Terry breaks down

WILL anything ever go right for Terry Wallace? Fresh from his team going down to its second defeat in two weeks, the Richmond coach had some car tyre problems on his trek into work yesterday and then, discovering he had no nut wheel to fix it, ended up being stranded for two hours before someone could come to his rescue.

Tomorrow Terry heads down the shops to buy some milk and bread and doesn't have the exact change  :whistle. Have they got someone following him 24 hours 7 days a week ???.

thanks mt.

I thought having a 'nut wheel' was part of a roadworthy, if Plough had've been booked for an unroadworthy car, that might have been a story.

A few feral Tiger fans might wish Terry to be towed away if we lose this week lol.
