Coaching insider:
At today's weekly press conference, Coach Tim Sheens has expressed frustration and surprise at all the questions about Dave Furner coming out of retirement to play 7.
'I don't know what this kid has to do, in order to get you guys off his back?! It's as if you've never seen a 52 year older loose head forward play scrum half before.'
Meanwhile on today's 360% Footy Gus Gould has come out in defence of Dave Furner saying 'he'll do it on his ear, while having his lunch break'.
Gould later qualified that statement, saying Furner may need to wait 6-8 years until the combinations click - by which time Furner will be 60 and eligible for seniors salary cap compensation

The planned protest this weekend, where Wests Tigers fans agreed not to attend this week's match against The Bye has been cancelled after the organiser received a free pie and coke from the Wests Tigers tuckshop.
It's understood that no fans of The Bye will be attending this week's game, however this is not due to protest, more due to there being no venue and no game.

- This is the best thread I've seen in years.
Ha ha! Thanks Logan and Crowsnest.
Thought we needed a bit of a laugh.
If we weren't so invested in this club - the things that happen in and around this club would be perfect for an Office style comedy documentary.
Could see Pascoe being played by Ricky Gervais 🤣
