Peter Sterling should be the next NRL Immortal… his contribution to the game cannot be underestimated… ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

@__gk___ 5 месяцев назад

I’ve missed Sterlo and for what he has done on and off the field he’s an immortal for mine.

@jaycee571 5 месяцев назад

Such an asset to rugby league and a great story teller to boot. I love Sterlo, he would have been an amazing coach.

@forddriver8827 5 месяцев назад

Nothing like an immortal and will not be nominated

@@forddriver8827 dribbler….What he’s done on and off the field in Rugby League speaks for itself! Four premierships, part of the ‘82 Invincibles and ‘86 Unbeatables and 30 years of commentary. He’s given most of his life to Rugby League. What have you done for Rugby League?

@michaelkeating9794 5 месяцев назад

Another great one. I was a touch too young for the 82 tour but was so excited for the 86 one. Can remember constantly flicking through my Open Rugby to read about the players I hadn't heard of. I was fortunate enough to get Sterlo's autograph at the Saints game (along with Craig Johnston who'd come along to watch him and the Kangaroos). Some great memories shared and I distinctly remember that Third Test because I was stood behind the sticks at Central Park when The King went in for the game sealing try, with a great piece of rugby. I shouted "You bald twat" as he went over and when the other Kangaroos came around to hug him he gave the crowd the V as his arm went around for the hug. What a guy.

@wilkie1011 5 месяцев назад

Great episode as always. Sterlo should be an Immortal.

@tigerwarsaw99 4 месяца назад

He and Kenny were better than some of those named already.

@codyb3232 4 месяца назад

Man, it was great to hear Sterlos voice again. Miss him on the Sunday Footy Show and Ch9 coverage.

@leehughes2666 5 месяцев назад

A harder, tougher, and dare i say one of the dirtiest props ever to play the game, and listening to him here he seems one of the nicest blokes ever! Blocker roach. Great to hear these stories.

@tigerwarsaw99 4 месяца назад

His initiation to first garde was Craig Young eye gouging him. They didnt muck around in those days. Blocker very underrated for his skill level. Great ball skills for a big man, in the Beetson mould.

@RidetheGeoffening 4 месяца назад

I'd never label block dirty. And I don't think anyone of the time would. I'm a manly guy so we had Boyd who was soooo fuckin awesome , but unfortunately dirty. Dirty is a very harsh label for league players . Especially retrospectively from the mid to late 80 s backwards. Block was just tough and as the other fella said , incredibly skillful. Each to their own of course , but I don't think many would agree that block was dirty

@tigerwarsaw99 4 месяца назад

@@RidetheGeoffening dirty player was eye gouging, elbows, tripping, king hit. None of those were Blocker. Yes he could get in a stink or two but not a dirty player for mine.

@jaycee571 5 месяцев назад

Take a bow Jimmy, these poddys are getting better and better, you have come along way. Asking open questions, letting the guests talk and giving them a platform to open up. You are interjecting at the right time and not too much or too little. Hats off to ya mate , really polished product with two of the greatest blokes and rugby league players. Keep kicking goals mate, this is bloody as good as it gets.

@bonzapelican 4 месяца назад

Exactly. Lets the guests entertain, not unlike Parky!

@allansillis5034 5 месяцев назад

Thank you so much for this episode James. I absolutely love Sterlo and getting to hear him tell those stories was awesome.

@bartcolen 5 месяцев назад

Jimmy, you definitely delivered on what you said about this one: cracking episode! Many of the interviews have been quite interesting, but, out of all of the Bye Round shows so far, this one was the most fun by a mile. What great guys.

@Schiltzenberger 5 месяцев назад

If I had to choose between Brett Kenny or Mal Meninga, I'd Pick Kenny too, everyday of the week. Absolute travesty that Kenny and Sterlo aren't Immortals yet.

@briankennedy1192 4 месяца назад

Just watched a replay of the 82 Gf, Kenny sets up 3 and scores 2 of parras 5 tries. Scored 2 in 3 straight Gf but had 2 disallowed in 84 Gf against the dog's, which parra lost..

@grahambrown9530 5 месяцев назад

Sterling was an incredible half.criminal he isn't an Immortal.

@RidetheGeoffening 4 месяца назад

Why not

@RidetheGeoffening 4 месяца назад

It's fine to say of course, but back it up

@richardgardner9104 5 месяцев назад

Could of watched this for days with the stories and love for the game, great episode.

@JRPete 5 месяцев назад

both Stelo and Blocker are giving a glimpse of why we should put respect back to test footy. Keep up the good work Jammer, hopefully you could bring in Trent Robinson to talk more about Franch rugby league.

@Tricky181 5 месяцев назад

Jammer that was the best ever podcast!!!and I’m 36 year old !

@AWESTERNWHITEMAN.BOSH. 5 месяцев назад

Both great guys. But one of my greatest memories. Was seeing sterlo. Running out in a Hull fc shirt. COYH.

@briankennedy1192 5 месяцев назад

That final against Wigan was the greatest.

@raystephens1142 5 месяцев назад

Cracking episode. The family had one of those chats “what would you do if we won £150m on the Lottery?” Wife: I’d buy an island Son: I’d set up a gaming company Me: I’d fund a proper GB tour to Australia. Great to hear Sterlo and Blocker reference the origins of RL and how it came about with The George in Huddersfield etc. Is this well known in Australia? Do people know the struggle we have to keep it relevant in the UK? We need these tours again but I accept there’s progress.

@robertwallace7968 5 месяцев назад

Great episode with two great players,would love to see GB v Aus ashes test series again,remember as a kid going to see the Aussies play Oldham they gave em a good game.

@samuellemoyne4791 4 месяца назад

3 legends! Cheers boys

@robcousins231 4 месяца назад

Great spisode. Fair play to Jimmy; he is really trying to get test rugby back into focus. What is a shame is that the market is clearly there for it. if Great Britain was revived and the Aussies toured there, the interest in it would be massive. The TV numbers, fan interest and, therefore, media coverage would be huge. But I agree with Sterlo; it just won't happen the way the seasons are set up now.

@johnbroomfield2172 4 месяца назад

@matthewdawson2787 5 месяцев назад

Great great episode from the Bye Round. It should never be forgotten how great these two players were. Time may have torn them from the field, but shows like this continue to keep the memory flame burning. Mr Graham, I know, you too must feel the pang of no longer playing a sport you were so dominant in, but your contribution to this new forum of content (and those of your partners and staff) should not go over looked. It is important to never forget the stories of those who came before. All the best.

@ryan-jonnoble6793 4 месяца назад

Love Sterlos passion / appreciation for the North of England. Same as his solo podcast with you Jammer and also one he did with JBB and Alex on the old Rugby AM here in England. Sydney born to a Scouse mother & Geordie father, lived in UK for 17 years, Liverpool for the last 4 + years. Love the place. Look forward to the podcasts every week. This was a cracker 👌🏼👌🏼

@keithrankin3945 5 месяцев назад

I just seen Sterlos name so I have to watch it. He is sorely missed on the footy panel I really miss his breakdowns

@gdl9902 4 месяца назад

Re 49min mark; Old Trafford in 1986; Ryan Giggs the ballboy would have been Ryan Wilson at the time. His father was Danny Wilson who was an ex Welsh RU player who was a local legend at rugby league side Swinton Lions. I was there that day and ended up as a drowned rat! Bloody awful wet day!
