to see Storm train a few times and last year
I had 2 meetings about looking to coach at Storm with
The U16s. I went down and watched match at Pakenham.
I decided family time and golf was more important after a
long think.
So there you have it.
