Must say I'm really chuffed for the bloke, all the Aussies come over and want to play in the CC final. I think its absolutely superb that Mark and his family will get to fulfill a dream before they leave us.

Been one of the standout players for us this year without a doubt

He went last year just as a fan of the occasion so for it be among the last games he plays in must be a dream

Fair play to Ogre.
He could have coasted this season in the last year of his contract but he's knuckled down, put the hard yards in and been great.

Respect.

Think hes had his best season

been a fantastic player this season,i hope his replacement matches upto him.best of luck at wembley mark.i hope you have a winners medal to take back to austrlia when you and the family go home.you will be missed.good luck in your retirement and enjoy it.

same here, he looks far fitter than he did in previous years...don't think you can get a more committed player, he was fuming with himself for knocking-on early in the game on Sunday.

One of our best imports in the modern era. Has never shirked his workload since arriving and the younger props would do well to try and model their careers on his. Chuffed to bits for him that he can visit the big stage over here before retirement.

Could be a fair few players last chance of silverware what with Lynch, Tickle, O'Meley and even Ellis all either getting on or leaving.

Are we gonna win Seb me old cock sparrow?

Would say out of him & Fitzgibbon O'Meley has definitely been the better signing.

Both very good for us but Fitz had a few more years on the clock than Ogre.

Good point actually I'd forgot Fitz retired after us .

The odds are against it but there is a chance and tbh I think we can do it

CC is a big deal for aussies so really pleased for Ogre that he gets this opportunity before he leaves.

He played like a man possessed on Sunday. Will miss him and his honesty when he leaves.

According to Mark he didnt even know what the CC was before Brett Hodgson won it with Wire

Watched the game last night , O'Meley put a right good shift in and realy took it to the Wire forwards .

I agree, but in Fitzgibbon's defence I don't think we got the best out of him, he was flogged for 80mins every week instead of being spelled, and played in some non-important games where a rest to get him match fit for a big tie would have been better.

That will've been Kath and her Les Clarke attitude: "we're paying the bugger so make him play". In case you're wondering, Les Clarke was a poisoned-dwarf, two-faced little gob[is[/ihite of a director in the Bunting era, whose main role in the club appeared to be as Roy Wardby's footstool
