The Good Daniel Giveth and The Better Daniel Leaveth

Beefcake!!!!!!!! Daniel is seen exiting a heavy training session of sitting on his arse for 3 hours with 5 minute stints standing outside a diamond. Sounds like the same job that Antonio, my cousin the jeweller has except without the lisp.

Daniel Fairclough has left the building. It came as a shock to the entire team but he's sticking with the Knights and playing baseball in winter. "Isn't that a bit like playing newcomb ball with yourself?" you ask. Of course it is but the decision is not mine and McPhie didn't even try to up the ante with some sweet contract kickers.

I talked to Daniel about his time with the parrots and he sincerely wanted to thank everybody for the years of fun. We'd all like to thank him for bringing Frank which will ultimately be his legacy and how can we not appreciate the gift of Frank. Frank has often bestowed his gift to many women opening with the line "I got you something, here's a package for you", but never has he been gifted to someone else. Just special.

Daniel has listed some memories as follows:

Highlights

-Winning POTY award

-Winning the Golden Boot Award

-Beating Deluca to win the Golden Boot award (It wasn’t a tie pre and post season goals don’t count)

-Making the grand final,

-Playing with a magnificent bunch of Lads

-Car pooling with Mr Cool and Frank.

- Seeing George after the game with his shirt off

Low light

-Loosing the grand final

-Bringing Marc the d-head goal keeper

-Playing with Deluca

It's been unreal.

I just look at the coming season and I think of where we've been and how we've gotten here. I think that this season we have a new team and in one swift move we've lost of 400 kilos from the roster jsut by Fairclough and Werner leaving. Total amazeballs!

Good luck Daniel. We wish you well and hope you'll reach the dizzying heights of some other baseball greats such as the retard from Something About Mary and Boxy. May playing a summer sport in winter bring all the tidings you'd expect. You truly are changing the face of sport. Imagine if Grant Kenny said "I know being an Ironman is a summer vocation but screw it. I'm taking this shit to July! I don't even care what my wife Lisa Curry-Kenny 7 time Commonwealth Games gold medalist says about it." Daniel, you could be what Grant Kenny never was, an Olympic silver medalist and summer-cum-winter sports star!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

P.S. That keeper was a real d-bag. Remember how his abandonment cost Reynolds his only good front tooth? You should probably give him some money for that.....
