Thanks for sharing King.

Excellent way to start the season. Jake & Boyd are 2 of the toughest players to pull on our jersey. I'm very grateful to have witnessed their stellar careers with us.

God bless Artie for discovering Jake. Quite fitting we play the Dolphins first round.

Good to see you back here RWB. How was your off season? Do you think our man JS will take the player option in his favour and re-sign for 2024?

Thanks so much Superman. . My offseason was good thank you and I hope yours was too. Our young man JS has grown a foot taller since last year! I was amazed in how much he's changed and for the better. My instincts are telling me that he will re-sign with us as his family can see the stability he can have here at Easts. Buying property at Double Bay for instance at such a young age. Good mature head on his shoulders.

Cheers to 2023!

Legends. Easy decision.

The 10's will be remembered as arguably the greatest era in the history of our club and these 2 will be front and centre of those memories and discussions.

Sometimes while living in the moment you don't realise how good you have it. Hopefully the golden era of the 10's will be compared to a new 20s golden era.... our window is always open!

Free drinks at Arties Bar up at the club for life surely .
Very well deserved for two warriors who were the backbone of a golden era for the club.

They didn’t need life membership for this.

Invitations to functions and games, special club events and what not I suppose - be no monetary payment

Being a life member myself of Campbelltown Ghosts(Now Macarthur Orioles) (NSW Major League-Spring/Summer ) and Dapto Chiefs (Illawarra/South Coast Autumn/Winter Major League) Baseball Clubs- you get invites to functions every so often and your name on a plaque with other life members - we also received a life members badge.

When we would go back after home games to the Dapto Leagues Club we would often see Alan Fitzgibbon ( Craig's dad) who was a general manager at the club and Kevin Hastings when he was captain coach/coach of the Dapto Canaries in the Illawarra Rugby League Comp.
