It will be a tough ask for us, flying all the way across Australia to Hobart.

A more interesting challenge is to name a Stallone movie that is a classic ... 

"ADRIENNE!!!!" Definitely Rocky.

I see your John McEnroe thread disappeared picket. Gave me a hearty laugh. No one can accuse you of not being passionate!

The flight of a thousand miles starts with the pilot grasping the joystick, young grasshopper.

What has grasping his joystick got to do with flying?

The ground was softer than what we've been training on...

We don't like that shade of grass.

Due to our players being subjected to such a southern latitude at this time of year,they suffered a decrease of the full light spectrum required by the hypothalamus to regulate the endocrine and autonomic nervous systems.

Now there is a fair excuse. Would playing in ugg boots offset that?

Overseas travel is taxing, isn't it?

All that medical stuff above is appropriate. I'm still sans desert boots and the old in between toes fungal infection is playing up again. FMD, I try to lead a moral life but circumstances ... and events ... continually conspire to [censored] me up.

And .. as if matters could get worse my GP is pressuring me to undergo a rather ... err ..invasive shall we say test ...

FMD - It's enough to drive me to drink.

I believe you wouldn't be so bold as to make a veiled reference to what I heard referred to on that television program of high culture -RBT - as the sacred herb, would you Mr Leg?

Mr Leg I am very worried about you.

Your cynicism is beginnning to tell a sad story.

I have look to you through a lot of bad times for encouragement.

This seems sadly missing in 2016.

Please dont tell me you are about to leave the fold.

I could not go on without you.

Not leaving, just having trouble getting last week out of my mind.
