The weekend before last I took Dawson to a Member's morning at Centrebet Stadium; all the players were there as well as pass the ball and jumping castles. Daws got his jersey signed by Jamie Soward (who remembered him from St George) and got some signatures in his notebook and on Brownie's Panthers shirt and shorts. Nigel Plum said Dawson gets talked about a lot in his house (typical, that's what all the preschool parents say to me!) and Daws was very impressed when David Simmons said hello to him (remembered his name from footy, his son is in Daws' team) and then looked up from signing his book and said to everyone "He's a champion little player this one! See you at training on Friday Daws!"

There hasn't been much NRL on for us lately with byes and away games; even this weekend Panthers are in NZ and the St George game is on Monday night.
Last weekend Daws' team played Blacktown City and won again; they've won all but two games which the lost one and drew one. Daws is doing great at kicking, great aim, just needs to kick the ball a little bit higher but most of the kids can't even get it near the goal posts! Daws got man of the match this week, the poor trophy is in serious need of replacement, one of his legs is broken off and one is sticky taped back to the base!
