NRL star Corey Norman wins $25,000 on the pokies – despite already bagging $800,000 a season

Highly-paid NRL star Corey Norman has won $25,000 on the pokies during a night out with mates, sending the group of football players into a frenzy.

The St George Illawarra Dragons player snatched the jackpot while hitting the town with fellow sporting legends Matthew Moylan, Nathan Peats, and Bryce Cartwright on Friday night.

Former Gold Coast Titans hooker Nathan Peats shared footage to social media of the group jumping for joy as gold coins bounce across the slot machine’s screen.

The group can be seen jumping up and down cheering as the punter’s friends slap him on the shoulder.

‘I just said he would win!’ one friend says, poking Norman in the chest.

The jackpot is only a fraction of the Dragon player’s $800,000-a-season pay cheque.

The 29-year-old plays as a five-eight for the NSW-based team, after joining them ahead of the 2019 season.

He is contracted to play with St George until the end of 2021.

Norman debuted with the Brisbane Broncos in 2010 before signing with the Parramatta Eels three years later.

During his decade-long career, he has been embroiled in a string of scandals.

In July 2016, he was fined $800 after pleading guilty to drug possession after he was caught with MDMA and muscle relaxants at The Star casino.

The same month two sex tapes he had sent to friends were reportedly shopped to media outlets in an extortion attempt.

Volunteers book hotel room for homeless man with SingapoRediscovers vouchers

NewsColony Volunteers book hotel room for homeless man with SingapoRediscovers vouchers © The Independent Singapore Singapore — A group of volunteers from the Mummy Yummy Singapore welfare organisation donated their SingapoRediscovers Vouchers to book a hotel room for a homeless man. The man, who was identified as Jayden, did not have a place to live while waiting for the Housing Board (HDB) to allocate him a rental flat. In a Facebook post on Mummy Yummy Singapore’s page on Wednesday (Dec 16), the volunteers said: “We used our $100 Rediscover Singapore vouchers to redeem hotel stay for him and successfully booked 9 days worth of stay at 3 days per voucher.” They added that they were unable to book a longer stay because of higher hotel rates over Christmas and New Year. The volunteers hoped that they would be able to bridge Jayden’s stay until he got a flat. “Thanks our government for giving us these vouchers which in return we can put them to good use for people in need,” th...

JANE FRYER: The judo master who made me the fall guy… aged 97!

NewsColony JANE FRYER: The judo master who made me the fall guy… aged 97! Jane Fryer is pictured above with Jack Hearn. ‘See, I’d get you round the neck and press on your Adam’s apple,’ he grins, silver moustache bobbing, white teeth flashing. ‘ And if I carried on with that, you’d be dead in a minute’ There is a startling moment in Jack Hearn’s extremely spick and span kitchen, when I’m standing between his trophy table and the wall and he’s telling me how he could finish me off with his huge, bearlike paws. ‘See, I’d get you round the neck and press on your Adam’s apple,’ he grins, silver moustache bobbing, white teeth flashing. ‘ And if I carried on with that, you’d be dead in a minute.’ We have already had a lively discussion about whether he should, or should not, throw me over one of his surprisingly wide shoulders on to his beautifully vacuumed living room floor. ‘I could throw you, of course I could! But I won’t,’ he says. ‘It’s not fair — you don’t know...
