Its OK> I had already contacted Marto.
This is what they tweeted today...
"Surely @NathanSharpe5 deserves a grandstand named after him now!! (Sign the petition: http://t.co/Uk6tUYdy) #standupforsharpie"
Proudly Western Australian; Proudly supporting Western Australian rugby
Had the following reply from Chris Garry at the Courier Mail:
"will do my best [to promote it]. Will be a nice piece for our sunday sport gossip column!"
Hope we get some signatures out of it (especially seeing as Sharpie is a Queenslander and all)

Tell everyone not just to "Like" the idea but to bloody well sign the petition!!!
Chuck Norris has the greatest Poker-Face of all time. He won the 1983 World Series of Poker, despite holding only a Joker, a Get out of Jail Free Monopoly card, a 2 of clubs, 7 of spades and a green #4 card from the game Uno.
I received the following response from the ARU this morning
Hi Steve,
Many thanks for your email. I have spoken to the Western Force and both of us will promote this on Facebook and Twitter. We will promote via the Super Rugby Facebook and Twitter account sometime today.
Thanks and I really hope the petition is successful! I’ve signed it myself.
Cheers

I emailed the guys at Kooga and they said they have put it on their Twitter page yesterday but cant put it on facebook. Not sure why but still good that they tweeted it.
