Big Dell makes his comeback to the NRL after 7 years tomorrow against the Broncos. Seeing as Fox isn't showing it and seeing as Mrs shasta wants to go to Perth tomorrow. Does anyone know if JB's shows the Mungos live on Friday arvo?

Looks like Big Dell's comeback is on hold again, but on the plus side the Dragons have now won 4 on the trot

WENDELL Sailor's much-hyped return to the NRL didn't go according to plan, after the St george Illwarra winger suffered a fractured cheekbone in the clash against Brisbane.

Broncos coach Wayne Bennett, who worked with Sailor before his defection to rugby union in 2002, claimed there may have been a positive to his former protege's injury woes.

“Will it stop him from talking about himself, is it that serious?” Bennett said.

“He'll be back, bigger and larger than life. He'd be talking himself up into the third Origin if he'd have played the full night.”

Sounds like Bennett loves the Dell

You can count on it judging on these comments a couple of days ago.

"I'm just pleased to see him back playing football,'' the Bennett said. "More than pleased.''

Sailor is a personal favourite of Bennett's and as the Dragons prepare to play Brisbane at WIN Stadium tonight, the coach revealed the Saints have acquired something, in Sailor, that is very rare.

"He just transforms people,'' Bennett said. "He galvanises them. He brings something very unique.''

Bennett has no idea how many years Sailor, 33, will have under him at the Dragons when he begins coaching next year, but he's certain of one thing.

"I'm really looking forward to going back and working with him,'' Bennett said. "Wendell's a great pro. He's a pleasure to have at your training place and a pleasure to have in your team. He just brings something.''
