OK, here I go again with another story from deep inside Roosters territory... Yes, yes, yes... Some of you will tell me to go fark myself, others will resoundingly believe me... You can be the judge of that!
Three weeks ago one of our most key playmaking, playmakerish, playmaker players was summonsed into the Chairman's office... He was in there for an hour, and he was told that he needs to shape up or ship out...
Strips weren't torn off the key player in question... It was a businesslike conversation in which the boss told the player that he needs to step up, or he will not factor in our plans in coming seasons...
Word has reached the ear of many Easts people in high places, that the off-field party culture has gone too far in recent times, and that key "playing group personnel" are not taking their jobs seriously!
Tonight and recent weeks - since the meeting took place in fact - provide a general indication that the key player in question himself is not expecting a long-term career at Bondi Junction.
Which is a shame but that's life. He has been given more than half a chance over the years... At least we got one premiership out of him but the chances of getting two are much akin to Kerry Packer selling Channel 9 to Alan Bond TWICE!
