Arrived in London last night for todays game and the atmosphere in the bar with all the fans reminds me why our game is the best on the planet good luck to Kr and the Leopards.

Sounds a great time. And agree best fans. Still a great game, but over officiated and players banned way too easily, which weakens the spectacle. But still a better watch than the round ball …..

I was told this weekend we've spoken to former Gold Coast half Ash Taylor who retired last year. With a view to him coming over, training with us, to see if he can;

Stay fit
Earn a contract with us

Not saying its true. Not saying its happening. Just saying, someone mentioned it to me.

Was the next big thing at one point. Went completely off the boil at the Titans. As I recall the injury that forced him to retire was potentially progressive, so I’d be surprised if he wanted to come back.

Not played for 18 months.
Ongoing hip injury problems.
He'll fit right in.
The medical team will welcome him with open arms.
GH can give him the grand tour of the treatment room....

Add him to McLune and we'd have the most rested halfback pairing in history. Unless Peter Sterling is actually going to play for us next year...

GH is Mc Loon if he thinks signing players who can only do half a season will work.
Maybe he's going the time share route

Hoping for some recruitment action this work, mow the women’s CC is finished. We need positive news not adverts for performance art students in dinosaur suits and Star Wars costumes.

Tbf the OP didn't say we had approached Taylor, it was just what he'd been told.
