Yikes, you ok mate?He’s a fuckwit of the highest order and I don’t care how good he was he can get fucked. The ultimate traitor.
Out the grubs we have had at the club he takes the cake.Yikes, you ok mate?
Who else is on your “list”? LolOut the grubs we have had at the club he takes the cake.
I think I have McCracken so high because the was the first player to really screw over the club and I was old enough to realise what was going on. Unfortunately he’s been joined by plenty of others. I’m glad he missed out on being on the field in 95 and that win that semi in 98 was mad all the more sweeter because he was on the field. At least Pay, J Smith and Dymock gave their all for the club in 95 McCracken threw in the towel and refused to play.Who else is on your “list”? Lol
Could be a whole thread on its own...
I remember this also mate, I was peeved at him for sure because he sat out and the other 3 didn’t, but they pissed me off also. I guess where I differ is I look back at what he did in some of those games and look at it through a Bulldogs lens so I’m quite apathetic toward him.I think I have McCracken so high because the was the first player to really screw over the club and I was old enough to realise what was going on.

Don’t worry SBW is right up on the list too. The 4 that went to Parra, SBW, Mason, Barba and Klemmer are a big reason why I don’t have a much of an attachment to any of our players these days.I remember this also mate, I was peeved at him for sure because he sat out and the other 3 didn’t, but they pissed me off also.

How does jumping on a plane in the dead of night and leaving your teammates behind to fight for the wooden spoon sit with you
in comparison?
And Haumono sneaking away for the pleasure machine (which was bs, he just wanted out of his contract).Don’t worry SBW is right up on the list too. The 4 that went to Parra, SBW, Mason, Barba and Klemmer are a big reason why I don’t have a much of an attachment to any of our players these days.

What is it with players running out on us?
Smackin McCracken was a champion center for us. Wasn’t his fault it was the Super League greed, if the dogs stayed with the ARL McCracken would have with the Dogs too. One of my all time fav centers we ever had. Man he hurt fuckers in D and attack.Don’t worry SBW is right up on the list too.

he was good in his day because he was one of only a few in any backline that could put a big shot on someone.
Surprised not many people think this.He’s a fuckwit of the highest order and I don’t care how good he was he can get fucked. The ultimate traitor.
Super league saved us as a stand alone club. The ARL had plans to merge us with western suburbs that's why Bullfrog signed us up straight away and McCracken and the other traitors signed as well, until they realised they could get more signing with the ARL. McCracken was quoted as saying he wanted to be paid the same as Steve Renouf because he was as good as him. It wasn't about super league it was about individuals wanting better deals.Smackin McCracken was a champion center for us.

Which was why I loved when the 12th Man took the piss out of him as ‘Phul McCrackin’ - not just an accent gag...He’s a fuckwit of the highest order and I don’t care how good he was he can get fucked. The ultimate traitor.
