Great to see Roger in robins nest today, great effort considering he is a bit crook of late. Singed for us for todays equivelent of £160,000 at 16!! Funny to hear how he got £5 for a loss, and had to pay tax on that!! Think we should build a statue of him at the reception of the new stand. Took the Aussies to pieces with 3 tries in his pomp, played 70 mis with a broken jaw, what a true Legend! Didnt ever see him in the flesh, but my dad has told me about nearly every game he played in, so I feel as though I have! |

Totally agree about the statue, dragged our club into the modern era and turned into arguably the best side in the World at the time. |

Heres an idea that someone may want to pass on to the club (im to lazy and cant be bothered) Instead of a statue - which certainly arnt in the plans with the new build, each tower as got a big poster design on it; maybe one on these could be a big one of the dodger in his heydays and just red tint the black and white rustic pic. Would tie in nicely then and would look very good. |
