I actually thought Battle of the Bastards (2nd last episode) was the finale and was pleasantly surprised on Monday at work to find out there was still one to go. 

Did anyone notice that Varys seemed to travel between places very quickly?

All of them, sometimes it is quite ridiculous, like little fingers Army just happen to be in the area.

    Little Finger's army was organised secretly by Sansa, in the next episode she refers to how she should have told Jon they were coming and that they need to trust each other, or something.

    not quite sure i would have been quite as forgiving ! there was a pile of bodies of Jon's army that you couldn't climb over and maybe Jon would have planned a little differently if he knew the Little Fingers army was just around the corner. A sorry and a kiss on the forehead wouldn't cut it for me.

    Yeah i know she organised it but some nerd has done figures of how far landmarks are from each other and it says that it is 70miles from Eyrie to the bloody gate and a further 170 miles to the border of The Vale alone, going by that it would be 1000's of miles to Winterfell whether you believe him or not.

    I think it's better watched in one hit, if you get the time. I watched yesterday's episode but plan on recording the rest and watching at once. The only issue is my little one is due around the time of the last episode, so I may never get to watch them.

    Thanks for the tip but I'm afraid the only help for me would be some sort of Venn diagram posted above the telly. Speaking of which congrats on the little "on" .

    You will watch even more now but it will be shows like telly tubbies. Enjoy.

    Left for dead  - nekk minut - he pops up in a religious cult chopping wood and then found by Beric Dondarrion. Glad he is still in the series  - my second favourite for the amusing quip behind Tyrion.

    He was wounded, left for dead. But it's the Hound. Of course a wound won't kill him. Great character. 

    I like this new Greyjoy [censored].

    I swear I see more people saying they haven't seen this show than people that watch it talk about it. I just posted on a mates post who said he hasn't seen one episode. Why is that worthy of making an announcement? You might love it.

    Had a bone sticking out of his leg didn't he? My favourite character in the show. I've always hoped he and the Mountain would have some huge face-off at some stage, but his vision now has me worried he'll end up meeting his demise at the hands of the White Walkers.

    He has to battle the zombie hulk Mountain. I've been hoping for that battle the whole time too.

    Ed Sheeran's cameo was absolutely cringeworthy and unnecessary. 

     

    I was hoping Arya would wear his face and quit the music industry.

    go sit in the naughty corner and think about what you said. Have you lost your mind.

    I am not an avid  TV watcher but there are two shows I don't miss - GOT and Last week tonight.

    For anyone like me who has a tough time remembering the previous seasons and all that happens there is a chap on youtube who goes deep into explaining each episode and how it relates to what happens in the books. His channel is full of cool GoT stuff, here's his episode 1 recap of season 7 :

    Not to say we are strict in our household but Mrs Bean does have a habit of asking questions in the middle of episodes.

    We have now made a rule - we give her a pen and paper and we address all written questions after the episode. Harsh but fair.

    Such a long wait and a huge anticlimax.

    I already miss Margaery and her beautiful big...eyes.

    Completely forgot everything that happen in the last few episodes of S6.

    Glad it is back but I hope it actually goes somewhere quickly this season.

    Gotta say I was a little underwhelmed with the first episode.

    • NON-MFC: Round 09

      Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.
