Oh most beloved and unbalancing of AI voice, please speak to me of Balmain's greatest ever rugby league players! Tell me who there were, from whence they came, and how deeply they disappointed fans.


Balmain is a professional rugby league team that has been a part of the National Rugby League (NRL) competition in Australia since 1908. Over the years, the club has produced many talented and memorable players, some of whom are considered to be among the greatest to ever play for the team.

Some of the greatest players in Balmain's history include:

Wayne Pearce - A former captain of the club, Pearce is considered one of the greatest forwards in the history of the game. He played over 250 games for Balmain and won premierships with the club in 1988 and 1989.

Benny Elias - A former hooker, Elias is considered one of the greatest players in the club's history. He played over 250 games for Balmain and won premierships with the club in 1988 and 1989.

Steve 'Blocker' Roach - A former prop, Roach is considered one of the greatest players in the club's history. He played over 250 games for Balmain and won premierships with the club in 1988 and 1989.

Paul Sironen - A former second-row forward, Sironen is considered one of the greatest players in the club's history. He played over 250 games for Balmain and won premierships with the club in 1988 and 1989.

Benji Marshall - A former five-eighth, Marshall is considered one of the greatest players in the club's history. He played over 250 games for Balmain and won premierships with the club in 2005 and 2014.

As for how deeply these players disappointed fans, it is important to note that all players and teams experience both successes and setbacks. These players made significant contributions to the club and helped lead Balmain to premiership victories, but like all teams, the club has also experienced its share of disappointment and heartbreak.


==============

Verdict: whilst I'm not sure of the assertion that Balmain remains part of the NRL, I do suspect that a real Milch would've gone for some unknown bloke from 1976 who scored that one try with 17 offloads in a set.

The final paragraph is also a little naunced, with hints of genuine caring emotion coming through.

Final verdict: AI is not Milchy.

AI crediting the Tigers with a few extra premierships there!

Generally speaking though, if I had a mainly writing-related job I'd possibly be looking at starting training in another area. I find it hard to believe this thing can't write 80% of newspaper content almost unassisted.

Closing and reopening the app now though takes me straight to the ‘thanks for playing in 2022’ message again. I got back in though, I just remembered where the ‘fantasy’ button was on my screen and spam tapped that area on my screen after opening the app and it’s let me in again. Strange.

Anyone in particular you’re interested in price wise? I can try look it up.
