Why it took time for Friend to click with new recruit Cronk

How about turning down Thurston? That was a good one.

Massive blunder mate,given Sticky’s competivness and passion that error would haunt him forever!

Whats his coffee like? The whole latte culture is great! People bag it but what do others have?
- QLDers have a culture of getting maggot on rubbish beer.
- Melbourne has cafes but they are all in stupid laneways where everybody smokes all over you.
- Cronulla has a bogan/white pride culture.
- Souffs have a Star Wars culture that involves phone chucker using the club as his outlet for lame speeches.
- Bullflogs have a thug culture.
- Tigpies have a culture of drinking quiet beers under the old goalposts at Liechardt (thats actually pretty cool - what a sick lebbo).
- Pemriff have a wife beating and teenage pregnancies culture.
- Parra have a losing culture.
- Newcastle have a pill popping and group sex culture.
- Canberra have a 1980s nostalgic and a jobs for the boys culture.

So we enjoy drinking a farking latte in a nice warm cafe overlooking the beach occasionally? Much better than drinking XXXX on a crocodile-infested beach in the morning while waiting for JT to finish off with your sister.

Lol.

Jake's going well. His return to form means we might be able to cover for Keary's absence a bit better. He can kick and if he can ask questions up the middle of the ruck, it gives the outside backs more space.

Lucky Robbo didn't listen to all the chookpen experts who wanted Friend dropped

It was justified at the time.

He is the captain and it's his job to play well. Anything less will warrant further criticism.
