GRAND FINAL WEEK

Tinkler, towns biggest diasppointment to watch premiership from cage, where he belongs

Grand Final Week

BLACK GOLD: Fark it’s going to take a sec to sum up this bloke: Current bowling ball headed, former billionaire mining mogul, ICAC star, Singapore slinging fugitive, now annulled bankrupt, and one-time owner of the Knights was captured by a vigilante group overnight, known only as the Tinkler Trappers.

Not much more is known at this stage other than that they seek a bounty of 17 grand final tickets directed to the original premiership squad.

Newy’s most famous flog could use a random act of kindness, even without the incentive of being freed from a steel cage.

We understand crisis negotiators are in contact with the Tinkler Trappers in an effort to persuade them to fleece Tinky boy for as many tickets as possible.

It’s probably the least he could do.

Seriously mate how do you cock it up when you’ve got a billion in 2011? #newcastle #newcastleknights #newy #defendthekingdom #nrlgrandfinal
