The 2027 contract extension that was floated, it’s not offical is it?
As you always say, Scooper, the club never gets it wrong.
I'm okay with the coach persecuting Samson. He needs to learn that life is not fair, especially for big guys, especially in the Australian Fixed League.
"But Coach, Lil Dicky Naicos gets to run around evading contact, notching up 1-2s, using his neat skills. I got neat skills, why do I gotta stand under the high ball?"
"Because you can. And so you must. Because someone has to, but few can. You can. You must. Stand tall, hands eight feet above the turf. Don't crumple. Knee in the ribs? It happens. Stand there again. Knee in the kidney, in the back of the head? Stand tall?"
"I did! Didn't you see me?!"
"I saw you do it three times."
"How many times do I have to do it?"
Every time."
[One week later]
"Hey Coach, did you see me?! Standing tall?"
"How many times?"
"Like, six?"
""You had 10 opportunities to do it."
"... "
"Do it 10 times."
"Life's not fair. Lil Dicky Naicos-"
"Lil Dicky Naicos will win Brownlows and media adulation and All Supercoach Points jackets. And will always be looking over his shoulder wondering if his 5'2 soapie starlet girlfriend is off *smile*.ing some big stud like you. You don't get to run around untouched racking up 35 a week. You get to stand in the hole and *smile* Lil Dicky's girlfriend. Life's not fair. Take the hit. Take the mark. You'll get the frees once the dumps see you doing it everytime. Once they see you don't crumple without cause. And you'll get Lil Dicky's girl. Or you could be the big man you can be and marry a 6ft model. Leave the short soapie starlets to the midgets."
