  • I'm Stoked..........Thank You RWB

    Yes, a package just arrived for me, an early birthday present
    Probably the best birthday present I've ever got.
    A signed Roosters jersey, thoughtfully packed with a keyring and a lovely card
    I'm not sure I deserve it but I'm very grateful.
    There's a framing place in town, so I'm gonna frame it and hang it in pride of place in my poolroom.
    It's gonna take awhile for me to identify the signatures on it, but I'll endeavour to do so.
    Thank you so much RWB.
    I'm very happy today.

    Hi Eddie,

    This makes me very happy as well and I'm glad it arrived overnight. I think that one was from the 2010 grand final team (the year should be stitched on the jersey somewhere) and so the signatures were from the likes of Todd Carney, Braith, Jake, Mini etc. It was numbered in a series so that should be on there too.

    I'm glad you liked the card too and it's from an Australian artist based in South Australia who loves to paint roosters.

    I hope you enjoy looking at it in good health and cheers to another year of happiness, peace and wellbeing.

            What date is your birthday ism22? I'll put it in my steel trap mind vault...

            I hope your trip is going well also.

            I was happy to send the jersey to Eddie as I've had it for long enough and it's great to have the Roosters represented in a Qld household where I know it's appreciated.

            What is awesome is the camaraderie and respect some of us have for one another on here. That comes down to the individuals behind the keyboard.

              The trip's going well (always too fast though). I could happily retire in small-town Japan if that's what ends up happening.

              Agreed there's something special about this forum, particularly in a Web 2.0 world where social media has become the norm. It feels like everybody has a place here.

                  That's very close! I don't have any Dannemanns lying around here so I'll drink to your good health and happiness then with some Italian coffee I just got delivered.

                  Hope for a win for the Roosters also over Nth Queensland the next day too for you...

                  I'm pleased the trip is going well for you and that you are enjoying it also.

                  Yes most people on here are good value and good company too and it's great we can chat like we do on all different subjects, even though its our love of the Roosters that brought us here in the first place.

                    Thanks, I think that's a fitting ceremony... I hope it's a good Italian coffee

                      I had a cup in the afternoon and it revived me enough to stay awake past 9pm so I could watch the game.

                        Last night I sat at the dining room table with a glass of bourbon and the jersey in an attempt to figure out some of these signatures.
                        I have identified SKD and JWH in the top left corner.
                        I also found Leilua, Carney and Friend.
                        Some of them are real difficult.
                        Gotta say its pretty unreal that JWH is still playing after all these years. Not bad for a prop.

                          Hi Eddie,

                          Some of them are very hard to read aren't they? Mini should be in there somewhere and also Braith. Yes, JWH is still pretty fit and powerful on the field. I met him once at Waverley Bowling club and he is such a lovely person.

                          Glad you are enjoying the jersey and I'm glad it's with someone who appreciates it.

                            From memory, Mini has a funny sig. I think it might be the one in the middle at the bottom that looks like it has figure eights in it.................but I'm not sure
