Bit of an all in brawl including spectators at fulltime in the final between Wests and Penrith
Could be an interesting match when they meet in the SS

Could be an interesting match if they meet this week in the Kiama 7's...

Same Wazza, looking forward to watching some entertaining footy. Go the Two Blues!

No unfortunately - got a good report from the eldest son on the day. He really enjoyed playing Manly. He said that Maille was the best on the day and the speed of Alex Northam blew most people away

Is the Keg of McLaren Vale Ale on at the Season Launch?

Surprisingly when I contacted the chaps at McLaren Vale to collect there was no response....................

very disappointed.

Hope I'm not being too forward, but on March 14 we are hosting a season launch luncheon at Merrylands RSL Club. Guest speakers are Alan Jones and Nick Farr Jones.

See attached for details. Hope Gaggerlanders can make it.

I've booked my tickets, should be a great day.

Peter Thompson recently interviewed legendary Two Blues coach Paul Dalton who guided Parramatta to back to back Grand Final victories in 1985 and 86. The first episode is now available on the Two Blues website.

 

[Wazza2013]

Trial game dates are on the Two Blues web site.

Reminded Mrs Wazza that club rugby season is approaching and I will be unavailable on Saturdays as watching Parra until 16th August(Thinking Positive)

I was told I am not to neglect her during the rugby season.

I promised to take her out to for lunch and to see something enjoyable

A Two Blues Burger while watching 1st grade..... I might be up for husband of the year

Bring on season 2014

You're a shoo-in Wazza, you're raising the bar for the rest of us ; I don't buy She Who Must Be Obeyed a Two Blues Burger every game. If you're coming to the Sportsmans Lunch on March 14 I'd appreciate it if you don't mention this to my better half.

Season 2014 can't start early enough for me. I'm primed.

Pretty sure that @wazza was only suggesting that Mrs Wazza2013 would get one Two Blues Burger for the season, not every home game.

The bar may have been lifted but not to Olympic Games Podium status.

The second episode of Thommo's interview with Paul Dalton is now available on the Two Blues website.

Peter Thompson and Paul Dalton discuss Paul's views on the best Parramatta players during Paul's coaching tenure, including the mercurial Brad Selby, Andrew Leeds, Gregg "Tiny" Melrose, Neil Catt, Mick Carter, Lance "Butch' Walker and Two Blues characters such as Denis "Muncher" Garlick. Paul also discusses his time as coach of the NSW Waratahs and gives us an insight into the controversy surrounding the replacement of then captain Simon Poidevin with the up and coming Nick Farr Jones. Now retired, Paul trains and breeds greyhounds with success.

In the spirit of @Wazza2013 splashing out on Two Blues burgers, I have purchased She Who Must Be Obeyed a season membership for the Mighty Two Blues. Entry to all home games and a supporters scarf for only $60. And voting rights of course. A bargain. I'll tell her it's worth $150 (9 home games @ $15 plus a scarf).

Heard they had 240 people turn up to training last night. capacity.

Wow, what a great day at Merrylands RSL Club, and what a great venue!

Alan Jones is a great speaker (Alan was working without notes - I did not hear him say umm or aah once in a wide ranging talk that must have gone close to 40 minutes; I saw him talk to some of our Women players and not just talk to them, but converse with them. I may have to re-evaluate my personal opinion of Alan!).

Nick Farr Jones spoke well and with some brutal honesty addressed one of our failings, and of course Parramatta's favourite son, Two Blue Legend and Wallaby Eric Tweedale, the oldest living Wallaby, charmed everyone with his reminiscences. (I don't know if you have had the chance to hear Eric speak but if you are offered the chance, take it, you won't regret it!)

All speakers had pertinent points for all Two Blues to digest (some of which may have been less than easy to digest for some of us present). I for one was very appreciative of their honesty. We are a club on the way back, not a club that is already there. We can learn from those who who been in tough times before.
