The Sunshine Coast father- of-two died in June from a shoulder charge that led to an eight-week suspension of Broncos player Francis Molo. In a post on social media on Tuesday, Ackerman’s brother appealed for the NRL’s ban on the shoulder charge to remain. “Over the last few days I have read a few articles about Parramatta forward Darcy Lussick signing a footy jersey for eight-year-old Eels fan Osca Bonar at the Darwin Waterfront yesterday Picture: HELEN ORR the shoulder charge, ex foot- ballers have given their views,” he wrote. “Until my brother sadly Kelly boosted by new deal at Eels Coote throat-blow horror passed away I did agree with them, I loved nothing more FROM THE BACK PAGE and Brad Takairangi are back COWBOYS fullback Lachlan half, Coote bravely put his than seeing a good shot come “Things have fallen into in the centres for Parramatta Coote has spoken of his shock body on the line to stop a try- off and there was no prouder place nicely and it’s always one and Corey Norman will return after an accidental elbow from bound Papalii.
