Slartibartfast 18,117 Posted July 15, 2011 Posted July 15, 2011 Are there any racehorses in the Harry Potter stories. No, but they have hippogriff's. I'm getting the feeling you're out of your depth!! A Hippogriff (also spelled Hippogryph and Hippogryphe, Italian: Ippogrifo) is a legendary creature, supposedly the offspring of a griffin and a mare. Quote

Dockett 32 1,239 Posted July 15, 2011 Posted July 15, 2011 I think I may have backed a few that ran like the one outlined in the Hippogriff photo. Congratulations on your win Redleg. Quote
Whispering_Jack 31,367 Posted July 15, 2011 Posted July 15, 2011 I think I may have backed a few that ran like the one outlined in the Hippogriff photo. Congratulations on your win Redleg. And thanks for forgetting to pass on the tip. Quote
Tigers Dayz 2 Posted July 15, 2011 Posted July 15, 2011 My life is more fullfilled now that THE thread has gone. Any chance of similar for pro Malthouse threads? Or is it all about The Lord Of The Wings? Quote
Redleg 42,151 Posted July 15, 2011 Author Posted July 15, 2011 Write it real quietly Redleg.....(the name of the horsey) SHHHHHH. Noble Game at 12.45. Probably a bit short this one at 2000m but will run again at Caulfield on 30th over 2400m and that will be his day. Quote
Redleg 42,151 Posted July 15, 2011 Author Posted July 15, 2011 (edited) Disappointing night for us, Aussie appears to have ended his AFL career and the Bombers come from 6 goals down to win,after Johncock who was starring, went off, Then the Crows lost another player and played one short for the rest of the game.

Aussie ? Really ? wow. Quote
Redleg 42,151 Posted July 15, 2011 Author Posted July 15, 2011 Aussie ? Really ? wow. Our favourite female TV reporter on 10 news said that Aussie wasn't returning to Melbourne this year and wanted to play for a local Darwin team, the Thunder, next year. He will be delisted if that happens. Quote
Redleg 42,151 Posted July 15, 2011 Author Posted July 15, 2011 Can't believe it, we are 172 posts ahead of the new TS thread. That should last about 30 minutes. Quote

Maric will need some competition me thinks. Quote
biggestred 5,311 Posted July 15, 2011 Posted July 15, 2011 Benno I have not read it for 30 years but back then I found it very heavy going. Now that might just mean that HP is aimed at kids. Says something about me perhaps! i did too the first time i read it - i spent the whole time working out who was who and what was what etc etc etc. by the end of the 2nd read and the 3rd (yeah ive read it more than 3 times) it was an absolute joy and i could see what a masterpiece it was. HP is teenager stuff... not that i mind that, i just finished smashing the last of matthew reilys books. they are flat out! Quote
Redleg 42,151 Posted July 15, 2011 Author Posted July 15, 2011 ps adelaide are pants Bit unfair. Before Johncock got injured they were 6 goals up and he was their best player. Then they lost another player and played 1 short. You can't win playing short these days. Quote
rpfc 29,024 Posted July 16, 2011 Posted July 16, 2011 Bit unfair. Before Johncock got injured they were 6 goals up and he was their best player. Then they lost another player and played 1 short. You can't win playing short these days. I thought that was why the rule was brought in... Quote
Redleg 42,151 Posted July 16, 2011 Author Posted July 16, 2011 I thought that was why the rule was brought in... It was, but if you lose 2 players , like the Crows,did, you are then short 1 player. The rule helps clubs that lose 1 player as only 21 players on rotation are available to play. Quote
Redleg 42,151 Posted July 16, 2011 Author Posted July 16, 2011 I am a little embarrassed to raise this here as it originates on the other thread, but I won't post there, though I think it is an interesting point. Robbie F raised the issue that if you know who doesn't sign with GWS this year, then GWS, as they have offered him a contract can't take another uncontracted player this year.He said that if we signed up everyone we wanted to keep while you know who is deciding whether to leave, they couldn't make an offer to anyone else, until the decision was made. If we secure our boys then no one is available to them to grab this year. I don't think that is correct. I don't think they are limited in how many offers they can make, but only in how many they can actually take under this uncontracted player poaching rule. They are limited to getting 1 player but I don't know of any limit on offers that can be made. What Robbie is saying is that if we sign up everyone we want to keep and then you know who stays, we will not lose anyone to them that we want to retain and that the club may be using the next few weeks to do this. Can someone clarify this. Quote
Redleg 42,151 Posted July 17, 2011 Author Posted July 17, 2011 As the posts rise on that other thread they are back to fighting each other again. I wonder how long it will take till it is locked, that will make 3 so far. Quote

Looks like the anti-Scully thread has sprung a leak - the skipper appears to have put an axe through the hull. Quote
jabberwocky 2,301 Posted July 17, 2011 Posted July 17, 2011 Bruce's call during the Adelaide game Friday night suggesting that the reason Graham Johnsock was nicknamed "Stiffy" was due to his unusual running style. Made me giggle a little. Quote
