Easy, Easy, Easy

We'll be moaning when Sao gets sent off for dropping a people's elbow on someone

Or Half Nelson, Madeley Street days

Does anyone else remember when Lauaki almost did a piledriver on Peter Fox in a derby at the KC?

He did eventually put him down gently

Judging from the clips that keep getting put on it seems Cartwright is drilling into them the important of communication.

I'm just pleased to be seeing him actually on the training field. from the gist of things last year, Grix was doing the sessions with Smith tucked away in an office somewhere

Is Hardaker in training yet? I can't remember seeing him in any photos or videos yet.

I'm guessing Hardaker and Holmes will be next week

These days there are quite a few players who like to have their own personal number, irrespective of the squad situation. Maybe Lewis Martin, for instance, quite likes being squad number 22 for personal or superstitious reasons, who knows these days.

I think the days when 1-13 has any relevance are now long gone.
Personally, they can run around with letters or drawings on their backs if it means we once more start winning games on a regular basis!! I'm more interested in how they perform rather than what number they are wearing.

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.

Ligi Sao looks heavy in the hips and yep
He was last in the running drills.

Thankfully JC has 3-4 months with him

"Ask him ref"

You should arrange to meet Jake on your next UK visitation?
He will take you down to his golf club and you'll be able to add him to your already impressive, burgeoning, [i'I've met the stars'[/i line-up.
