CREDIT WHERE IT’S OVERDUE

I LOVED an email we received from a reader during the week calling on the NRL to issue all 2017 Cronulla Sharks members a medal.

“Anyone who supports a team for 50 years without a premiership deserves one,” wrote Grant West from the Shire.

WE’VE ALL BEEN THERE

THE media can be a tough business — one in which we’re all guilty of making mistakes. Check out the scoreline in Channel Nine’s Easter Monday news bulletin. They had the wrong team winning the Tigers-Eels blockbuster at ANZ Stadium.

Hard to knock back that kind of offer, especially as he is in and out of the first grade team.

His jump for the ball in Dugan's last try was horrendous.

Meanwhile, the Roosters announced the retention of vice-captain Jake Friend on Monday along with the mid-season signings of Scott Dureau (Catalans Dragons) and Nathan Stapleton (Cronulla) before the June 30 deadline.
Friend will remain with the Roosters until the end of 2018.
"Jake works tirelessly on the important role he plays within the team and continues to improve on and off the field," Roosters coach Trent Robinson said.
"A big part of the future of our club, Jake leads by example and is someone not only I but everyone at the club values. I’m really looking forward to watching him continue to grow in the coming seasons."
Dureau has joined as halves cover for Daniel Mortimer, who completed a recent switch to the Gold Coast, while Stapleton will provide depth in the outside backs after Tatau Moga's move to the Cowboys.

Stapo may actually do quite well here with the personnel he will be playing with in the backline but probably only if a player is injured. Can't see him replacing Tupou, Tuvaisa-Sheck, Kenny-Dowell, Jennings, etc...though on form alone
