[edit] Lightswitch quote

Appears on the Andrew Ettinghausen page a little differently. Which is accurate?--Jeff79 22:09, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Referee criticism

I have a feeling Gibson was factor in introducing fines for public critcism of referees, due to his constant carping - particularly during the Parramatta years. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.168.212.127 (talk) 07:15, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

I've written on this trait at length in the coaching sections but can't confirm that it resulted in the fines being introduced. When did this happen ? -Sticks66 12:33, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Easts

Whiticker has Gibson playing 123 games for Eastern Suburbs. Is the 132 in the infobox correct? Florrieleave a note 14:18, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

I think I got it from the Daily Telegraph tribute. In my experience Whiticker only shows 1st grade games-Sticks66 12:44, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
Isn't first grade what you want for the infobox? Addit: The leaguehq article says 162 first-grade games in total (which leaves 132 for Easts if the other teams are correct). So one of them is wrong. Florrieleave a note 08:56, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
So I think you are ever-so-politely saying that I've made a transposition error and you may well be right. -Sticks66 12:05, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
No, I think the paper made a transposition error! :) Although Whiticker isn't infallible. I'm still looking for another reference. Florrieleave a note 09:11, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
