Gus signed him to a FG contract, before he’d played a NSW cup game?
Great call.
Unbelievable hey? I was shocked by that. So Gus or someone scouted him and we offered him an NRL deal before he even played NSW Cup. Already thought he came outta nowhere, but the reality is even moreso.

Also sucks for Manly. He was right under their noses at Belrose and they didn’t even notice.

P.s: Who is our current scout? Was it Peter (somebody) the former Manly coach? Not Mulholland who was at one point. I know a former Manly coach was hired in some capacity but not sure if talent identification.

How come no one has mentioned Presto talking about the big sign Matthew Attard made for him? Isn’t he a key figure in kennel history?

I had a nice chat with Jacob Preston at Chargrill Charlie’s in Mona Vale earlier this week.

Such a great guy, humble and hardworking. We’re lucky to have him.

The way he pronounced it made me chuckle
