I accept your point, history proves that.



Calderwood made his own mistake. I honestly believe that he would have been the best winger this club ever had, had he stayed. But he didn't and both lost out on that because of it. Although as you said the club didn't lose anything as far as trophy's are concerned.

One of my favourit trys ever!

The main stylistic difference between Donald and Calderwood: professionalism.

Agreed.

Almost as bad as yours on Matt Diskin !

I think G's preferences lie elsewhere, possibly 6' 4" 18 stone.



Old school, treat 'em mean, keep 'em keen.







Perhaps you'd have had a better chance if you had been sat in the Ken Arthurson stand at the Brookvale Oval watching a Manly reserve grade game.

I wonder how he feels about the hair cut?! The flowing locks of curly dark hair might've been more up his street.

Well I have seen him in his tights and I did tease him, though I didn't pull his hair.



As for Donald, picking up on something BB said, I've been told by a high ranking official that he was one of the most professional, hard working and dedicated players at the club. That, excellent displays on game day, and memorable contributions to championships are not enough to endear him to some of our fan base it seems. Says more about them than he IMO.

I was once told by the Leeds CEO of the day that Trevor Clark was a fine individually, you couldn't wish for more, he was a model professional.



I offered an opinion on his qualities (as I saw them) on the rugby field. The following year he was at Bradford.



Not that I'm claiming in any way whatsoever that the two things are connected (I'm sure they are not), just recalling a moment from the past.

Players discarded by Leeds and picked up by Northern during the 1980s might not be the best example you could have given TVOC.

Perhaps but it's all I had.
