Don’t keep us in suspense! What did he say?????
Jokes, I pretended I didnt know who he was.
That’s the thing. Everyone’s a keyboard warrior until they meet in real life. I got made respect for AFB. I wouldn’t hesitate to go up to him and just say - “ UP THE WAHS!!!”
When the wahs played Manly in Perth years ago. I was waiting outside their hotel for the boys to come out & get some photos. Don Mann came out and asked me who I'd like to get photos with. I said whomever is available? He goes wait there bro.
Only Ben Matulino & Konrad came. Spent like 10 mins with me. Manu came down stairs, And looked at me & jokingly said - nah bro. Can't come , I'm to famous. You'll only be catching a cold out there. I said oh well, At least i can catch something unlike you with balls. He said hellll naaah! And belted out that huge laugh of his
then ran back upstairs. He brought Shaun back down. Got my photos with shaun, And pretended like i didn't know who Manu was. He slapped the back of my neck then cracked up laughing. I'm glad he laughed, I was shitting myself Yeah and then he would ignore you and you'd secretly be crying inside.That’s the thing. Everyone’s a keyboard warrior until they meet in real life.

I just let him be - he was just doing his thing & didnt need me bothering him
Nah, seriously I wouldn’t be one of those annoying desperate fans wanting a selfie, nor would I just ignore him like he’s a nobody.
A simple “ hi Addin, I’m a big supporter. Good luck for next year”. Something like that. Don’t need to overkill it or completely ignore him either.

Faark you're a brave man e hoa. Or a madman.
His boys play at the same local club as my younger brother, and the club had a disco one night and he took photos and signed anything the kids handed them
The kicker every. single. kid. who went up to him and asked him if he was Addin Fonua-Blake
"Dear Shaun, I wrote you, but you still ain't callin"

Here is Shaun’s one:
“Dear SJ, I feel like I can call you SJ because you and me are so alike. I'd like to meet you one day, it would be great to have a catch. I know I can't kick as far as you but I think you'd be impressed with my speed. I love your hair, you run fast. I know you have not been getting my letters because I know you would write back if you did. I hope you write back this time, and we can become good friends. I am sure our relationship would be a real touchdown!”

Did he say "Nah, Addin Fonua-Bloke". He is only Fonua-Blake on gameday.
When he is in the kitchen with his wife he is Addin Fonua-Bake... Maybe also when he gets stoned..
The pause before the laugh, Had ne sweating by golly
