Riccuito's called a press conference for later today....

Postby Dogwatcher » Mon Apr 02, 2007 11:09 am

What could this be all about????

As a football fan, I hope it's ot retirement.
And, I also hope it's ALL about football.

But a press conference never looks good when a player's been plagued by injury of late.

Or is it a false alarm.....? A press conference to announce he will "be back soonish".What a crock,might hold a press conference the next time I need to drop some lager out.

Maybe to squash the rumours of him retiring also? They were getting pretty strong...

Well actually as I said earlier I would've been disappointed had he retired.
I support Collingwood, but appreciate Riccuito as a footballer. Plus - as he's from the Riverland, I've a close interest in his career, as do many other people who live here.

It's unusual to hold a press conference to say "I'm playing on". It's good that he is.
