[quote="Spookisback"]I take a [i]bit [/i]of an issue with this view... we are being told (by those in the know) that we should be creating personalities in our sport... here we are announcing a contract extension for the world record holder for points in a rugby league season... what's the alternative?
we are really excited but we are worried that we might be accused of being too excited by someone, and told we are being silly and exaggerating??
(besides, he only got the record against taxi drivers and kebab shop owners??)
I'm happy with HUGE... also fits modern language patterns... And it got space on a national sports news channel live!![/quote]
Just my opinion- I'm not blasting the club for it I just feel that word was the wrong adjective - it infers something more than a contract extension - albeit , of one helluva player and Max has no bigger fan than me.
I praised him when the club were messing him about when others players would have walked!
A far better word to use would have been 'exciting' the word 'huge' got me thinking of something massively affecting the club longterm!
