By pure coincidence I'm making a rare trip to Etihad this week due to previously arranged corporate seats.

Not only will I get to see the Truck debut, but I'll be safely separated from the scurrilous banana wielding innuendo loving feral factions that inhabit 'Land.

Win/win.

A win win is usually when both sides benefit. Are you saying the banana wielding innuendo loving feral Demonlanders are safer when separated from you? I mean, it makes sense....

Geez, have a wedding on. Shattered to miss it.

Hope he crushes his debut.

The wedding, obviously.

Fair to say the boy can play a bit.

I suspect he may still be suffering from Bubbly-Personality Syndrome which famously put-off some other teams' recruiters .  Seriously ,  as a   card-carrying cynical old coot , this time I had to brush at my damp eyes after watching him receive the great news .

You're kidding yourself Stu. Your lack of class will be exposed early and you'll get the arse out of the corporate seats fairly quickly!!

Not if he's all on his lonesome BBO.

Ossie Green, what a great name.

Calm down and take a deep breath everybody ............ we've all earned this!!

Did anyone notice the giant penis hanging down on Roosy's whiteboard.  Not sure if it is symbolic of CP5's debut, is a permanent marker from CS WW days or is something new they intend to bring out this Saturday.   

Anyway I plan to be there for the debut and I will report if I see any big or enormous things.  Here's hoping ?

Stop the lies about being on your own in a corporate box this week Stuie. I found you in the outer last week. Wait a minute, I took a picture, ah let me see..... here you are!

That chap wasnt happy with the out of bounds rule either. Or at least the umps application. I think I was doing the same thing at home. The poor kids leave me alone.

Time for Petracca to create a new history with the great no 5! Would love it if they got the Ox down to present it to him, he already sounds like a fan!

Getting "veeeeeeeeeeeeeeery" Bruce McAvaney about Saturday 1.45pm.

Spewing I'll be missing his debut, but excited to see what he can bring. The hype around him is so big, I hope he just takes it in his stride and does his thing on Saturday. 

Super exciting times to be a Dees fan. 

A Written excuse is required Jaded!
