My esteem for Gus rose tonight and for Fatty fell again. Fatty continued his role as mouthpiece for Gallop, trying to make Gallop look good. Very sad to see.
Brett was absolutely brilliant, as was Jaime. Anyone who wasn't deeply moved to really feel for Brett's pain over the false allegations has no heart, no soul - and should be checked for the existence of a pulse.Â
And Brett's words about Des should not be missed. Des is the rock. His unwavering support for Brett when it seemed the rest of the world was clamoring for blood will not be forgotten. And when he went into bat for Brett, refusing to stand him down in the face of extreme pressure from Gallop the Gutless Goose and the NRL hierarchy, saying Brett had done nothing wrong, he made the 100% right decision. He made the tough call. That's what being loyal is all about.
