The following probably reads really badly, but after the events of the last few days i thought i'd just write a little piece.
Since the night of Sunday the 5th of October 2008 i've wanted only one thing - the 2009 season to start!
- i'm actually stuck for words after that -
Rugby League means more to me than everything in the world with the exception of family and friends. The next 7 or 8 months is honestly my life, my weekends revolve around a) attending manly game b) watching every other game.
I try and read every article throughout the week for every game and get stuck into the forums when i can (apologies to employer)
God knows why i do it  it's just my number 1 passion.
I thought nothing ever would make me re-think this passion, even through Manly's darkest days (on field) it never ever got to the point where it got me down.
With the Stewart event and to a lesser extent the Watmough one - it's a big kick in the guts for me, as if you've just found out that your best mate has been sleeping with your Mrs.
I don't know what i'm exactly saying - i know players don't read these things - but i just wanted to express my extreme dissapointed in Stewart and Watmough. They are not just entertaining people on a Saturday afternoon, they are playing a big part in the lives of people that they may never meet - however sad that may be.
I hope the season kicks off and these issues are quickly resolved, so that we can have a successful 2009. However, it has taken a lot of gloss off the game that i follow very very closely.
- Apologies for that dribble, but i feel slightly better now. ;D
