We love you too Russell...
Is it just me or does everyone believe in love above everything else?
Russell Crowe is causing a bit of a stir at the South Sydney Rugby League Side, the Rabbitoh’s..
A couple of years ago Rusty was approached to help pay the players wages at South Sydney…according to one report, he was asked to write a cheque for one hundred thousand dollars to cover wages. Apparently that was when Russell talked to his friend, businessman Peter Holmes a Court, and together they bought the club.
My jury is still out on Rusty, he's not all good, not all bad…. (google 'I was Russell Crowe's Stooge but I love what he’s doing a at Souths..
You might have seen an ad Russell and Peter Holmes a Court put in the paper earlier this season. It basically said rugby league is for Australia and it’s for families and they made a promise that their players would conduct themselves with dignity on and off the field.
Tomorrow night on the ABC a six part series will get underway…it’s called 'South Side Story' and it starts at eight o’clock…
It tracks the take over at Souths and what has happened since, in episode two there is a bit of 'love in', when Rusty pulls player Dean Widders out of the pack, in front of all the players and tells him he loves him…
It’s caused a ibt of a stir – I know some old school rabbitoh’s hard men are horrified, calling it 'bullshit'…
But I love it, I think Rusty and Pete are just trying to build a culture people can admire, much like Wayne Bennett has acheived at the Bronco's.
"The thing that will make the difference is love . . . actually accepting the family environment, the brotherhood. I don't see everything has to be about crash, bash and negativity. We're going to achieve a lot more if you actually have higher ideals."
Good on you Rusty, I love you too. I think.
