Mmmm....not sure??

He was late on set so they sent a search party to his house in Fitzroy .

They found the house a mess and Frank tied and gagged out the back(naked)

After they removed the gag that was his first comment.

I'm not certain whether I'm drinking too much or not enough. Maybe I'm just too old. Please humour me and explain.

If you come to a fork in the road, take it.

If you don't know where you are going, you might wind up someplace else.

Baseball is ninety percent mental and the other half is physical.

You've got to be very careful if you don't know where you are going, because you might not get there.

Maybe our club should adopt the second one as their creed -- there is not a lot of desire or vision around at the moment, but sometimes a bit of dreaming though at inappropriate moments like when the ball is heading your way or when the opponent has the ball!

I think those that bleat about our lack of development should take note.

Our problem is recruiting.

SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to
